Thanx,
I know those incompatibilities and problems of licenses pretty well.
It (almost) KILLED a GPL MIS (medical information system) I co-developed
last year and has cost its community dozens (or even hundreds) of members
who lost interest in using it when the original vendor/developer (who released
it under GPL) the (most "Kafkaesce"!!!) "Main Association of Austrian Security 
Institutions"
and our MIS foundation (and SourceForge project) were fighting over the license and 
a insurance certificate required to run the program with billing systems...

So I am pretty cool and just looking forward, if the developer of the tag Guy Davis
can be contacted and asked for permission some time (http://www.guydavis.ca/, if you
would like to do so, too)
P.s.: As of his website he just came back from Australia these days. So maybe his
inbox is pretty FULL and he still (might) suffer from jet lag ?;)
So I'll also try to contact him about the issue some day this week or probably just
AFTER I have finished my actual PROJECT (which is more pressing than standardizing
some GPL code into WW or the other way round...;)

However, when the time has come (and is left) for that process, I would be very happy
to contribute some of our OS code (based on WW and other technologies from your project
and similar ones or just individual tags) back into the community and (if the client 
allows
so) also provide a success story you may NEVER have seen before...
(all I can say so far before consulting our customer is that the project is 
represented and
advertised by supermodel NAOMI CAMPBELL !!!:)

Werner

Well, GPL is not compatible with the license WebWork is released under (Apache style), 
so it's not possible to just drop it in unless the author is willing to also release 
it under a different license.
