IMO, there's absolutely nothing wrong with a fork. In fact, were I

by now.
Tss, tss. You can't change the GPL license to anything that is
'stricter' or 'freer'.
Cheers,
Jean-Michel.
Licence changes can be made... look at Cistron Radius. They started
with Livingston's code, which was under the BSD license. Once their
code had been completely rewritten, they did an audit and found that
they were no longer using the original code base and made the decision
to move to the GPL. Why they wanted to move to a more restrictive
license is beyond me (and this thread), but they did it.
