Do you even know what you are talking about? It is clear you don't.
1) You do NOT need to buy BK to use it on any open-source project,
as long as you are willing to have the changelogs posted on the
BK website. Since most open-source projects host their entire
CVS repository on a public website, this isn't any additional
restriction.
2) Nobody is forcing anyone to use BK to contribute to the kernel. The
kernel is still available as a tarball and incremental patches. Linus
is still accepting patches in email just like he always did (or didn't,
as the case may be).
Cheers, Andreas
