We decided to go GPL, for better or worse. Our hope is that if PostGIS
and PostGIS related tools become popular we can build our business on

so it would not be a stretch). In the meantime, we are working on
PostGIS in the cracks between our paying projects.

archival purposes: I will move web-based access to that archive higher
up my priority list.
