Last week I got the opportunity to discuss face-to-face with Ulrich
and we brought the licence issue to the table. Eventually, we agreed
to change the KanjiVG licence from Attribution-Non Commercial-Share
Alike to Attribution-Share Alike. This means usage of KanjiVG in
commercial work is now allowed, provided this work is redistributed
under a free licence. By this move, there should not be any more
problem to include KanjiVG into Linux distributions such as Debian or
to link it to GPL projects.

I also remind that people wanting to use KanjiVG in a commercial
project but for whom the Creative Commons is not acceptable can
negociate a special licence agreement with Ulrich, who owns the
copyright on the data.

I hope this change will make it possible for more people to use
KanjiVG and help improving it!
