I was going to publish a very nice i2c master which I wrote for use in a cpld but philips want a licence fee for any hardware implementation.

Surely you only have to pay that if you want to actually call it "I2C"

Why don't you do like so many others and just call it "JTW" (Jez's Two-Wire) or something, and just drop subtle hints that it might happen to work with "true" I2C parts...?
