I don't think any one disputes that they have the absolute right to do as
they please. I am _VERY THANKFUL_ of course that the code is released to the
public at _all_ even under GPL!!
I am just saying that GPL Ada packages are of limitted use to myself and
others and is no longer a contribution to Ada advocacy, but to FSF advocacy
(something I also agree with, but my priorities are for Ada). Since Ada is
such a small player, the advocacy that FSF gets is negligable and certainly
not of much value.
