It seems odd to me how the blog post from the one founder is implying open open open,
and yet the business they do is closed licensed.

I noticed a promotion on upverter's site that confuses usual definitions of open hardware
with freeware:  http://resources.upverter.com/h/i/98756136-32-000-open-source-hardware-designs

I'm not sure if using their footprints would cause them to attack, or if they mean they would just
turn off your freecommunity edition account if caught not living up to their terms by selling
open hardware you designed with their tools.
