Alan DeKok posted this very promising report of the re-licensing work he had been doing in January: http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-devel/2009-January/012726.html
I've contacted a number of people. No one has objected.
If I understand Alan's post correctly, the license issue was unintentional in the first place. If that is correct, then it is too bad that it keeps a number of users from using the code (yes, there is nothing preventing them from building FreeRADIUS themselves, but most users won't do that)
An alternative would be to distribute freeradius + openssl binaries from freeradius.org. Or, to re-arrange the code so that any OpenSSL dependence is re-arranged to avoid the license issue. Alan DeKok
