The differences between Unicon and Icon are currently GPL. As you
point out, since Icon is PD the authors of Unicon can choose to put
the entire Unicon source tree under GPL. I favour the GPL. (Other code
I write is also under the GPL.)

We welcome opinions on the licence that should be used. However, a
discussion of whether or not the GPL is more or less free than PD
(and/or BSD) is necessarily religious and belongs elsewhere.
