i.e. this project will be accepted by the open source community at large and

, but can you explain to me if i would contribute to OBOS why the following
would not hold:
"If i contribute code other companies will use it in there software, making
my code proprietary so that i can no longer use my own code anymore."
Also:
"If others can just take my code and make it proprietary how will this
benifit the OBOS project?"
