Not really the friendly remark.
OTOH, - I hope this is not too much of a taboo to say it - all commercial Kivio editions as well as KDEStudios are still GPLed software (merely because *was* GPLed is a wording that GPL denies).
So even if theKompany seems to feel very uncomfortable now with the GPL, they may consider importation/exportation to KOffice as a logical consequence of things past ?... I don't know.
