And, of course, commercial *use* is also allowed by the GPL and can't
be forbidden. Another illegal restriction. But what is the consequence?!
That one can ignore the restriction? I'm afraid that's not the case
before the law. Rather, the offender (Mark B.) loses the right to use
and distribute *any* GPL'ed software. Linux, KDE, GNOME, ...
... *FlightGear*! I'd say he should be educated (with a baseball bat :-).

Nope. (I'm regular Groklaw reader since years. Just lurking, though.)
