IANAL, but I would've thought, then, that you're just granting an unconditional licence in perpetuity...
Yes. And however unconditional you express it to be, if the licensee gives no consideration, it can be revoked, and if, for example, I owe a million to the tax man, write some software which is worth a million, but then 'give it away'
I take it, though, that selling it to the FSF for $1 would work?
Would David like to give us his opinion of the interpretation of the Gnu Public Licence under UK law? Ostensibly it purports to allow copying of the specified work by anyone, subject to a requirement that the same licence is attached to any (possibly modified) copies made.
