Maybe, maybe not.  I run into managers that don't get the open source
movement.  They would be much more comfortable with things likePython if
they were commercial.  These are the kinds of managers that you could say
that Python comes from PSA, and they would nod their heads even though they
have no idea what that means. But if you say it is open source by some guy
on the Internet, they would jerk into wise manager mode and start spouting
terms like risk management.

YMMV,
