This will never happen. Even if there is just _one_ GPL idealist who
doesn't give a rat's ass about receiving money for their kernel code,
you can't get your license. Given that, I know several people who
wouldn't give you a license no matter how much you offered them
for it.

Then their code could be removed from the snapshot, and the folks who were more
interested in being smart rather than being right would get the $$$. That's easy.
