but wouldn't using a dual license (GPL and proprietary) mean that you lose the benefit of community participation? Certainly anyone can take the GPL code and do what they wish with it, but you, the original coder, cannot take community contributions and put it under your proprietary license. Not without that contributer's permission, and I can't imagine someone giving permission without at least asking for a piece of the pie, and some may refuse altogether on principle alone.
