I just consider this situation not to be one of these.)


If I understand correctly, you wish to use code that other people have written and published under the GPL. These people made the free choice put the conditions of the GPL on the code. I don't see how it is anything other than improper to reuse the code in a public domain setting. I prefer to respect the choices of the code's writers.
