 Hi Florian,

Would not it work if a warning and a license text would be put in the
header and in respective manual pages to declare and explain what are
the use conditions/restrictions? That would be a kind of offer the
public could accept and it would provide them legal grounds. Of
course, I will have little (if any) means to verify and control. But
this is more a honesty oriented approach and I guess I'll be fine with
that.
