What kind of a stupid POS would one have to be, to claim, as "RJack"
does above, that one can take, for free, a bunch of copyrighted
software, use it as the basis of your product, then being required
only to make redunantly available the original bunch of of software
that you took (which, obviously, was *already* available from wherever
it was taken).

An *incredibly* stupid POS, IMO...

I wonder what the anti-GPL cranks are being paid to make public
jackasses of themselves on these issues.
