Comment:

 Wordpress 3.0.5 Package (http://wordpress.org/latest.zip) technically
 violates the GPL again with the shipped Akismet code (have not checked
 RC4).

 So can someone from Automattic/Akismet pro-forma reinstate rights again
 because of the release?

 (I thought this would have gone fixed prior next WP release, please ensure
 for 3.1 or perhaps next RC).
