Your explaination is too clear, thanks. I think it is enought for List users.
However, two things could make things more clear for
Avein potential users:
-Avein Project hasn't been categorized at Sourceforge Trove Software Map, where
you did specify the licensing method
-Avein SF home page (http://avein.sourceforge.net/) points to nowhere. SF
visitors can get more info about Avein if this url
points to Terretris Avein info page.

All right.

An ArcGis version of Gix is under development. I think, we can mixup our
resources to make a good product. Let'me know on private email more details
about how we can do that.
