Dixon,

Check out what Jabber.com has to say about the Jabber
project being open source:

http://www.jabber.com/open_source/enterprise.shtml

An open source project is a community.  Communities
aren't controlled by a single corporation, which is
why the Jabber Foundation is a great thing and the
Foundation should control the use of the name
"Jabber".
