I believe you misunderstand me.  I was in no way claiming
anything about the GPL or Richard; I was pointing out what
seems (to me) to be a flaw in a proposed alteration to the
GPL.  GPL != GNU, but Alex's suggested change seemed (again,
to me) to be treating it as GPL == GNU.  I was merely pointing
this out.
