If you want to build a car, don't use a GPL gas pedal !

This point is only there to avoid that the code did not return to the 
communauty. Also, fork is avoided. Give back the code is the price to pay to 
reused  GPL code. That's how this system want to work. There is no GPL user 
that could say "i had produice more code than i use".  So in fact, you're gas 
pedal example is void.

BSD is an other approch. They beleive that people are "smart" enought to give 
back improvement. I just see that GPL code is much more common and wide 
spread than BSD like code.
