My posting was not about license at all, it was about the non-debugability and the wasting of time (compared to spending time on bugs where the developer does have a chance). Maybe you're one of those nvidia fanatics who wants to demand that all kernel developers spent all their time on your toy without you having to pay anything, even if it's not a useful way for these people to spend their time in general.
