#1
subscribe, looking at the code it actually looks fairly straightforward to add
#2
Subscribing. The editor looks awesome, to me it can be competing with TinyMCE and CKEditor.
#3
Interesting development
#4
Is the Apache License 2.0 compatible with GPL 2?
#5
No, the Apache License 2.0 is not compatible with GPL 2 although it is compatible with GPL Version 3.
However, it may not be best practice to duplicate the code of another project in the drupal.org repository in any case, and the WYSIWYG module has already adopted the excellent convention of putting third-party editors in the sites/all/libraries directory so that you don't lose them when upgrading. This is how TinyMCE and (F)CKEditor and all the rest are handled.
