You should first read these links from Prof. Eben Moglen the eminent
legal advisor to the Free Software Foundation:
Free Software Matters: Enforcing the GPL, I by Eben Moglen
http://emoglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/lu-12.html
Free Software Matters: Enforcing the GPL, II by Eben Moglen
http://emoglen.law.columbia.edu/publications/lu-13.html
Kunze Letter
http://www.nccusl.org/nccusl/meetings/UCITA_Materials/kunze-ucita.pdf
The learned Professor unequivocally makes it CRYSTAL CLEAR that
copyright licenses are NOT contracts.
Pay no attention to contract interpretation or scope of grant of rights.
Simply accept everything Prof. Moglen says as gospel truth about the GPL
and linking. Also forget about patent infringement as the GPL
neutralizes all patent claims in GPL'd software.
All your code is covered by the GPL as is your wife, the kids, and the
family dog.
Believe him as do eighty percent of the World's open source developer's.
Just Believe.
