I thought that the intent was to make sure that modified software can't be mistaken for original one, hence "separate form". But, reading here https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/license-list.html "Q Public License (QPL), Version 1.0 (#QPL) This is a non-copyleft free software license which is incompatible with the GNU GPL. It also causes major practical inconvenience, because modified sources can only be distributed as patches." This seems like a much stronger reading. Maybe INRIA is willing to amend the license to explicitly allow any form of redistribution, not only patches.
