Yes, he’s only following a licence and accepting help. Developing software collaboratively is not “big chunk of the GNU philosophy”, because that can be done with and within proprietary software (what is important is this being possible for everyone, in the specific case maybe not even collaboratively but individually on its own, or fighting all the day arguing, as they want).
