I have not looked at these libraries myself yet. But if they are as good
as you say they are(are they completely usable as of now?) then
there should really be no problem using them.
The reason is, when someone chooses to release code without a license
then that means they can never charge money for that version that was
released (at least thats how I think it legally works). So if they did decide
to start charging money then they could only charge for new versions
they put out. Since we would already have the source code from before
we could always modify it ourselves to add any features that they might
add. And if for some reason there became a problem with that we could
always dump it :)
