While it is possible that in this case an exception might apply, the next occasion where it won't is not far away if you intend to contribute to Emacs. So better start getting the legal hassle over with as soon as possible if your work situation does not prohibit it. It is a nuisance, but not to be avoided. Sure. I don't think my work would be a problem, but it may take a few days to find out, since I'm far away from our HQ and it certainly makes sense to ask. Thanks for the clarification :)
