Ah, thanks for the correction.

I went through a legal headache years ago releasing some software and our lawyers strongly urged against *GPL and pushed us to Apache because we would have had severely limited our opportunity for Fortune 500 companies. Apparently many prohibit anything with the letters GPL in the license, despite that the software was free and we were charging for services. It was a long headspinning debate and due to mounting legal fees we went with Apache.
