Am I correct that you are advocating another licensing change in order 
to be able to distribute your proprietary binary?

Since this sub-thread started about existing GUIs, I was under the 
impression that we are talking about options available to the project.

I understand now that you are talking about "a GUI" that can be used 
with Box Backup, not necessarily one that is include in the project.

Best regards, Achim
