It was a clause in the funding. The foundation accepted because they IMHO rightfully thought it was a good deal.

I'm not even sure if mods weren't released later. I can vaguely remember some of it flowing back.

Anyway, the point is not to debate netscape's policies, but the value as an example where GPL-extortion would have yielded anything is ludicrous.
