It has a weak legal binding. I would'nt say that it's "unfree" software,
it's more like a open source software with a moral statement written as a
banner in capital letters. This could be included in the "readme", not in
the license.

Yves's intention is to distribute PiDiP as free software,
and its license is very easy to fix...
