Well, now it is alpha. I think the term you want is not commercial but rather proprietary. There is nothing about the GPL that makes it not commercial. In any case, it is possible that most (all?) proprietary licenses might themselves be copyrighted so you may not be able to use someone else's license text as your own. Try looking at other people who have dual licensed their source code (like www.rrsoftware.com) They have a package called claw with both GPL and something more like a standard proprietary license.
