Well -- if you, as JC seemed to imply -- are working for a company

them the difference between Gnat GPL and Gnat Pro. You'd like to
avoid the "GPL stink", someone put it here

I really don't see this as a problem; I work for a large aerospace
company, we are so far as I know quite happy with the service we get
from our vendors and the licence terms are OK too. I hope we aren't so
blinkered as to go off on a rant against anything with G, P and L in
its licence.

OK, every so often we contemplate programming our systems in VB or
Java, wiser heads prevail, but C++ is a real challenge; and not
because it's GPL-free, but because it's easier to get people with it
on their CVs.
