I guess that the answer is: provide your own.
This is the GPL plague: saying to developers that as long as they
provide gratis something _they_ owes something to whom take it.
(Communism: give me your watch and, in fair exchange, I will tell you
what time it is.)
It's fortunate that it is still possible to make closed source
development, because, if it was not the case, I would have ceased
totally to write code---and, if I still publish open source, this is
because _I_ owe something to the developers who wrote code that _I_ use
(I owe to the Bell Labs for Unix and Plan9; to BSD CSRG; to D.E.K.; to
the original CERL GRASS developers etc.; counting, this is not a lot of
people...).
