Hey, that was a good account!
Another small glitch I found is that the "GPL" cannot just be called the
"GPL" anymore, since there are now two versions of it.
One is the "GNU GPL", and the other is the "Affero GPL", which is a
(FSF-approved) modified version of the original GNU GPL (v2), whose
changes might make it into the GNU GPL 3. (More infos on the Affero GPL
can be found here: http://www.affero.org/oagpl.html .)
In any case, GPL expands to "General Public License", not "GNU Public
License", so you might like to refer to the "GNU General Public License"
instead.
Thanks,
Felix
