We have now contacted everyone who contributed code to this XBMC library for
RTMP, and the the license of the source code files has now been changed from
GPL to LGPL for your convenience.

# svn checkout
https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/linuxport/XBMC/xbmc/lib/libRTMP/

On a side note the original author said that he would be honored if someone
rewrote the code to C and made it fit into FFmpeg however you like under the
LGPL license.
