The Biobricks foundation doesn't have any authority over uses of, or ownership of, non-BPA licensed parts. AFAIK the BPA explicitly grants right to commercial use, but only with some daft early-BSD like clauses such as "all packaging must have the Biobrick Foundation logo on it". It wouldn't be even close to "open biotech", by analogy with "open source" if it didn't permit unfettered commercial reuse.

I have been reading up on the BPA, and noticed that there are only 7 contributions under it.While looking for more information, I found this:..suggesting to me that there was talk of allowing commercial use of any BioBrick. However this is obviously not a legal document..Maybe it was part of conversations preceding the BPA?
