All Polypaudio sources are licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License. (see file LGPL for details) However, the server side links to the GPL-only library 'libsamplerate' which downgrades the license of the server part to GPL (see file GPL for details), exercising section 3 of the LGPL. Hence you should treat the client library ('libpolyp') of Polypaudio as being LGPL licensed and the server part ('libpolypcore') as being GPL licensed. -- Lennart Poettering, April 20th, 2006.
