[ODE] Convex Geometry

[Rodrigo Hernandez]

Yes, it is, but it is one version behind SOLID 3.5, if it was to be 
further developed, it would be for
all practical uses a SOLID fork.

Although I am positive he (dtecta) handed me the sourceforge project and 
he agreed to switch
FreeSOLID to LGPL, I dont think that FreeSOLID having a GPL license 
would be an issue,
since, LGPL and GPL are compatible, and as long as it is ODE the one 
linking against FreeSOLID, and not your closed source application 
directly linking against FreeSOLID,
I dont think you would be breaking any of the rules.
