"and we're able to get recognition for our IP" Well we can't recognition your IP unless you point specifically to it. "and to just take this "don't ask, don't tell" methodology [toward IP], we don't think that works" Well we're asking for you to point specifically to your IP and tell us why you consider this your IP but your not telling. So how is this really suppose to work. "allows companies like ours to be able to get compensation when their IP is showing up inside Linux" Well there's the rub. We don't want your IP unless you share it under the terms of the GPL. "that there would be a process with Linux to ensure that the [code] that is going in there is valued and IP-protected" There already. It's called Copyright and the GPL.
