Well, when I asked him some time ago, he did require money in return
for allowing me to have bezels made, even though I said they were
just for giving away to 4.4BSD+ users.

He cited an example of a commercial company that had given him $N
so they could sell similar things.

I will probably ask him again, stressing the non-commercial aspect.
