In the hope to sorting out this issue I wrote an email to Andreas Schmidt  
explaining the problem and asking for permission to change or amend the  
license, I tried the email addresses registered in the source code, both  
addresses have delivery problems, a search returned a Linked In contact  
which I will try tomorrow.

If somebody knows  Andreas Schmidt current email address please send me a  
private message.

In the mean time, what should I do?, remove the barcode unit?
