NEVER ask for legal advice on a mailing list. Ask an attorney or maybe a 
manufacturer/developer. You can read about the GPL at:

http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl.html
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html 

These are essentially the same. The first is the Free Software Foundation, an 
organization which often defend the GPL, and the second is the home for the 
GPL. It's not very hard to read and understand the license.
