i dont have the details :-(. But check out the groklaw archives. afair there was a discussion on this issue. Alternately run it through fsf legal.
in fact, there is no case law on this subject as no one has revoked gpl and gone to court attempting to prevent further use of the code. But the fact that it can be done is what scares the sh*t out of a lot of people. So how to prevent this? Best way is to make sure lots of people contribute code to the project (as i mentioned in another post on this thread)
