Yes except now the official G729 license body is saying the remaining patents can be used royalty free. Granted how legally enforceable items are may be different but this does not seem to leave any obvious loop holes. I have no problem (and own several) G729 licenses for FS. In addition if FS wants to continue collecting money for the work on this module. There was also the setup and upfront commit by the FS team to make proper licensing happen worth recouping. However, hopefully there isn't more money going to a body saying they no longer want money for licensing. It is good news (per the other thread) that there is a work around for the license server and hardware binding issues of the past, as it caused a big problem with docker previously trying to make that work. ~mitch On Tue, Mar 21, 2017 at 12:02 PM, David Villasmil < david.villasmil.work@gmail.com> wrote:

Hello guys,
I notice that the patent of G.729 is expired (since January 1, 2017) as noticed at http://www.sipro.com/G729.html .
So it is possible now to use G729 at FreeSwitch without license ?
