This appears to be very similar to paragraph 3 of the Berkely license of the 1990's....use our software and Credit us (UCB or OpenSSL) for our code.
Not much to ask. ;) Surely we can credit folks for their work that they have Allowed us to use. Surely the GPL is not written to deny People credit for their work. Please bear with me, but where in the GPL is this prohibited?
