I am not sure what Peter was referring to as IPR policy.
I reread it just to be sure.    (01)

I read it to say that anything contributed is open but not things that 
you talk about.
We talk about lots of non-open source tools.    (02)

In addition, I understood Piotr's comment to say that his tool was open 
source.
He was looking for others to help out.    (03)

It is being used in a commercial project but that is pretty common with 
most of the people here.
We frequently discuss projects that produce proprietary results.
Some use commercial tools and some use open source.    (04)

Did I miss something?    (05)
