License issues

["Tony anon" <tonys-mailbox at hotmail dot com>]

I'm a little concerned about the licensing situation with Kawa.

I note that Kawa as a whole is covered under the X11/MIT license, which I 
believe is fine for commercial/closed source use.

However, certain elements such as gnu.bytecode still appear to be covered 
under the GPL.

The page covering the license includes the statement: "Note that not all of 
the file files have been updated yet to reflect the new license."  Is it the 
case that all of the code will converted over to X11/MIT, or will some 
elements remain under the GPL?

If some elements do remain under the GPL, isn't Kawa a derivative work of 
these libraries and thus still covered under the GPL?

Also, given that it is necessary to ship Kawa with the software that is 
written in it, is it the case that such applications would also be treated 
as a derivative work and thus also covered under a GPL license?

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Tony
