It also includes a great deal of code from fping, which is not GPL. 
Further, the Stanford license from fping seems to be largely omitted.

I have not come to a conclusion on how I feel about adding non0GPL 
software to the plugins - it is not consistent with the plugins 
themselves, so we'd need to distribute them with different licenses 
applying to differnt parts of a release.

Anyone else care to comment?
