True.
Every code in LinuxBIOS is under GPL.
No all of it. Some parts are taken from other projects and may be under a GPL-compatible license, e.g. the BSD license.
It's important to make it very clear what the exact licence of each file is and who is the copyright owner.
Could you please add the standard GPL license header to your files in svn?
Something like this, for example:
/* * Copyright (C) 2006 ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

That would be great!
Cheers, Uwe.
