Actually, Peter Gutmann is a big supporter of GPL'ed projects. :) If
you're familiar with the GNUPG project, he (at one time) offered to
dual-license the PRNG from cryptlib to GNUPG. You might drop him a line
an inquire as to the possiblity of getting GPL rights for the Jabber
project -- the worst that can happen is that he says no. :)
