    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?

    John.
