"Free software does not mean 'gratis';" can be read as "Free software does not HAVE to be 'gratis';" If you don't mind giving your source code away, you still have the LGPL option without giving up your intellectual property. Its very handy, but I think Stallman regrets the LGPL. He changed the acronym to mean "lesser" GPL rather than the original "library" GPL.
