Originally it was, but too many people are afraid of GPL. They don't understand that unless they release applications developed with GPL software they can keep their source code to themselves. Since Dabo is used in many businesses, and businesses are especially worried about the implication of GPL on their internal software operations, we changed it to the much less restrictive MIT license.
