licensing information, as well as in my Norman Walsh book "Making TeX

Does it use a GPL? If it had a compatible licensing scheme, it would

seem to make sense to use as much of the TeX work as possible.
Information about the licenses used by the TeX related softwares
are available on this page:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/licenses.html
The core of TeX, the files written by Donald Knuth, doesn't seem to
be covered by a particular license apart from the README file

The TeX FAQ confirms that TeX simply is free:
