I believe we can state it this way ...

The GNOME Foundation believes in free software and promotes free software but that does not mean that GNOME is anti-proprietary software. We
believe, promote, use and write free software.

We are excited when companies and individuals use GNOME technologies because we believe it brings us closer to our mission and vision of a free desktop (or mobile interface) accessible to everyone. Sometimes those companies are proprietary software companies and while we hope that they move closer to free software in the future (and that we are helping them do so with the use of GNOME), we are delighted that they have chosen to use GNOME and will help them and their customers.
