I respect your opinion. We can start another thread on why GNU
GPL/MIT/BSD with your arguments. Don't take personnaly, but I
already answer countless times those arguments.

Let's try to keep this thread on the topic (this time I started a
specific thread!):

I would like to know how *exactly* (the details), of how
FRIGN was "hurt" by the GNU GPL licences.

A real case. I'm extremly serious about it.
Because it can change my mind on licences for good.
