There are sometimes good reasons to not make software copyleft. You shouldn't say that you will never work on non-copyleft software.
yes, i agree e.g if FBI or ATF wantes to use some secret software to track down terrorists by intruding their privacy to protect Americans. in that case, it is really essential to keep software non-free. see down here.
It's fair enough to say that you will never work (directly) on non-free software though.
this is exactly what i meant.
GNU has it's own micro-kernel it's called GNU Mach, this is the official micro-kernel of the Hurd. Maybe you should work on that?[1] I don't think there are too many people who are willing to work on a completely new micro-kernel, and you'd be hard pressed to write a decent one by yourself.
IIRC, GNU Mach is derived from CMU Mach. so we have not built our own from scratch according to our own design principles.
