4PSA develop and sell a software suite called VoipNow Professional
(version 2.5) which, amongst other things, includes it's own packaged copy
of Kamailio. This version is derived from Kamailio version 1.5.4.
The software installs a binary release from a 4PSA repository. The RPM
information contains the following:
# rpm -qi voipnow-kamailio-1.5.4-130312.41.rhel5

Summary : Kamailio, a very fast and flexible SIP Proxy
I've made a direct request to 4PSA for the source code for this package,
only to be told they don't release their sources. The request, and
subsequent response, can be found at
http://my.4psa.com/4psa/topics/where_can_i_find_the_source_code_for_the_voi
pnow_2_5_x_modified_version_of_kamailio.
For those interested, the following packages are included with VoipNow
which are derived from GPL software. There is no source available for any
of these from the vendor.
# rpm -qa |grep voipnow
voipnow-spandsp-0.0.6-100708.10.rhel5
voipnow-asterisk-1.6.1.20-130312.07.rhel5

My requests are falling on deaf ears. Does anybody know how to make them
take this matter seriously?
Cheers,
