Matt Hines digs deeper into the Sourcefire-ClamAV deal

Matt Hines my friend from InfoWorld (and a rabid Red Sox fan, but we all can't be perfect), has a good article up with more info on the ClamAV deal.  According to Matt, Wayne Jackson, CEO over at Sourcefire said:

While Sourcefire has promised to continue to distribute versions of ClamAv software that meet the parameters of the open source general product license (GPL), the OEM licensing model will not necessarily adhere to all elements of the GPL, Jackson said. The arrangement fits the same model Sourcefire has pursued with Snort.

I think this is pretty much exactly as I wrote on Friday and what many expected.  I am glad to see Wayne stand up and say it clearly.  This way let no one say later that the Sourcefire people were not up front about it from the get go.  Again, if you are bundling open source in your product, I think this is a clear call that you have to change your business model.
