The basic idea of the Artistic License is that we retain a certain 
level of control of where to go with the "official" Scribia, while 
allowing others to freely use our code to provide and distribute 
Scribia-based apps. There are some other details that go with that.

Yes. Could you post his license here? After looking over it, we 
should email him asking if it is ok to redistribute his source with 
(and compile it into) an open source projct uner the Artistic License.
