with that isn't that the terms aren't GPL-compatible, but that no
explicit license is declared. Without an explicit license, there is a
risk that, at some point in the future, the copyright owner could chose
to change the terms to be more restrictive - and you wouldn't have much
of anything to rely on at that point.<div>
<br></div><div>I've actually had that happen. In previous versions of
Oenology, I used icons from a set called IconSweets2. That set was
originally released under ambiguous terms much like the ones you mention
- but later, the copyright owner changed the terms, to restrict
redistribution. Now, I was in the clear, because I bundled the exact
terms under which I was conveyed the iconset, and I was free to continue
using the icons under those terms. But I decided to switch to
Genericons, just on principle.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As for those terms specifically: they address use,
but they don't address redistribution, or creation/distribution of
derivative works. So, just saying that something is "100% free to use
anywhere you like" doesn't make it explicitly GPL-compatible.</div>

I see questions about this license and that license from time to time,
but what about a resource the author declares 'license free'? Can that
be presumed to equal CC0, and thus be GPL compatible?<br>
