From portsentry's 1.1 license: "DISTRIBUTION OF MODIFIED SOURCE CODE WITHOUT PSIONIC'S PERMISSION IS PROHIBITED." From 0.61's license: Distribution of modified source code without the author's permission is prohibited. Basically, no one can take it over.
You missed an important point - Cisco *IS* entirely within its rights to *NOT* distribute it, in any form, modified or otherwise. I've not analyzed Cisco's product line closely enough to determine whether they bought Psionic to fill a hole in their product line, or to eliminate a competitor to a weak spot in their line. Acquisitions *do* happen for both reasons, you know....
