I didn't grant a permissive license. I do grant a waiver of my own rights to my customers, but those customers have hired me to help them cure their infringement by providing the correct source code.

No problem, Henrik.

Helping these folks solve their compliance problem is not too difficult. Getting them to allow me to help often is.
