It's a soft dependency, like most of the vendor specific dependencies - you

discussing it that didn't come to any firm conclusions.

I have take a look to some other soft dependencies (I perhaps miss some):

pywbem: LGPLv2+
vmemclient: APACHE 2.0
hpe3parclient: APACHE 2.0
purestorage: BSD 2-Clause
rbd/rados:  LGPL 2.1

Their are all at least OSI Approved licenses

Anyway, I'm just sad to see that now two Opensource softwares (Cinder and
DRBD) need a non 'OSI Approved license' library to talk together.
