Hi Paul,
Thank you for the patch.

You could add this method to the IPAModule class. It would then have to
be documented, which would ensure the documentation is explicit about
what licenses are considered open-source.
As you only accept GPL licenses for now, should the method be named
isGPL() ?

"initialize" seems to imply the init() method, which isn't called here.
How about "if no matching IPA module is found or if the module interface
can't be accessed" ? I'm still not very happy with that sentence, so if
you have a better idea please propose it.

You can write
for (ProxyFactor *factory : ProxyFactory::factories()) {

/**

*/

Which requires exposing a libPath() method to the IPAModule class, but I
think you will need that anyway as the configuration file will likely
associate a library path with a proxy (we can't trust the name reported
by the module itself, or any information it contains for that matter, to
decide which proxy to use).)
