So I had a quick look at the CC website, and through a couple of  
questions, ended up with the following license: http:// 
creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/. Basically it allows BioCocoa  
to be used in bot non- and commercial apps, and allows people to  
modify the code, as long as they use the same license, and inform  
other users of their modifications. I couldn't find anything about  
using parts of the framework.

cheers,

- Koen.
