As far as I know we've no formalized license policy for StackForge
hosting, though I think there's an assumption that it needs to be
redistributable under an OSI/DFSG/FSF recognized license variant.
Certainly hosting a derivative work of software which is under a
more "copyleft" license brings those additional license terms with
it, and seems like a reasonably pragmatic choice to me (compared
with the alternative of reinventing the wheel entirely in a
clean-room effort to avoid the original license terms).
