Neither statement is helpful.

This most likely boilerplate that they send to everybody and
as we want to push Open Source use we should politely point them
towards the GLP2 license.

I agree with Steve on this.  It's no part of the LyX team's business
to be interpreting the GPL2 or any other licence.

    I wouldn't suggest replying to these guys.  They're trying to put
    the LyX project in the role of their lawyer, without payment.
    Personally, I think the GPL2 is clear enough for me to stake my
    business on, but if they have questions, they can hire a lawyer.

    Or, if they don't like the project not acting as their lawyer,
    they can start using a proprietary substitute, and REALLY start
    paying lawyers.
