Drat.  It's incompatible, because the GPL specifies that you aren't allowed to
add additional restrictions (IIRC, anyway), and "non-commercial use only" is an
additional restriction.  The Alladin Free Public License is GPL-incompatible
because of a similar non-commercial requirement, so look that up if you want the
exact reasoning.

Hi,

Arghhh! :) I understand the issue! If only I could invent 40 more hours per week, I could make one icon theme!
But still I think that a replacement for CrystalSVG should be found!

Have a great day!
