Hi,

In that reddit discussion of my blog post I mentioned that SciLab
(http://www.scilab.org/) is
released under a custom GPL-incompatible license when somebody asked
about SciLab.
Also I mentioned that SciLab violates the GPL by linking in readline.

Very interestingly, somebody posted that the next major release of
SciLab will be
GPL-compatible.  See
  http://www.scilab.org/download/index_download.php?page=CHANGES_5.0-beta-1

This means there is potential for collaboration between the Sage and
SciLab projects.
I.e., we could potentially share code with them, etc.
