The solution, as I see it, is to wait for a couple of years until Larry drops his asking price of $12,000,000 to GPL it, and then ask a few of the large Linux distros to help raise that money.
Think about it - there will be more competition against BK in a couple of years time, so GPLing it to get more market share would make sense. That way it could compete against, E.G. Subversion, if Subversion becomes a viable competitor.
Larry - what are your thoughts on this?
