Hi Christian!  Thanks for your enquiry.  It is not possible for us to
grant you a license under any other license.  There have been many
contributors to libpurple over the past 10 years, and it is not
feasible to track them all down and request their permission in using
a different license.  (It is also unlikely that everyone would be ok
with a non-GPL license, but this point is moot.)

Thanks,
Mark
