[Freeswitch-users] Open source Java based inbound event socket library available

[paul.degt]

That's rather bold statement and indicates lack of knowledge on the 
subject . I would advise you to look at 
http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html on GPL information.
In fact proprietary applications can use/modify GPL software with no 
limitations or obligations towards authors. The only requirement is if 
such applications will be published/distributed it must be done under 
GPL license. If that's a problem  - just ask authors to release a 
commercial version for such purpose.
I think GPL is fair and easy to deal with.
