I'd prefer to use the word "professional" as a description of a user, 
his techniques and his dedication, rather than as an indication of 
whether he's doing his "day job" or spending time honing his skills or 
programming "on spec".

I suspect that I'm by no means not the only user who has a very 
indistinct line between "official" and "unofficial" work. At present I'm 
hacking some serial comms stuff which hasn't been commissioned by a 
customer but would likely be used as part of our support toolkit; much 
of the business is run using Delphi code and expertise built up on this 
type of project will help me port that off Windows if that looks 
appropriate.
