It also bears pointing out that Kamailio, Freeswitch, etc. are mostly
rather low-level engines, more akin to an SDK in many cases. They
provide a software platform, and custom languages, in which to develop
value-added services, not entirely unlike Bash or Python do. 

One cannot, for example, resell "stock" Kamailio. It doesn't do
anything. You have to write it. Pretty much from scratch. So, there's no
contradiction between using it and proffering "own code".
