I'm not interested in whatever games you want to play with shifting the
burden of proof. In Jacobsen v. Katzer, the Artistic License was found
to establish valid conditions, such that ignoring them while engaging in
actions otherwise not permitted by copyright law was found to be
copyright violation. You either need to explain a) specifically why the
Artistic License created valid conditions but the GPL did not or b) why
I should believe your opinion over that of a federal court.
Posting a bunch of general information about conditions vs. covenants,
which is what you keep doing, is not especially interesting when there
is a ruling that appears to have addressed the issue at hand far more
directly.
