    Certainly not, what makes you think so ? Read very carefully the GPL license twenty times, it's much more permissive than one might think and write.
    0 + 1 = 1 != 2 <> 3 != 4 ...
    Until the camel can pass though the eye of the needle.

    Why would using another GPL-licensed project make you want to change the licensing of your project?
