Please note that you cannot add restrictions to the GPL, you can only include additional permissions. Or, at least, you can try, but those who receive the work are entitled to simply ignore those restrictions. >From GPLv2 section 7: " All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term. " Adding permissions to the GPL does not render the resulting work GPL incompatible as far as I know.
