Interesting concept, am curious how this withstands community review and analysis.
Bit puzzled though, by the statement made immediately after stating that it is GPL2: For commercial, legitimate applications, please contact the author for the appropriate licensing arrangements.
Since the GPL2 doesn't permit restricting what others do with GPLd software, I don't think this statement is doing what the author hopes; they might want to consult a lawyer.
(IANAL, etc., but there is nothing in there to prevent me, e.g., from building a business out of this, charging gazillions, and keeping it all for myself, provided I make the source available to my customers.)
