At least the Professional edition costs money... But does it prevent
you from building Free software? The FAQ only says that it allows you
(as opposed to the free/Free version) to make non-Free software...

And the Free version is very Free (in a very negative sense, IMO) in that it
contaminates software that has been *developed* with the Free version, even
if you ship it with the Professional software... Scary... I'm glad Emacs
doesn't come with a license like that. <shudder>
