At what part of that does it apply to developing an XUL application on
top of an XUL motor?  An XUL application is not work based on an XUL
motor, but work using an XUL motor.  If you read the small print you'll
see there is a difference.

The GPL license of an XUL motor implies nothing to the license of the
XUL application in the same way that just because you write an
application that runs on Linux you do not have to GPL said application.

Wake up.  You're in a land of noo naa.  Emailing in your sleep.

You may be intelligent but you do not understand the GPL.  

But, hey, you think I'm a moron.  Fine... email RMS stating your legal
opinion on how the GPL affects applications.  He'll personally set you
straight on the matter.
