I don't suppose you could be persuaded to choose LGPL instead of GPL?
Because... if I try to add a new intrinsic, then won't that also have to be
covered under the GPL too? According to
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLModuleLicense it will have to
be... and that could cause 'complications' if S-Lang 2 is used to wrap
non-GPL code (because doing so wouldn't be allowed under the GPL licence,
but under LGPL it would be).

Great!

It certainly does... can't wait to see it.
