@alilly ok - yeah, as a longtime Drupal developer (which, like WordPress is GPL'd) the idea is that plugins and modules which have no useful function without the platform core (Drupal or WordPress core respectively), they are derivative works and must adhere to the GPL.

@alilly
I suspect that most of the WordPress commercial ecosystem is actually contravening (quite egregiously, both in spirit and letter) the GPL. It seems like something that the broader community should be nipping in the bud sooner than later. Otherwise it sets a very dangerous precedent of flagrant non-compliance without consequence - and WP is the single biggest platform on the web, by a huge margin. It's up there with Linux as Copyleft's flagship.
