I am merely a lowly e17 user (and former packager), but in the hope that more voices might stop this madness, I'd like to add my support for Nathan here. This is a community-fracturing decision, and it's being pushed through with a complete lack of consensus. Multiple licenses under e17 is also going to make packaging it for distribution harder - you can't create a metapackage which will pull in all libs under one licence. It's not hard to work around, but it makes things harder with no gain.
