If code is released under copyright. be it BSD, or GPL, and someone
other than the author(s) changes the license, can the person(s)
who(m) made the changes seriously expect that somebody else cannot
take that code under the terms of the original license, or some
other license _they_ prefer and do the same?

If I sound confused, it's probably because I am. :-\
