Which part, then?  Name chapter and verse.

Maybe the spirit, as you see it.  But which letter?

But if the GPL is to be treated as a legally enforceable document, "live
by the sword, and die by the sword".  GPL-desk-pounders can't have it
both ways.

(This is also why it's not "GNU/Linux"... if RMS had wanted that, it
should have been written into the license.  He forgot, so the rest is
history. It's just Linux, dammit.)
