"...for commercial purposes"
It is not trivial to separate commercial and non-commercial purposes. Creative commons licenses still don't have a clear criteria. So as it goes with copyright, this just has a chilling effect on the education of some compsci fundamentals. I just dont get why MS would do that, is it a competitive advantage?

There's also a tremendous Haskell binding, SBV ( http://hackage.haskell.org/package/sbv ) though it's specialized to bitvector theory.
