Yes, and it seems like I need to be more careful with my words here. And 
I need to learn something about this too. Exactly what does the second 
term mean? I guess it would have been ok if I had wrote "it is licensed 
GPL"?

Inkscape is very short about the license, they just say "Copyright 
1999-2004 by Authors. Inkscape is free software; you can redistribute it 
and/or modify it under the terms of the GPL":
