I see no reason why the tidying couldn't be done in public. Why not make a public repo that's closed off to external influence until it's "tidy" enough?

The same way that you can't just unilaterally decalare an MIT licensed project is GPL without ensuring that all of the code was dual licensed or covered under a CLA.

I know that in Windows-land, it's _very_ common to use proprietary UI libraries like Telerik UI[0], or devexpress [1] [0] https://www.telerik.com/purchase/individual/winforms.aspx https://www.telerik.com/purchase/individual/winforms.aspx [1] https://www.devexpress.com/ https://www.devexpress.com/
