I’ve seen people try this strategy before. Generally what happens (assuming the project gains adoption) is that eventually someone will independently implement one of the enterprise exclusive features and try to get it added to the free version. Either you lose one of the selling points for the enterprise version or you reject the PR and get bad publicity and risk people forking your software.


Does it also happen with AGPLv3?
