> I've seen a ton of reticence around using anything with an OSS license.

Very true. This used to be a point of contention where I work, but was easily fixed by having an automated process for getting our lawyers to approve OSS code (with a Nuget or Github URL). We still have to do it on a per-project basis (not per-license), but we're using lots of OSS code now and I've made a little headway on open-sourcing some of our own stuff.

These days OSS advocacy isn't that hard, especially with the hard facts demonstrated by CoreCLR.
