I my self and the company that I work for want to offer as much back to

My company has invested time and money
I am curious what the community's reaction is to this and ask for and
encourage responses with regards to when is it appropriate for
individuals / companies to move from "free to the public" support to
"reasonable rate commercial support".
I for one can not speak for the community, but the three points
highlighted above do not add up. Here is the scoring:
Community Your Company
Cost of help offered free paid
Time/money investment large large
2 : 1
It is OK to charge for any provided service, good or bad. It is not OK
to label this as "giving back as much as was offered".
