well license it like Apache and it is then lost in IIS!

Can you please tell me what part of the Apache/HTTPD has been lost?
Please point me at the parts of code that are missing and I will gladly
start hacking away on Apache code to get it back.
I said "effectively" stealing as the people who GPL'd the code do not
want it to be used and improved in a closed source environment.
All the licenses are there to be understood and used as required. If you
use GPL, you are saying you want the software to be improved and those
changes made available to everyone who cares. Apache code imported and
improved in IIS is lost to the community. That is the reality of your
views. My view is to use the appropriate license and be glad we have
such a diverse choice. That is true freedom.
