Not that the open source Metasploit community has much to worry about.

H D Moore blogged that he will be taking on the role of Chief Security Officer of Rapid7 as well as Chief Architect of Metasploit.

"Rapid7 has committed to keeping the project open source, with no plans to change the license or the community development model," Moore stated. "What will be changing is how fast we add new exploits, integrate new features, and release new versions."

The other thing to remember is that since Metasploit is open source, if there are community members that aren't happy, there is always the option to fork the code.  I don't think that's likely to happen since Moore really is the guiding vision behind Metasploit and without him the project just isn't the same.

I am concerned that Rapid7 will now segment features that might have gone into open source and make them entirely proprietary. Then again considering that the just about anything can be reverse engineered, even if Rapid7 decided to keep some development proprietary, the community could always try and build the same functionality on its own.
