The Linux kernel isn't really a great example given that, while certainly opensource, it is primarily at this stage a commercial codebase given that a very signficant percentage of the contributors are doing so as a paid job. When getting paid, you go with the desires of the employeer even if they are opposite of what you would prefer.
