License Zero: a new "mostly open source" license that shifts the power balance toward maintainers so we can get paid https://writing.kemitchell.com/2017/09/12/The-License-Zero-Manifesto.html …

I made up the term. The idea is that non-commercial users get a BSD 2-clause license but commercial users pay small fee for a license.
-
A CLI tool automates figuring out how much to pay / who to pay it to / produces a signed file as proof (in case of dispute later).
-
There is no DRM, nothing onerous. Clear prices/terms for commercial users. You can also grant free BSD-2 use to collaborators/friends easily
-
If the payment page goes away or author disappears for 90 days, then code reverts to BSD-2 for everyone automatically. So it "defaults open"
