IMO, the better approach would be for all interested teams to band together & negotiate the liberation of P96.
That would be better for everyone, since further development of P96 would finally be possible.
Some people in the community are just control freaks and prefer to keep 15 years old code in their closets.
The model that was originally used by Tobias possibly could have some sense back in 1995 when Amiga market was much, much bigger and there were actual companies doing new development for classic Amiga. That licensing model is completely unfit for the current market and limits access to P96 only for the biggest players. I considered developing a new RTG card for classics but I am unwilling to participate in this absurdity.
Currently, we are all just hobbyists working on Amiga stuff whenever our time permits.

How about a bounty to open P96 code? If the money is really an issue, this could solve it.
