Great idea. That guy deserves it. Though I suspect he would be too modest to accept the money since he GNUed all his creations.

That does not necessarily imply modesty, there is another MacArthur grant winner who GNUed all his creations... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman#Recognition

In the days before KVM, he wrote a paravirtualization kernel module for QEMU (kqemu), gave away binaries and tried to sell the source. I don't know what happened with that business.

Indeed he also wrote QEMU.
