No, not at all. First, it isn't new: it's just the "GPL is viral" classic FUD, then it's still incorrect: when you're ill from a viral infection, you didn't choose it but a developer can choose whether he wants to use GPL code or not. Incorrect analogies are really, really nasty stuff, please don't propagate this FUD. renoX
