So true, the license You use can't be removed. But when You get the

dual-licensed software, when You start modifying it You arrange the licensing

deal on terms of either first or second or both licenses. You choose the

license You gain You rights from and after You accepted it, You can do

whatever You want copyright until the law and the license You accepted

prohibit. The license You didn't accept doesn't restrict You any way until

otherwise stated by the developper.
