Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.) That's absolutely right. GPL (2 or 3) puts no limits on usage, only on (re)distribution: you are allowed to (re)distribute if you grant the receiver the same rights which were granted to you under that license. (Actually, to be more precise, the limits are there by "normal" copyright law, and are lifted for you by the GPL). Cheers -- t
