Patrick,

Those guys make money with clamav, it is unfair for clamav development team and community members. I am wondering who is in charge of this issue in clamav team.

It has always been the intention of ClamAV to offer a free and open source solution, and that is what is happening, even with
bitmedic.

My suggestion would be to review the licensing of client libraries, maybe it would make more sense to license these parts under
the LGPL.
