Thanks for the heads up.

Indeed if we plan to invest more time in Aloha as part of the IKS
effort, for instance integrating in fise to visualize and edit the
TextAnnotation instances added by the EnhancementEngines then Aloha
would need to be licensed under a very liberal BSD license as the rest
of the software developed as part of the IKS project.

A non-contaminating license (such as BSD or the Apache License) is
also a requirement for inclusion in Nuxeo and Apache projects such as
Clerezza).
