No, you're thinking of the Synergy 2.x codebase. No one uses that and it's why Barrier exists. But Synergy 1.x is open and free as in freedom.

Gotcha, thanks. I used to use Synergy 1.x, and it was great. Recently returned to the fray and didn't have time to build-from-source (or didn't find an easy 1.x installer for new OS X) so grumble-grumbled and paid for Synergy 2. and expensed it.
