        It is incompatible with the GNU GPL. It's ok to use it on the
        GNU machines (same situation as Apache). It's not ok to host
        projects under this licence because we want to help develop
        software that can be mixed together.

        I hope this is clearer, sorry about the confusion.

        Cheers,
