Yes, I also think so. I was on their meeting in Vienna last year, where they
presented also their different licensing models.

But for the main part it remains open (see KDE), however many goodies are
subject to restricted licensing and payments :/ (which is somehow
understandable, but ...) 

I wonder how humanity could do this - looking back where everything was in
the year 2000 and where we are now, I can only say it is a pity - less
choice, less freedom, ideology rules together with some crazy people and
the nuclear clock is only 100sec before the final judgment :/
