The world is talking about GNU/Linux and Free/Open Source Software
This week at LWN: Much ado over licenses
Selling a new license to the kernel developers was always going to be an uphill battle.

Given the immense practical difficulties involved in changing licenses, there would have to be a strong incentive to get the developers to even try.
