Where is the license explicited? There is no README/LICENSE or analogous file and no head license in every .tex file. Ooops, not: in [http://foundry.supelec.fr/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/context-reference/en/contextref.tex?root=contextman&view=markup] I see the license. Sorry But should it put in every .tex file or in a LICENSE file? I'm not lawyer.
