Did you ever consider, for example, _not_ assigning yourselves the copyright in the program's About box? This is exactly what happened with Rosegarden for "OOM1" -- fork the project, provide a new theme, new keybindings and some new features, change all identifying names, remove our copyrights, and put up a promotional page about it with no reference to Rosegarden. In that instance the credits reappeared after I objected, and I was prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps the MusE team are more relaxed about attribution than I am, or perhaps they decided they'd prefer not to be identified with the forked software at all. I don't know. (No, it is not legal to take someone else's GPL software and identify yourself as the copyright holder.)
