Yeah...spent a good part of the day reading and rereading the GPL faq, as
well as other sources.  Appears to be pretty logical about the whole
thing.  You can redistribute things licensed under the LGPL, PHP, and
similar licenses, but GPL is a no-no, unless you follow the GPL or a GPL
compatible license with your own code.

Thanks,
John
