Also, given that several of the copyright holders in the kernel are dead, I don't think we will be able to obtain permission.



I can do a ceremony and call them with an eagle bone whistle and a Califonia Condor Feather. We can then ask them directly.
GPL2 is fine if the kernel stays that way for my projects. moving forward, the patent retaliation clause is a great idea.

I called them at the sacred fire in my ceremony room with music from the bones of an eagle. They said whatever concensus is reached
by the majority if fine with them. One of them said something about a woman wearing a crazy hat with a white ostrich feather in it
he did not care for, but that was it.
