This is old hat. GPL is like a proprietary license; you are not allowed to use it. So whining that you can not pick a GPL piece of code and run with it. It is similar to proprietary code. Use Microsoft's code and tweek it a bit, sell it and you will find lawyers on your way. If that is a"law"ed that I do not see why it is not a"law"ed when it is GPL code. |
