Again, Imendio is a company, it doesn't have personal disagreements.  
The opinions that various people have expressed here are their  
personal and not that of a company.

This thread is not the right place to discuss a possible relicense of  
Gossip code. If the Empathy developers really care to advance that  
discussion I suggest they invite for the discussion with the Gossip  
developers elsewhere. This is the same thing that was raised last time  
we had this discussion, since then there have been no such attempts  
that I am aware off.
