They wouldn't, even if we asked them to. They would do it once and switch
to some incompatible Cisco SSH which only works with PuTTY. The goal we
have reached with everyone using OpenSSH is that they are actually
interoperable with the rest of the SSH world. You cannot convince vendors
to be more open by forcing them in the way the GPL people do; this will
only drive them into the hands of the other commercial providers.
Nothing has boosted the spread of VxWorks like the GPL violations project.
