I am starting to agree with Thomas and others --- why mention the GPL at
all.  How about this.  (Again to appear at the bottom of FAQ item 1.2):

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The above is the BSD license, the classic open-source license. It has no
restrictions on how the source code may be used.  We like it and have no
intention of changing it.
