It is stunning to see programmers who are used to formal, rational thinking, becoming irrational. ;-) ;-) The *combination* of someone else's work and yours is not your own work! The resulting work is *not* the sole intellectual property of either contributor. You may have the right, though, to do business with the resulting work without consulting this some else, if his/her license says so. (E.g., one does not have intellectual rights in Microsoft's runtime components even though their license text says that one may distribute them with an application.) Respect the wishes of this someone else! If someone is more generous than GPL etc. would imply, it is their choice. They own the rights. And I think we are not to discuss their generosity, or accuse them of the lack thereof, if so perceived by us!
