Redistribution and use in source and binary forms is NOT a grant of
sublicensing rights, you silly dak.

"A sublicense is a grant by the original licensee to a third party (the
sublicensee) under the patent or other technology rights granted to the
original licensee by the licensor. There are key issues to consider,
such as whether a licensee will have the right to sublicense with or
without the licensors consent, how sublicense income will be shared,
and whether any sublicense will survive a termination of the license
agreement.
Consent. Licensees who are granted non-exclusive licenses generally do
not receive the right to grant sublicenses, in part because the
potential sublicensee can obtain a direct license from the licensor. In
fact, it is generally held that a non-exclusive patent licensee cannot
grant sublicenses unless it is expressly granted such right. However,
exclusive licenses commonly include a right to sublicense, at least with
the consent of the licensor. "
