The question of licenses came up recently in the thread "constrained
optimization", and the answers
Travis Oliphant:
Libraries in SciPy need an unrestrictive open source license
(something like the Python license itself or the BSD license)
Eric Jones:
free for academic/commercial, no restrictions that additions must be
contributed back to package
Here is a link to the license itself:

This is not a direct answer to your question, but may give you enough
information to answer it.
