I'm not sure what you mean by "free-as-in-beer", but they were released
open-source in hopes that others would be able to develop them further.
At the very least, I know for sure that the sound card driver is

for it since it only supports OSS. I'll have to check the licenses in
the files I have for details about distribution.
