Instead of making funny little comments, please provide an example where GPL3 will be an obstacle to this code being used.

You have all of the code, including the TCP/IP code and the applications. The design of the code is such that there is no "library" - you directly compile all of the code and link it with your application. The library is not a standalone component that gets built first, so there is no obstacle to using it.

If you can show me where GPL3 makes this code unusable, do so.
