For Cendio copyright, you are currently in position of accepting the license change
for "whatever
could have been left in our code base". We wouldn't ask you to change the
license on rdesktop, since
we believe none of your copyright is left in our code base. You'd basically be
granting us rights on
the parts of code which are unproven to exist as of yet, to relieve us from the
uncertainty that
you're talking about. I respect your position regarding the GPL, but in this
case willingly wanting to
leave uncertainty on us is not necessarily considered a "friendly" approach.
We're doing our best to
respect your copyright and your choice of not accepting the license change, I
would expect a minimum
effort and good will from your side in return. We believe none of your IP is
left in our code base,
this is only an extra measure to remove this uncertainty. Are you willing to
make that move for the
good of both projects?
We believe that FreeRDP is based on our copyrighted code and that the
value of our work is significant. We are not prepared to give away this
work under a non-copyleft license at this time. We are sorry if this
causes problems for you. I also want to point out that this is not my
decision alone.
Regards,
