Go and drop am email to Nimmer et. al. asking whether a copyright
license is a contract or not. Let us know about his response.
No, I don't think I will.
People quote all sorts of stuff in lawsuits. In the case of this
brief, it claims that a license is sufficiently like a contract
that you can make similar claims for infringement.
Here's an idea - why don't you go ahead and willfully defy the
GPL on some piece of code, get yourself sued, and see how it all
works out.
