I think I remember that you said that you had a special agreement with 
NAG about that, ie you cannot change the license.

I guess sooner or later we will have GPL'ed code inside Axiom. So what 
you are saying is that we should not bother too much with GPL'ed code 
but rather use it and thus change the Axiom License to GPL.

Would be interesting to hear what other people think about Axiom under GPL.
