So you abandoned the dual licensing scheme. Please confirm.

Moreover which CeCILL are you talking about here? Cecill-A ? please 
clarify.

Scipad must be among those. Please confirm.

Several contributors have sent a formal letter to the Scilab 
Consortium about the license change recently and we would like to get 
a formal answer from the Consortium (and not from Sylvestre Ledru). 
This can also be brought to the public place if the Consortium likes 
it better.
