Of course a proprietary implementation doesnt mean its a bad thing. In
fact I am afraid that I purchase a commercial solution which uses a
opensource/GNU library. I would not like it if a company makes profit
out of the hard work of the volunteers here. Somewhere in your list
archive I read for example that GFI purchased a solution which used
libspf. Such a solution would then no solution for me.

It should be either fully commercial OR fully opensource. Thats why I
would like to see small notes on your website which solution uses
which library.

Due to the very nature of closed-source commercial software it's difficult 
to tell what library it uses if it is linked statically.

If anyone has reliable information about commercial products using open SPF 
libraries, please submit it here.  We can then add it to the website (for 
better or worse).
