The second question becomes broadly irrelevant
here if we are
prepared to accept Bob did convey his intention that the Impro-Visor
code be GPL'd, but Arnout and I were responding to the blanket "use of
GPL code makes it GPL" (which would imply the second question above).
And this I certainly agree with. Use of GPL code does not automatically make
another program GPL. It just gives the author of that code a legal headache
if the new program is not GPL.

Seems to depend of the interpretation what "usage" does mean. I will
indicate to the issue about LADSPA used by Non-GPL software. Use of GPL
code included to another program makes this other program automatically
GPL'd. I guess this is one of the subjects that is easy to understand
for people that aren't lawyers and even with broken English.
I'm off-line now.
