I understand the issue.  I was being slightly tongue-in-cheek, but
mostly referring to the clean-slate proposal where we pick a license
and build a new LinuxCNC out of the parts of code with clear
ownership.  I wanted to indicate I am open to changing the license on
anything I've written to whatever works best for the project.

...and I don't think there has been much editing of the code I've
written by anyone besides myself, although that is obviously prone to
change if the new ARM stuff stays around for a while.
