Maybe I'm missing something but isn't Xtreams a stream *framework*? 
Generator is a single class with a total of 13 methods. Not exactly what 
I'd consider as reinventing a lot of stuff (in particular given that the 
implementation is both fun, educational, and mind-twisting). As for 
licensing: Wake me up when it actually happened and there is code to 
download. You of all people should know how long license changes can 
take :-)
