Subject: [PATCH] LICENSE: Clarify language in Asterisk's LICENSE to allow for
 linking to UniMRCP

The UniMRCP project distributes Asterisk modules that integrate Asterisk with
UniMRCP, and other Asterisk users use the UniMRCP library as well.
Unfortunately, the UniMRCP license is Apache 2.0, which per the Free Software
Foundation, is not a compatible license with the GPLv2.

"Please note that this license is not compatible with GPL version 2, because it
has some requirements that are not in that GPL version. These include certain
patent termination and indemnification provisions. The patent termination
provision is a good thing, which is why we recommend the Apache 2.0 license for
substantial programs over other lax permissive licenses."

On the other hand, UniMRCP is a great project and we'd like to let people use
it with Asterisk.

This patch updates the LICENSE text to allow users to link Asterisk with
UniMRCP and distribute the resulting binaries.
