Hi

I cooda sworn it was GPL. It is. Website ays so.
-----

i am aware of that. that doesnt necessarily make it free software. for
example the mp3 decoders like lame are by themselves under a free
software license but patents on them override their freeness. in case
of this wrapper its only useful for working with proprietary drivers.
such a piece of code is called "contrib" in debian. its free software
which depends on non free software to be usable. similar to java and
tomcat for example.
