[wp-hackers] 500 euros for WP + plugins

[Robert Deaton]

WordPress can't really be relicensed under something non-GPL compatible 
because it uses various bits of code from other GPL projects. Sure.. take 
out the IXR, Magpie, the WPDB class, and maybe other bits of code, and then 
it could be relicensed, but where would we be without all that?
