indeed.  It is 100% GPL.  To install requires PHP3, apache-php3-mod,
php-lib, postgresql, some tweaking to get appropriate authentication,
creation of the SQL database (in postgresql), and a single program in php3.
So I will assemble a package with instructions and semi-automatic install
for all that.

Postgres has the BSD license, not GPL, <g>.
