further it cant be advertised that its an iax/iax2 softphone due to
http://www.digium.com/en/company/profile/trademarkpolicy.php which lists iax
as a censored word unless its from unmodified code from digium.

you gotta love people that both publsh and rfc draft and try to maintain
ownership of the *name* of a protocol.

From http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php :


      6. No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor

The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a
specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program
from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.


      3. Derived Works

The license must allow modifications and derived works, and must allow
them to be distributed under the same terms as the license of the
original software.

    /*Rationale:* The mere ability to read source isn't enough to
    support independent peer review and rapid evolutionary selection.
    For rapid evolution to happen, people need to be able to experiment
    with and redistribute modifications.
