The license doesn't automatically get voided just because one party decides so; it gets voided in instances of breach. That's why we have licenses - if it were just a case of "do whatever Jelsoft says" then why have a license at all? Why bother writing one and getting people to agree to it? That's the whole point of licenses: so that both parties are clear as to their obligations.
I'm not using the hack, so it's almost immaterial to me other than an intellectual excercise. However, if I were using it, and Jelsoft were to to tell me that doing so was a "breach" of the license, I would challenge that - because it's not. I certainly wouldn't stop using it.
Jelsoft would then need to test their license in court - and I'm positive that they would not succeed in such a test.
That all said, I think I'm going to bow out of this conversation as it doesn't affect me. I'm really just sticking my nose into other peoples' business.
