On a more pragmatic level, many people are uncomfortable contributing
to projects not licensed under the GPL for the sake that their
contributions could be used in a non-reciprocal manner.

I'm not against a Jingle reference library or SDK to popularize the
extensions, but speaking for myself, I'm not going to help with bugs
or optimization when people can just leech my contributions for
software I consider unethical.
