My company (Roaring Penguin Software Inc.) made a reasonably large
donation to the ClamAV development group a while back. I did not expect
any "ROI" or quid-pro-quo. I also doubt there's any legal responsibility
on Sourcefire's part related to these donations. It was pretty clear that
all your donation bought you was a "thank you".
However, I will be quite upset if Sourcefire takes Clam proprietary and/or
starts charging for timely virus updates, and I will request my money
back (on moral, not legal, grounds.)
Regards,
David.
