But it is the only free solution (and DFSG-free on the server side) for that particular use case that I know of. The server could be distributed as part of Debian to save users from compiling it by hand and installing it out of the dpkg database. There are a few blog or forum posts explaining how to do the "make && make install" which means there is interest. Thanks a lot for the comments.
