What are the chances you're writing a piece of software that is so useful and cross project that you're not releasing as open source or a Gem? I don't think 37Signals would be doing any better today if they had kept Rails to themselves. You can worry about this mythical case but it's incredibly unlikely to happen and will more likely hurt your ability to do work.

No need to deal in probabilities, just use an MSA that makes sense--it will cost exactly the same amount as one that doesn't.
