I've done this with Dramatiq[1]. The most surprising thing to me about this approach was how receptive companies are to it and how negatively some people on the internet seem to react to it. Inevitably, whenever the library comes up for discussion, one of the biggest topics ends up being the license and how the project is going to suffer for it.

Looking at your EULA (https://dramatiq.io/EULA.html), did you have it drafted by lawyer? I think I might need one for my projects but I'm not sure if I should pay a lawyer just yet.

That's really interesting. I was thinking of trying this but was a little put off by the massively negative reaction to AGPL you get online.

I think a lot of it comes from people who would like to use the software in their open source projects but are irritated that it isn't compatible with their license.

Roughly (range-wise) many commercial customers do you have?
