One clear issue: I could find no reference to source code availability on that web-site. Possible second issue: Does the GPL require that GPL'd works are identified as such? The first issue is a requirement of the GPL, but I'm not sure if GPL'd works need to be identified as such when being redistributed. One of the recognised FG project team members _needs_ to get clear legal advice regarding this sort of issue. It keeps cropping up and each time it happens no one has a definitive answer to it and it leaves people running around like offended headless chickens. The GPL specifically allows redistribution of GPL'd works, and for profit - the only real issue here is whether this distribution conforms to the requirements of the GPL. It's got people in a flap too many times already - don't guess - find out.
