I just noticed that we have fmodex (a proprietary audio library) in [community]. Considering the discussion we had recently about steam, I think that the situation is similar here. The "FMOD Non-Commercial License" does not explicitely allow redistribution and allow only non-commercial use [1]. In the svn repository, there is a PERMISSION file [2], but it looks quite imprecise to me.
I am not very good in legal stuff, but I think that we need a more formal permission to redistribute a possibly modified version of this package and to make sure they won't sue us because of the "non-commercial" specification.

The CEO himself answered me there. Isn't that official enough?
