Not on Aldor, no.  My PRIMARY concern is what impact Aldor will have on
the Axiom project, and that CAN be delt with on this list - it must be.

Apparently, that opinion is not shared by other members of the list. 
If I am alone in that opinion, it doesn't matter much.  If I am not, it
could be a real problem for Axiom.

That's fine, but it is still incompatible and the intent is that it be
incompatible (at least with the GPL).  The issue at hand remains - what
course does the Axiom Project take?
