Which is a quite restrictive license....

If GRML would do that work for every little nice thing that is not
free as used in the term "free software", it would be a lot of work to
track these permissions etc., so I guess it's smart to use only real
free stuff...
Additionally, it would make redistribution of grml by other people
problematic, legally, if only the main grml team gets this special
allowance...

(just my opinion as non-developer)
