This has gone unanswered for a while, I wanted to voice my opinion on
the matter.

The decision comes ultimately to the FTP-Masters, that decide to
accept or not a package with a certain license.  Even though the BOLA
license might be discouraged for new developments, it has already been
accepted for a couple of packages in Debian (darcsweb and libfiu) and
so I don't think it's useful to discuss if it should be accepted or
not, since it's already being accepted.

I'm working with Nicolas with the intention of sponsoring his package.
