Stian,
To the best of my understanding...
LMMS and all of its files are released GPL. Public domain samples are not
subject to copyright protection therefore they may use these samples as
they wish.
Caution should be used only for those re-selling the LMMS software, as
redistributing the samples by themselves legally must have a copy of the
license with them. It would be unlawful to redistribute the original files
under a different license or make derivative samples under a different
license.
If someone is selling sample packs created with LMMS, they should probably
contact a lawyer, however selling their completed tracks should be fully
allowed.
