   It is not strictly true that the Simply Fortran folks make money off the   
   work of volunteers. They do not charge for the use of gfortran. Anyone   
   can install their software for free, and that installation provides   
   gfortran (and friends) that can be accessed from the command line   
   without any license from Simply Fortran. What they do charge for is   
   their IDE.
