Re: gEDA-user: licensing (GPL or otherwise) for hardware?

Yeah, that's the tricky question.  The board *as made* may be
copyright-protected, but the *circuit* on the board may not be.  So,
if you take Ronja's schematics and do your own layout, the resulting
board may not be illegal, but copying Ronja's board may be.

Assuming Ronja's license prohibits it ;-)
