Is the Pro version of your software the same as the free version, but
with added functionality?
Because I just downloaded the free version and, while it has been
"rewritten", it is basically the same routines, the same logic, (and
even the same variable names in some cases) as the sourceforge project.
Which was "inspired", as yor programmer puts it, by the official perl
client.
So, if the pro uses the same code base, then I think you are into a bit
of a grey area. Someone with more knowledge of licensing can give their
thoughts on this.
