They can't. They have already stated that Netscape Professional Edition
won't be free, and since that is based on all the earlyer versions
(including the non-professional version), they couldn't GPL any other
versions.

Note: anyone who is interested in this should look at www.openscape.org:
there should be a mailinglist there for NS stuff like this.
