Just thought I'd mention: It is possible for anyone involved in a FOSS
project to get pro bono legal advice from the SFLC, from actual lawyers
who are highly familiar with the legal aspects of FOSS licenses:

https://www.softwarefreedom.org

quote:
--------
If you are involved in a Free, Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS)
project in need of legal advice, please email h...@softwarefreedom.org.
When seeking legal advice, please use only this address to contact us
(unless you are already a client).
--------

I'm not sure if they are willing to help those who are trying to /avoid/
making a free software product, but they would likely be willing to
answer any generic questions about applicability of the GPLs, derived
works, etc.
