What on earth are you refering to?

This whole argument is moot because there IS a free g.729 implementation. Actually it is a zero cost license to the source code. Exactly what was asked for.

1st. - I'm from Poland, we don't have (yet, and hopefully forever)software

private use (dialing into inet->PSTN gateway), and I don't want(now) to buy
codec, as I don't know if I will be using this service in future(now I just
want to test it). Any solutions? Maybe even free-15day-trial ofg.729.1
codec?There *are* no software patents on G.729. However, there are a lot of
signal processing patents, and they are applicable everywhere. A lot
of people seem to have the strange idea that implementing a patented techique on a CPU, instead of some other hardware, suddenly makes it
not a patent issue in many countries. WRONG! As long as the original
patent was not so narrow that is was only claimed to apply to a very
specific realisation of the technique, a software implementation is just as patent encumbered as any other.
