Metrowerks License for linux

Metrowerks have released a JIT for LinuxPPC, and a source code license allowing people to modify it, and post patches or binaries -- but not the full source. Note that only people from the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia, and the European Union (only those countries in it today) will be granted this license. Also the license only lasts a year. Ed Blackdown is apparently happy over this, but I find the restrictions over length and countries very distasteful. kaffe is an OpenSource alternative.
