I do not think it is unreasonable to ask and to let a company, which
creates commercial software, to evaluate their licensing in order to make
their products more attractive to consumers. I think that permitting
distributions via packages and OpenBSD is not such a hard request, though
there may be valid reasons for not allowing such. Asking them to go Open
Source is another matter entirely.
