In plain english, the GPL basically restricts you from restricting other people's use of the LADCCA source code (ie, all of LADCCA), and any additions you make to the code, including linking with the LADCCA library. If you use code from this software, your software must be relased under the GPL. If you modify this software and release it, your modifications must be released under the GPL. If you release software linked against the LADCCA library, your software must be released under the GPL.
Note that this in no way restricts those people who want to release non-free LADCCA clients. LADCCA operates using a well defined protocol over TCP sockets. The high-level protocol is described within this document and the lower-level bit-wise protocol can be garnered from the source itself.
