I belive that <in Rosen's words> The GPL grants an unlimited right to make copies but a conditional right to make derivative works (with some other words in the license about a limited right to make a "work based on the Program"). The only way a judge can interpret that license is to determine whether what is being made -- your A+B, for example, where A is the GPL- licensed work -- involves making a copy of A or creating a derivative work of A. If the former, then the license is clear that there are no reciprocal obligations. If the latter, then the license is also clear that the author of A+B must disclose his source code. <unquote> regards, alexander. Rating :
