Sure, let the GPL thing die. It's obvious you don't know what you're talking about. Let's keep the other topic alive though. I'm still very interested in what Nintendo thinks about this. I also sent them links to you claiming ownership of the mushroom, as well as the live site where it can be found.

There are three which I do not have, I have the rest of them. I know that all but three are GPL. I highly doubt that the three I don't have are commercial proprietary software.
I know you don't really understand the GPL but perhaps reading the officlal GNU/GPL site will clear things up.
The developers who told you they are unhappy are simply trying to hoodwink you. They're trying to have their cake and eat it too. They are releasing commercial software and promoting it as being GPL but when someone actually exercises their rights under the GPL they seem to want to cry about it.
In some cases it might be that they just don't fully understand the ramifications of GPL licensing or perhaps they just want to benefit from the promotion of their product as being GPL while never intending to honor the license. In any case, they are the ones in the wrong because legally GPL software once released must remain GPL in the form in which it was released.Comment

A typical example of a derivative work received for registration in the Copyright Office is one that is primarily a new work but incorporates some previously published material. This previously published material makes the work a derivative work under the copyright law. To be copyrightable, a derivative work must be different enough from the original to be regarded as a "new work" or must contain a substantial amount of new material. Making minor changes or additions of little substance to a preexisting work will not qualify the work as a new version for copyright purposes.Need Mushrooms Designed? Gimme-WebsiteComment

GW Nobody is trying to hoodwink you.
This is a very hot subject that is never discussed on this forum.
Developers are forced to use the License and it's expected that people operate in an ethical manner... But they don't.. Greedy world we live in...Comment
