unfortunately I share the same doubt a Kai-Uwe. After reading throught
CTL I am less than enthousiastic. I also have yet to find an exemple of
the interest of CTL, do you have any CTL "script" to show us ?

Further more, I also think that the CTL libraries is incompatible with the current draft of GPLv3 (I should ask FSF for confirmation) and maybe even GPLv2: 

 Nothing in this license shall be deemed to grant any rights to
 trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other
 intellectual property of A.M.P.A.S. or any contributors, except
 as expressly stated herein, and neither the name of A.M.P.A.S.

The latest draft of GPlv3 explicitely states otherwise. Even if it's not
final, I doubt the FSF will change much to the pattent clause :/ Beside
the fact that they have added this to the BSD licence gives me concern
that CTL might be encumbered by pattents.i

Ah oh and googling a bit show that I am not the only one to think that
the licence is GPL-incompatible :

I guess no need to ask FSF :/
