Larry, I already said this and maybe you missed it ( or maybe not ). What about having a GPLed ( or whatever other license ), read-only BK available for the ones that simply need to fetch stuff from BK repositories ? You don't have to maintain another repository for compatibility, and also you enforce BK usage.
