IANAL, and I don't think most of us are either, but this is a legal matter that might eventually get tested in courts. Now while it's true that all manner of bizarre things have been decided in courts, I suspect that the viral nature of GPL and variants might be tossed out as it tries to undermine the copy rights of others. Basically it tries to impose copying restrictions on third parties copyrighted intellectual property that the owner of said copyright material may not wish to impose. As such, I'll state that all my contributions to the projects generally known as Enlightenment Foundation Libraries and Enlightenment DR17 where made under the BSD licence that applies to most of it. It was my intention to have my contributions be licensed under that BSD licence. Anybody wishing to place restrictions outside of that BSD licence on my copyrighted contributions best get a lawyer. Yes I know, this is all silly, but people do take this shit seriously. Just ask Google.
