You are 100 % about GPL, and I will of course stick with it.

But understand my concern :
Kirkby massively renamed Scid files and put (C) with his name on files 
he did not changed a single character.
He made his best to prevent me from working on Scid despite many users 
would like me to continue my work.
So, he's capable of taking my work, put his name on it, change all Scid 
tokens to chessDB and say "look at the great work I did !"

I try to stay as objective as possible here. Personaly my greatest 
reward would be Shane's coming back and accepting at least some of the 
enhancements I coded into Scid.
