Don't insist. The FSF has been clear many times in the past, insisting that
the GPL allows no sublicencing, except through a separate explicit licencing
agreement with the author (i.e. another licence, not the GPL). Such separate
agreement is possible but completely separate, and is incompatible with the
GPL so users have to choose: the separate agreement needs to confirm
together that the second licence terminates any prior GPL agreement between
involved parties.
