Dear SebastiƩn,

actually, your framework is GPL which means that all software which uses modeling has to be GPL. (Is yours also?) Although, we support open software (my coworker just wrote a GTK grid with python bindings, open for everyone), our actual policy is that all libs should be open, but some productivity tools may be comercial. The problem is to recover the investment to create basic technologies.

Beside the GPL, are there other ways to have a comercial tool (may be open source) that includes modeling? (I think either of a comercial licence for modeling, or a licence type LGPL or something else.)

With best regards,
Erny
