However, it's probably worth noting that there's a big difference between
[a] using the GPL verbatim and providing some additional license, and
[b] using some other license which happens to include terms from the GPL.
This thread was based on an instance of [a]. [When this thread started,
that instance was non-distributable because of a silly mistake. It has
since been fixed.]
I would hope that this is obvious -- we'd have serious problems if it
were not.
