I revised the symbol license text to reflect some of the suggestions

put it onto the gEDA webpage this weekend some time.
This all looks good Stuart.
Thanks!
If we use some community based collection of symbols, there should of
course be the option for the author to use whatever license they want on
their symbols - but having this license as a requirement for anything
_bundled_ with gschem is great.
Yeah, ideally gEDA/gaf symbols and PCB footprints would use this (or
equivalent) verbiage, so folks downloading the base software tools
would get the GPL + exemption licence. Then, folks like John Luciani
or contributors to gedasymbols.org could release parts under their own
preferred licence on their own websites/webpages. In that case, it
would be cavet emptor for the user downloading those third-party
files.
