[hobbit] Just a suggestion : License change from GPL to BSD

[Larry Barber]

With the GPL you don't have to "give back" changes unless you transfer the
program to another company or individual. The GPL just requires that the
code be available wherever the binaries are. You are perfectly free, under
the GPL, to change anything you want for your own use, and not give anybody
else the changes.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
