Hello, WengoPhone is developed in Europe, so we don't have any software patents here. If the user lives in a country which has software patents like the USA, the user needs a license to use WengoPhone. This is a problem we should discuss. http://www.penguin.cz/~utx/amr states: AMR codecs incorporate several patents, held by Ericsson, Universite de Sherbrooke (VoiceAge) and Nokia. VoiceAge claims to provide patent portfolio for AMR codecs. Depending on law in your country, manufacturers and developers may need to get a license. Because it is a shared library, you may need a special contract for each one application, which links against this library, directly or indirectly. -- andreas -- http://www.cynapses.org/ - cybernetic synapses
