The status of all the OpenSER derivatives is pretty much the same; they
all need a thorough license check, and on such a massive codebase it's
not an easy thing to do.
There are a number of license incompatibilities in there, and a
significant number of them can't be fixed (original authors disappeared,
are uninterested or unwilling to fix the license for one reason or
another...).
Additionally, there are some nasty GPL/OpenSSL issues involving some of
the plugins and libraries they use.
That was the situation last I got involved in this, from the top of my
head.
Good luck,
JB.
