LGPL V3 and GPL2 allows you to use Gluster's api (e.g: libgfapi) to use 
in proprietary software. But proprietary code can't be put in to 
Gluster's code base. That means any code put in to GLusterFS should 
follow GPL v2 and LGPL v3+ . However I am not a lawyer,  so  please find 
a licensing expert or lawyer for any IP legal advice.
