Do not twist Sven's words.
All he said was, in effect, 'if the license bothers you, it's not wise
for you to contribute to this project.' It's not a matter of GIMP
project policy or requirements, simply a matter of having the personal
judgment and wisdom to contribute either wholeheartedly or not at all.
