The GNU GPL is really an easy to understand license. Maybe if you pose
an articulated question here, you might get a clued answer from this
list.

The GNU GPL was `invented' by RMS with no formal legal training. You
too can interpret it very easily. One need not be a lawyer to
understand these things.
I have noticed legal experts struggling to get the concept of free
software correctly. But they are very quick to notice the dangers of
the terminology `open source'.
Please be patient and do read the archives.
