[quote=advogada Heather Meeker on db4objects and the Dual Licensing Model]
You may hear people argue about whether the GPL is a contract or not. The important thing to understand is that whether it is or not, if you accept code under GPL terms you must abide by the GPL. If you breach the GPL, your rights under GPL license terminate, and you have no right to use the code at all. If this happens, you will be infringing the licensor?s copyright, and copyright infringement puts you at risk of civil damages or even criminal culpability with the possibility of heavy fines.[/quote]
