Its YOUR project, YOU should set the license, and Akai can help, or not 
help.

Getting collaborators is going to be 10,000% easier if its GPL from the 
gitgo.

And I still haven't found that rocker to sit in. Amanda and emc2 are taking 
too much of my time.  I build the daily snapshot of amanda and install it 
for the upcoming nights backup run, and screech like a canary if it 
upchucks, which it did last night.  And emc2 seems to have lost its path 
through the parport & doesn't run the motors with the most recent build.  
And somewhere, I have to find the time to update 2 machines to FC5 or 
kubuntu-6.06 here, this one from a considerably hacked up FC2, and my 
firewall box from a heavily updated RH7.3, whose support officially ends 
Dec 31.

I'll find that rocker someday & then you'll likely not have to put up with 
me anymore.  Till, then, we'll just keep on trying to 'git-r-done'. :)
