Well, now that that is out in the open, I'm perfectly happy that you
have an opinion. I happen to disagree with it. You're free to be upset
about that all you like.

Additionally, my opinion is not based on any "exceptions" or "loop
holes". It's based on my understanding of the GPL, copyright,
licensing, and my own feelings about right and wrong and what should
be allowed or disallowed. I understand that many of you seem to think
of this as some sort of "change", however I do not see it as such.
This is the way it has always been, to me. I've been releasing GPL'd
code for the last 15 years. I know very well what the implications
are.
