Yes.  He and I are the people behind both of these.

You're not wrong.  The GPL is a bit more specific, of course, but that's 
the general idea, and we certainly intend to uphold it.

We have ourselves released hundreds of thousands of lines of Linux music 
software under the GPL during the last ten years, so even from a 
selfish perspective we have an interest in enforcing the very license 
that we choose to use for our own code.
