Very interesting indeed. Dear Pramode, do you meen that you shall
release the schemes of Phoenix under a free license? If so, you will be
the first in the world for such a hardware piece, as far as I know.
If the free license is only about the software linked to Phoenix, then
GPL is the good choice.

adding a header to each file is far from expensive (just 'for file in
list; do cat header.txt $file > $file.tmp; mv $file.tmp $file; done')
Please drop me an e-mail when this is done, I'd be proud of building a
debian and a rpm package for phoenix, and include it in our repository
for teachers immediately.
By the way, I shall distribute a bootable CDROM in three weeks in the
meeting "Educ@tice" in Paris,
http://www.educatice.com/scripts/publish/information.asp?code=1_OVR&language=en
this CDROM will be based on Freeduc-CD (http://www.ofset.org/freeduc-cd)
and offer about 40 applications useful for students in scientific areas.
As our scripts allow to add instantly applications pacckaged for Debian
in this CDROM, I'd like to add phoenix software in it, even if the
physical interface is shipped a little later: people buying this cdrom
will have feedback as soon as possible about the usage of Phoenix with
students in France.
Best regards, Georges.
