I don't know who "RFS" is but any license you grant for your own 
code applies only to those to whom you grant the license.  

If you write some code, and it's yours, you can license it any 
way you want.  If you make it available for download under GPL, 
this does not prevent you from granting any other license to 
anyone, as you choose.  There is no requirement that you assign 
the copyright.
