I don't quite get it....

Are you saying, that Mahara isn't GPL or that it can be comercially used
(the sentence pasted from licence statement: If your application can't meet
the GPL license or is a commercial one)?

Regards,
Gregor

P.S. How about contacting the author(s)? Do you think it would be a good
idea?
