And I explained that your logic only applied to the parts which were not licensed under the GPL -- not to the parts that are. Anyways, there's another aspect to the GPL where it imposes a requirement that modification be restricted. It requires that the license document be provided with the licensed program, and forbids modifications to the license document. -- Raul
