The manifesto talks about goals and ideals. It does not talk about
the ideal means to achieve these goals. Having GPL being a contract
demanding that you hand over software, heart and soul to the FSF is
probably not going to help much.
The way it is, GPL causes several freedoms to persist upon
redistribution of the same and derived works, without forcing
consequences for the author.
This is a very reasonable expedient, IMHO, for helping people to
further the goals of the FSF as expressed in the manifest.
