You've been told that doing a yahoo search and posting the search is generally a bad way make a point... this is especially true if you doent even take the time to read the first hit..

FSF has the resources and the will to enforce the GPL and other GNU licenses, but only for software for which it owns the copyrights; GPL'd software owned by others must be defended by its owners, since the FSF has no legal standing to enforce the GPL for them.

I would have never found this w/out your help so thank you, you have provided evidence that the GPL is just a distribution license and does not grant stallman ownership of my copyright should I put it under that license
