My interpretation is that while the core is contributed and the core source 
files are licensed
under BSD; the Kamailio distribution overall, including the core, is licensed 
under GPL2
when we distribute tarballs and distribution packages.

This includes the sample configuration files and the documentation READMEs 
included
in the distribution.

Again, I’m no lawyer either :-)

Hello Wei,

I am not a lawyer, and for a definite answer to your particular case I'd 
suggest you consult one.

You are correct, Kamailio is licensed mainly under GPL2 or later. The core is 
licensed under the BSD license.

About your question: 

Kamailio interprets the routing script during run-time. This does not enforce 
a certain license on this particular Kamailio configuration script. You as an 
author can choose a license that you prefer.

You will find a more extensive explanation in the GPL FAQ, first paragraph:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#IfInterpreterIsGPL

If you e.g. sell a Kamailio script to a customer, the customer can of course 
access the script and look to it. It is available on the server in the end. 
But this does not alter your right to choose a license.

Best regards,

Henning

[SR-Users] Licensing clarification of Kamailio scripting code

[Wei Li Jiang]

Hi,

I am aware the Kamailio itself as well as the native C modules are licensed
under the GPL.
What is the licensing situation with the Kamailio routing scripts, both
native and via KEMI?

Regards,
Wei Li
