After all, if it s a GPL-enforcement No we seem to be back recycling the fact that certain people were making statements that might be construed, unanswered, as giving permission to violate the GPL. I'm merely reminding people that I've not waived my GPL rights, I've not said modules are somehow magically OK, and I don't agree with Linus. The GPL very clearly says that you can make your own unredistributed modifications and keep them that way.
