Open source is by definition of the phrase, as well as in practical cases, a program whos source is available. Nothing more.
There are many prominent open source programs that also exist as a licensed product.
That's why I have always believed free software (FOSS) to be the other definition where the software cannot be licensed or sold for a profit.
