[cairo] License question

[Clemens Eisserer]

Hi Jens,

Yes, you may use cairo in commercial applications, but if you modify
cairo itself, you have to publish the modifications (and only the
modifications, nothing of your app).
Hope you will create a cross-platform app, so that Linux/OSX users can
use it too...

Greetings from Austria, Clemens
