Quote: " The license fee for educational purposes is symbolically EUR 1,- "

This implies there is also a (higher?) non-educational fee, and also 
means IMHO that this system can NOT be considered OPEN in the usual 
definition and is therefore not something OSGEO shoudl be involved 
with... 

Yours,
