Did you check out the two references I included in my email?  Thats
about all I have.

You say "distinguish licenses from other contracts" - but apparently
it's not a contract to begin with.  I'm not saying that no licenses are
contracts, but I am saying that licenses don't have to be contracts
(based on what I have read).

Here are the two references I have used (as included in my previous
email):

"GPL: Contract or License"
http://www.rexursive.com/articles/gplcontractorlicence.html

"The GPL is a License, Not a Contract, Which is Why the Sky Isn't
Falling"

Cheers,

Will.
