The discussion with caesium brought this up, but I'd like to ask just to be totally explicit. As far as the developers are concerned, since SM is GPL'd, the fact that plugins use the SM API means that plugins are derivative works and so must be licensed under the GPL or are infringing upon the SM copyright? (This is assuming it's impossible to write code that would be considered a "SM plugin" without using something from the API SM provides.)
