The concept of "link" is not as clear as it could be, I agree.

I've never thought it as Martin Langhoff describes it below, but his description sounds plausible to me.

Even if we ignore that angle for a moment, my perspective has always been that it's simply not possible to develop code "100% from scratch" in the real world. Developers always copy existing code, and thus the new code needs to follow the same license.

As others have said, I think the best way to work with non-GPL code is to write a GPL module that communicates with a separate standalone system (non-GPL).

From conversation it turned out this was because some duplicate posts in multiple forums had been deleted by a facilitator.

We do mention this here: http://moodle.org/mod/resource/view.php?id=1361 but we could probably stand to make such points of netiquette a little clearer on this site. Footer link, say.
