The problem is that they ask for a subset of the rights granted by the GPL
including some "nothing else is granted" which is clearly wrong, since if it
is GPL there are also parts that they would have to follow (making available
sourcecode upon asking and whatnot). Yes, what they want is already a part of
the GPL, but if it is still GPL then there is a whole lot of additional things
that *they* would have to take into account which they try to stop with the
agreement limiting things on one part aspect of the GPL which we IMO can not
do without relicensing.

Not 100% sure how stuff has to be read here, I just feel that it might be
problematic/incorrect.
