Really? What would make a group of developers wanting to develop
a -database engine- for free? Some party needs to step up and pay
those people, else you're beloved product will go no-where.

Open source, yes, but "free", no way ... 

When it comes to "free usuage", people can go to PostgreSQL or
Firebird, hey, some parties might even be better off, cause those
two don't need a license for commercial usuage!
