Either that, or if I put it into spkg, it can be gpl, I don't care, because spkgs will be used in Sage that is GPL. What I care is that my programs can be used as BSD if someone wants (e.g. without Sage). >> I can use BSD and when I >> include one package that bundles everything, I will just use GPL2+ and >> I should be fine. > > Yes, absolutely.

As Brian said, we don't do such things. Besides it's not even my way of thinking to change somebody's mind, so if I use your work, I use it under the conditions that you set. If I don't like it, I will have to use somebody's else work or do the work myself.
