The ampas license includes a jurisdiction clause, and that makes it 
incompatible with the GPL. We did investigate this when CTL was released, 
because we really wanted to use the library.

Anyway, James has been an annoyance and a nuisance for longer than I have been 
involved with KOffice -- I vividly remember my predecessor, Patrick Julien, 
venting off after one of James' wilder escapades. I've added him to my 
killfile and hopefully won't read any of his wibblings anymore.
