Should i punt on this, or is somebody else more qualified?  Do we even 
have somebody who speaks for the project in a legal capacity??

It's cute that he thinks this is an indie game.  Presumably he doesn't 
even know about open source, so some explanation would be required.  As long as 
the tarball [and COPYING file] are on the DVD, then the GPL is satisfied, right?
