In any case, anybody who would have bought one has already been scared off by the possibility of not being able to use it during competition, so it's not even worth doing at this point. Kind of a shame, but getting the license is a good idea in the long run anyway.
Why not go the other route and just ask FIRST HQ if you are a vendor or what you would need to do to become one.

I'm sure HQ wants people making products for FRC teams. You may not be able to meet their terms now (or maybe you are) but you might be able to in the near future.
