It was meant like this:
Say I have programmed something and that is distributed under a
GPL-compatible license. Now I want to add some routines that touch these
patents. According to RedHats statement I am not allowed to do this undr
the terms of their promise as my license is not the GPL but only
GPL-compatible. Am I right?
