Why don't you release Cashdera as FOSS?  

The copyright notice caught me off-guard as well, as my main understanding 
is/was that this list is for FOSS based gnucash and contribution that embodies 
spirit of FOSS. FOSS application data can generally be used in proprietary 
software, but that breaks the spirit of adhering to FOSS and specifically how 
this board operates.

The major dismay felt here is that the initial post coming across was really 
contrary to the spirit, and it wasn't abundantly stated as closed sourced 
upfront until reading T&C.

FOSS is freely discussed here. You said Cashdera is not FOSS.
