Now I remember what I found peculiar about the license. It is the line that says "Distributable under GPL" which confuses me. GPL, as in "Gnu General Public License", is a license which requires the source code to be distributed (or made available) - but there is no source code (at least not any source code to the firmware) included. Most distributions - including Ubuntu - accept binary-only firmware, so I suggest this line should be removed from the license. (With the usual "I'm not a lawyer" disclaimer.)
