Yet when defending itself in Wallace v. FSF lawsuit, the Free Software
Foundation went on record with this:
------
Plaintiff's mischaracterization of the GPL in his Response has no
bearing on the resolution of the pending Motion to Dismiss because
the Court can examine the GPL itself. "[T]o the extent that the
terms of an attached contract conflict with the allegations of the
complaint, the contract controls."
------
