Maybe you cannot earn much from chess engines but I think that you can earn something because there will always be people who want to have the strongest engine or engines at similiar level. If people will be allowed to make some money by selling improved fruit and release the source only year after doing it then I believe that people will be able to make some money legally from fruit(I am afraid that people will try to make money illegally from fruit as long as fruit is free source code and I see no way to stop them without stopping the release of fruit as source code because if patriot is not sold by one company it may be sold by another company that does not care about the law).
