I was checking out PDF generation libraries (wild man, I know) and I
happened to come across the iText licensing. I was surprised to see
that while iText is free for non-commercial projects it you bundle it
with other software to redistribute I'd guess (I'm no lawyer) that
you're supposed to have an enterprise license.

I know that OpenBD uses iText under the hood. Is my understanding of
the iText licensing incorrect? Does the enterprise licensing for
redistribution on iText not apply when used by another FOSS project
like openBD? And (perhaps much more complicated) if you're
redistributing a CFML project with an openbd/jetty server bundled, am
I running afoul of the iText licensing by OpenBD proxy, if I'm not
using iText?
