Yes this is possible. We really hope to find some time later this year to put out BlackBox release 1.6 final. But this release will contain only very minimal changes compared to 1.6-rc6. All other corrections and improvements will have to go in future releases driven by the community.

You are right, the current license is complicated. BlackBox 1.6 final will be licensed under the simpler BSD 2-Clause license (
http://choosealicense.com/licenses/bsd/).
