Replying to [comment:24 kini]:
> AFAIK the licensing classification of software applies not to the body
of its source code in general but to a particular act of distribution of
that body of source code (though open source projects often offer public
downloads of their source code with the understanding that each download
of the code is taken to be governed by the license specified in the
COPYING file and referred to as the license "of the software" itself). By
"special dispensation" I meant the obtainment of a copy of the source code
from the copyright holder under a one-time transferral stipulated to be
under GPLv2+, even while the public download link was perhaps not governed
by GPLv2+.
I don't understand what you're trying to say here. The GPL talks both
about running the code (I guess this is what you refer to when talking
about "the body of its source code in general") and distributing the code.
Running and distributing are two essentially independent things, but both
governed by the same license.
