The code is distributed under the GPL, and you are therefore free to use, change and redistribute it. I do however highly encourage you to participate in the development of the codebase. If you are using the code in your work, please consider sharing bugfixes and experiences. Given the experimental status of the solver, I kindly ask that you get in touch before publishing any results concerning the TenStream solver to ensure correctness of the results. It would also be appreciated to discuss co-authorship for research publications conducted with the TenStream solver.
