You are implementing part of ReactOS so you can't just silently 
relicense your code in one commit to a license which is incompatible 
with ReactOS aims and goals.

At the very least, I would appreciate a discussion with our team 
regarding this before doing such commits.

Please revert. The runtime linking exception was added for a reason, not 
for amusement or RMS trolling. RMS is unhappy either way (not that I 
care about his opinion :).
