It matters not whether it was gave or taken, GPL=GPL either way, I shall contact MR. Stallman, as and when I get some legal advice, I AM DEFENDING THE GPL, YOU ARE BULLYING, SUBVERTING AND TWISTING THE GPL. I am a staunch advocate of the FSF.

        One other thing. No-one GAVE NVidia GPL'd material. It's available for
them to use it, just like it is for us. If you have a problem with that, you
may want to take it up with GNU, the FSF, and RMS, if you want to deal with
all the slack. But that's your fight, not ours.
