I see a thread that starts off with one of the FreeRDP license developers announcing a relicense the code. http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=AANLkTinOeC2iVqNf0Kxq- nsm6sPdQbNdYoeWGBjVzfx1%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=freerdp-devel I'm not sure how that can be done though, since it appears to still contain code from rdesktop. Is the plan to rewrite the code with GPL headers before version 0.9? Does this definitely make it not-derivative? My read of the GPL is that you'd need approval from anyone with a non-trivial content that might still be included in freerdp.
