Even with exceptions and such, it is still worthless for many.  The
only true open source licenses are MIT/Boost, etc...  Hence why I
always release my source under the Boost license.  The GPL is such a
load of crap; if someone wants to donate code, they will donate it,
regardless of license.  Only thing crap like the GPL does is force
people who do not want to donate code to give low-quality crap code.
Over 15 years of programming I have noticed that the only code I
*want* from others are code that is freely given, not forced.  I have
very low opinions of GPL projects, in general they tend to be lower
quality then equivalent projects using more useful licenses like MIT
and Boost and so forth (as always, there are good examples of GPL
projects that have done well, but those are in a vast minority,
compare that to MIT style licensed projects).  I almost did not touch
Wt when I noticed it used GPL, but the only thing I will ever use Wt
for is for internal things, helper pages, etc... for managing things
on my network, I still say screw it for anything I might actually
release, will go back to C++ with FastCGI for that.

*cough*  Enough ranting.  :)

How many API differences are there between ExtJS 3.1 and the one Wt uses?
