Are you aware that there is a .deb release
(http://downloads.scalix.com/.community/11.0.3/scalix-11.0.3-GA-debian-intel.tgz),
with at least basic documentation
(http://www.scalix.com/wiki/index.php?title=Manual_Installation)?  This
may be useless, so I'm just asking.

Also, SPL (Scalix Public License) is *not* the Mozilla Public License.
The additions they make (Exhibit B) mean it is proprietary.  MPL+Exhibit
B is /not/ approved by the Open Source Initiative as an open source
license, and the Free Software Foundation would not consider it free.
