For some of us, doing volunteer work on non-GPL projects is a
turn-off.  I don't mind writing code that goes into proprietary
products, but I expect to get paid for it just like the vendors of the
products expect to get paid.  If I'm working for free I expect the
code to stay free.  This is why I don't contribute code to Python on
any scale.
