	GNU General Public License - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		This is an attempt to reinforce the mistaken belief, for the purpose of discouraging GPL acceptance, that if GPL licensed code is combined with a company's proprietary code, then that company could be forced to release their software under the GPL, which is false and impossible.
		If an entity distributes copies or derivative works of GPL licensed software without following the terms of the GPL, that may constitute copyright infringement, and the copyright holders of the GPL licensed software may be entitled to monetary damages, and can get a court to issue an injunction to stop further distribution of the software.
		If someone releases code or a binary program that is a copy or a derivative work of GPL licensed software without licensing it under the GPL they could be sued for copyright infringement.

	GNU General Public License : GPL
		The GPL was written by Richard Stallman in 1989, for the purpose of distributing programs released as part of the GNU project.
		Since the GPL was written, a great number of programs have been released under it.
		Most of the programs in the GNU project are licensed under either the GPL or the LGPL, including GCC, GNU Emacs, and the GNOME desktop.

	Daemon News 199905 : Restrictively Unrestrictive: The GPL License in Software Development
		The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
		When a program or work is released under a license, this means that you are in effect licensed to use the program.
		Programming is as much an art as a science, and it is not wrong to borrow from the ideas of others and to learn from those who have gone before us.

	Various Licenses and Comments about Them - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Because of the incompatibility, we urge you not to use the AFL for programs you write; however, there is no reason to avoid running programs that have been released under this license.
		It is incompatible with the GPL because of the requirement to send a copy to the original maintainer if he or she asks for one, which is a requirement not in the GPL.
		The GPL is not a member of that class, so the Jabber license does not permit relicensing under the GPL.

		However, the FSF does not hold the copyright for a work released under the GPL, unless an author explicitly assigns copyrights to the FSF (which seldom happens except for programs that are part of the GNU project).
		In the case, the enforceability of GPL itself was not under attack.
		The GPL has been described as being "viral" by Craig Mundie, chief research and strategy officer at Microsoft, who bases this comment on the GPL terms that all derived works must in turn be licensed under the GPL.

	Various Licenses and Comments about Them - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
		If you are thinking of releasing a program under Original Artistic License, please consider this revised version instead.
		Note that previous releases of the Eiffel license are not compatible with the GPL.
		The Apache Software License is incompatible with the GPL because it has a specific requirement that is not in the GPL: it has certain patent termination cases that the GPL does not require.

	Scyld and GPL
		Second, the use of GPL code in a _program_ makes that specific program a derivative work, and any distribution of the result must be under the GPL.
		The "derivative effect" does not impact the license of unrelated programs in a distribution.
		The GPL states that any sale of a binary copy must include a transferable offer to provide the source code for cost.

	GPL 3.0: Open Source Renews Its License - Reader Comments - CIO (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Posted: JAN 06, 2006 08:39:34 AM It is at the author’s sole discretion what license he/she releases code under: the mere existance of GPL 3 will have absolutely no impact whatsoever on code if the author of that code does not wish to use it.
		The use of the GPL 3 should only scare you if you plan to profit from someone elses work and have no plans to give back to those who made it possible.
		The GPL is not "viral" because its conditions only apply to code released under the GPL.

	SANS Institute - The Top 20 Most Critical Internet Security Vulnerabilities (Updated) - The Experts Consensus

		A list of participants may be found at the end of this document.
		We will update the list and the instructions as more critical vulnerabilities and more current or convenient methods of protection are identified, and we welcome your input along the way.

		Freshmeat software is "preferably released under an open source license." But it certainly is not all under the GPL.
		Is there a way to just get a list of GPL'd programs out of freshmeat?

	FreeDOS \| The FreeDOS Project (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		FreeDOS is made of up many different, separate programs that act as "packages" to the overall FreeDOS Project.
		Most FreeDOS programs are distributed under the GNU General Public License ("GNU GPL") which means they are not only open source software, but they are Free software.
		Because of this, FreeDOS would not exist were it not for all the people who contribute to it.
