If you own the copyright on something, you can license it how you like - the fact that older versions have been licensed under GPL is irrelevant. If the program is derived from GPL'd code whose copyright is owned by someone else, who's unwilling to allow re-licensing, then what you say is correct, but I think Linux Sampler was written from scratch. There's nothing to stop someone taking the last GPL'd version of Linux Sampler and forking a GPL version from there, of course, except that the mysterious "more going on" alluded to by Paul Davis might also start to happen to the forkers..? - Pete.
