As usual, that is irrelevant to the operation of the GPL, which is a license grant from the copyright holders to people who wish to copy and distribute the covered works. The only person who has any obligations imposed upon himself is the person doing the copying and distributing, who is one of the two parties to the GPL, the other being the copyright holder. _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
