Just FYI (since this seems to have been resolved), I know that most of the Adium team are sympathetic to BSD licensing as it makes their professional lives less complicated. Many also work on Growl ( http://growl.info ) which is BSD-licensed. The main reason for the GPL in Adium is the dependency (for now) on libpurple, which infects their whole codebase. So, in the (doubbtful) event that some of Adium's code might prove useful to NumPy/SciPy, it probably *is* worth asking the developers about relicensing bits and pieces.
