Ouch!!!
But this does raise one of the issues I have with the GPL and the GPL family of
licenses - the constant confusion around what is and what is not permissible.
It's a gray area (possibly deliberately so), and most coversations end up with
numerous opinions being offered, all prefixed with "IANAL, but..". It's that
and the perception that the GPL ismore about ideology than software that lead
me to prefer BSD-type licenses for pretty much everything.
IANAL, IMHO, etc etc.
