Dear,

The download of the BeehiveZ project (https://code.google.com/p/beehivez/) 
violates several licenses.

First, as mentioned on the BeehiveZ website: "Some source code of ProM 5.2, 
YAWL 2.1 are modified and imported into BeehiveZ". As ProM 5.2 is distributed 
under the CPL license and YAWL 2.1 under the L-GPL license, the authors should 
also distribute the modified source codes. However, they fail to do so, as the 
download only contains binaires (no sources). As a result, they violate both 
licenses.

Second, the CPL and L-GPL licenses are in conflict. As a result, a single 
distribution cannot contain both CPL-licensed code and L-GPL licensed code. 
Given that the authors distribute BeehiveZ under the GPL license, the CPL 
license is being violated.

Kind regards,

Eric Verbeek.
