Against currently.

The current technical problems are just a tiny bump in the road
compared to the >2000 revisions  we have in SVN.

We need a robust license(GPL is that) and we need to make sure that
all the things we want open stay open. Who's to say what the effects
of an exception would be? Where would it start? Where would it stop?

There are LOTS of closed source hardware debuggers out the(good ones,
we use them every day). The whole point of OpenOCD is that it is ... open.
