I intend to keep front end under a single license. If somebody 
later decide to use code generation from SDC, they will be able 
to do that, but that will be another project. As for the rest, I 
doubt there would be much to reuse anyway because of different 
design approaches. Thus I don't think that benefit is worth 
introducing code under a different license.

(I also asked whether it is possible to switch SDC license to 
Boost some time ago, but didn't get any response.)
