Hello Jarrett, Camelot as a whole project is GPL.
However the orm module as it is now in gitorious (not yet released), should not be GPL. I originally started with writing some GPL code to mimic Elixir behavior, and later on copied parts of the original BSD code of elixir into them. The code now more looks like the original Elixir code with some additions of mine. I have no issues with releasing those additions as BSD of course. So if you want to go ahead with this, simply let me know, and we'll sort it out. Erik PS : may I suggest bitbucket for cooperation ? I've used it in some recent projects and am happy with it. Especially the posibility to work with subrepos is handy for integration purposes.
