I've considered it, but Wordpress' licensing made it incompatible with 
my business goals.

Wordpress is GPL, and like Drupal and Joomla they're explicitly clear 
that anything that runs in the same PHP process as their framework is 
considered "derivative work" under the GPL.  Accordingly, all plugins 
and even themes can only be released under GPL.

If you're interested in sharing source, LC's Community Edition allows 
you to deploy under the same GPL license.

Since I never looked beyond the licensing, I'm not sure if the WP 
framework supports integration with any languages other than PHP.

Running non-WP portions of a domain alongside WP should be relatively 
easy if the WP part is kept within a specific folder.  It may even be 
possible in other configurations if you're up for a deep dive into WP's 
.htaccess, but last time I look at it I lost interest pretty quickly.
