No discussion of new license here.  All copyright holders for the Dia code
have released their code under the GPL, and it would be infeasible to find
them all to change it.  If the original poster is not willing to
distribute Dia under the GPL, then he cannot distribute it.  I as current
maintainer can clearly say that he can distribute it all he wants as longs
as it is done in accordance with the GPL.
