I don't need to be careful saying that, because I was careful NOT to say
that at all.  ;)

I'm sure suitable arrangements were made in each case, but the point is that
the people involved did not create their respective contributions in
expectation of financial compensation or under contract to BorCodeaGearo.

They created and shared their efforts as an act of community.

Take that "community" out of Delphi and I don't think that what's left is
enough to stand up against fully Open Source on the one hand and the
unrelentingly commercial on the other (and ironically that "unrelentingly
commercial" hand - Microsoft - are doing MORE to support a community with
their tools in terms of free/cheaper editions than Embarcadero).
