Bill,
The closest I've seen is:

http://blogs.msdn.com/jensenh/archive/2006/11/21/licensing-the-2007-microsoft-of
fice-user-interface.aspx

Which allows you to license the "intellectual property rights in the UI".
However!! it does not allow you to license the code!

A number of control vendors offer commercial versions of the Ribbon that you
can purchase. A number of these I understand have signed the license.

If you find one please let me know, I plan on compiling a list of Ribbon
controls...

Signature

Hope this helps

Off the top of my head, these guys have implementations of the Ribbon

- DevExpress http://devexpress.com
- Infragistics http://infragistics.com
- DivElements http://divil.co.uk

As for for free alternatives there was one some time back called
Mentas Ribbon. Get it here
