You as author can assign copyright "for use" to multiple parties.  I
have assigned copyright to Star Office and also OpenOffice.org when I
signed a long time ago.

David,

GPL is very specific, you cannot create a license that says that you
cannot use it in a commercial instance.  You can say that you must use
it in GPL software only.  This means that it cannot go closed ever
again.  This is the normal way for vendors to "control" the release of
software.
