ftghyujkjmhnbg··on UK seals documents about suicide of weapons inspector David Kelly for 70 years
There wasn't any doubt about the suicide verdict. The issue was that the scope of the inquiry was limited to investigating a very specific claim - about what David Kelly said about the report. It was not allowed to investigate the real question about the truth of the report and "who sexed it up"

In American terms it's like holding an investigation into JFK's death but only considering the cause of death and finding that it was a bullet that killed him.

You could argue then that they are in breach of the GPL on stuff they do use themselves.

You can hardly take GPL source, modify it and refuse to distribute it to certain groups - wether this is your choice or a rule imposed by your country

If you read the article it isn't the suicide verdict that is sealed it is other evidence given tot he inquiry but not published. So perhaps the name of the CIA/Mi5/RAC agents that reported there were weapons, the names of current Iraqi politicians that were working for CIA/MI5/RAC.

70 years is nothing - there are still cabinet meetings from the Napoleonic wars that are sealed.
