That's extremly odd. Consider the following case: I am writing a ZPLed Zope 
product but include some migration shell scripts that call some common 
GPLed unix programs for a particular task...I wouldn't be allowed to 
checkin this
software on svn.zope.org? The advice to move the code out of the repository 
is not really legitimate. Neither rules as given through the contributor 
agreement nor unspoken rules were violated. Once again: using GPLed 
software does not make your own ZPLed software automatically GPLed.
