Hi Dave,
my name is Klaus Eisermann and I have been using comitup privately for one my own maker projects. Professionally am product innovation manager at LabMaker, a company striving to make open source scientific hardware readily available to the scientific community and to researchers not willing or able to build their own hardware. On our website www.labmaker.org we offer the key components of open source equipment in good quality for a fair price while providing all references to the open source repositories of the founding developers. Generally our founding developers feel very positive about having a commercial alternative source rather than having to reject requests from people not prepared to deal with manufacture.
I wanted to make sure with you that you have no objections if we started using comitup as OS for future Raspberry projects. As we deal mostly with scientists reluctant to dig deeper into technical issues the access point would ease setup a lot for them. Naturally we would post a link to your repository and the comitup project would stay entirely under your control.
Please let me know your thoughts

cheers
Klaus

First off, there is nothing in the license that precludes commercial use, as long as the source is made available. Your promised link would be sufficient if you make no private source code changes to the package.

Personally, I am pleased that the software is useful to you.
