Miranda IM's GNU GPL license violated

Four weeks ago it was discovered that a instant messenger application, called ZeeZ IM, was based on stolen source code from Miranda IM v0.2. ZeeZ IM was developed by the Australian/Russian company QuickRiver Ltd. The distribution of ZeeZ IM have been stopped but QuickRiver Ltd. has not yet provided the complete source code. More details are available in the official press release regarding this issue, which is published here:

We have also published the results from our analysis of ZeeZ IM here:
