Yep, I'm quoting the answer to my email:

"
Hey, Milos,

I fixed compilation with recent Audacious versions in 3.1.0-rc7.
[http://www.luminal.org/files/imms/imms-3.1.0-rc7.tar.bz2]

I am fairly sure all the code in question is GPL. I made sure of that
before including it.
I do not have the time to follow up with the authors of the code right
now, but I'm certainly willing to apply any patches to clarify
licenses.
Perhaps, Artur, the Debian IMMS maintainer (cc'ed) can help you there.
He already did some work on getting explicit releases from the
authors.

Have fun,
Michael.

It seems that all the thins are GPL indeed...looking into debian(lenny) imms
packages, I found following:

"

I'll prepare patches and request adding a LICENSE file into the source tarball
and license information to all the source files (and merging the gcc43 patch of
course too). I'd also include the above information as %doc. Would it be ok
then?

Regarding the review: the audacious plugin is working now, updated link are
here:

New SPEC: http://mjakubicek.fedorapeople.org/imms/imms.spec
New SRPM:
http://mjakubicek.fedorapeople.org/imms/imms-3.1.0-0.3.rc7.fc10.src.rpm
Koji scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1125850

As there are now both xmms and audacious plugins available, I'm considering
splitting the package into a main one and two subpackages (-xmms, -audacious),
I'm just not sure whether this wouldn't hit the usability from the user point
of view too much.
