However, I don't think a GPL+attribution license exists. I'm sure many authors
of software licensed under the GPL wouldn't mind an optional attribution
clause and wouldn't mind using such a license for their projects. There are
probably cases where the GPL is used simply because it is the most popular
license for free software.
