The products Fris posted were all GPL period. None of them had a separate license covering the materials you mentioned. Just to ensure you understand - NONE of the products Fris posted had any addition licensing beyond the GPL.

I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that you really don't understand and haven't bothered to learn about the GPL but every GPL licensed product is:

1. Free to modify
2. Free to share with your friends, resell, give away.
3. Free to use for any purpose.

This is EXPLICITLY provided in the GNU/GPL License and is not able to be restricted by the person or entity which has chosen to release software under the GPL.

I think to avoid accusations that you have an axe to grind that you should read:
