They can pretty much choose any license (or set of licenses) they want, so long as at least one of them is GPL compatible. GPL+QPL works, as does X11+QPL or what have you. If they have specific questions about the license once they've come to some sort of internal consensus, feel free to refer them back to -legal or continue coordinating between us. Thanks for working on making this package distributable.
