I actually bothered to look at the IP issues when developing spandsp. Most
projects ignore them, and just hope they go away. Nobody seems to worry about
that. A due diligence file that addresses things and finds them to be OK worries
people. Weird.

I could find no patents problems with anything except V.17. Other patents have
lond expired (e.g. one on V.29). I couldn't track down the exact patent IBM
claim on V.17. However, I think it relates to trellis coding, and I think it
should be mid 80s vintage. That means it should be OK outside the US, but might
need checking for the exact expiry date in the US.
