>> Exactly how is giving someone unfettered rights to my code not giving my rights away? I couldn't quite follow you're reasoning there.
Them's the breaks, but your code is still protected by the GPL and you still get to keep all of your own rights. Aside from that, you get to contribute back to a great project that is clearly helping you out (else you wouldn't be writing code for it).
Regardless of whether Digium have always worked that well as an open-source company, Asterisk is a really high-profile project that has had a very positive effect on Linux.
