I also find the wording confrontational. "Why take risks with open
source Lua" implies that the open source nature of Lua is a problem to
be solved. Will you be selling a closed source version of Lua to "solve"
the problem?
I'm not saying this to disrespect AS - I already have a lot of respect,
having seen how they helped (and funded!) the Perl community. I think
it's probably just a case of sloppy editing. If the risk you're trying
to ameliorate is the need for legal compliance, find a way to say that;
don't blame it on "open source".
