It's not acceptable as a dependency of an OpenStack project (be it GPLv2
or using a custom EULA), see:

https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/licensing.html

That said, it doesn't seem to be listed as a Cinder requirement right
now ? Is it a new dependency being considered, or is it currently flying
under the radar ?
