Why did this happen? Why add restrictive copyleft provisions? Also, technically, you have to get permission from EVERY contributor to change the license, unless you can show their contributions are no longer in the current state of the system. I don't this happened, so I'm not sure at this point that the TD system is properly licensed with any restrictions.

Because:

Oliver's original copyright allowed anything

You are free to use, redistribute, or even print and eat a copy of
this software so long as you include this copyright notice.
I guarantee there is at least one bug neither of us knew about.

Bernd didn't make any changes to the license.

You guys asked for it to be GPLed in the forum thread.
