I see no reason why not.  As long as the use patterns on my probes do not
change, I lose nothing, and you are welcome to make money.

I plan to use Atlas for my MSc thesis.  I think this is a selfish as you
selling measurements to people who want to know when their hosts are down.

In any case, you will need credits to run measurements, so you must host
probes, which we non-commercial guys can use <evil laugh>
