I think this subject has come up on port-mips a couple of times. I think
the best suggestion so far was Jason Thorpe's idea to harrass Sony with
the GPL since they've got Linux dual-booting on their SDKs (the $17K
DTL-T10000) in workstation mode. Since they're selling these units they
should theoretically be packing in the Linux source. If we got some raving
nut-bunny like ESR going after their throats, they might be inclined to
kick down some source.
