Why you get nervous of the new license?
The XFree86 Project, Inc is announcing that it has made a change to its license effective with the Third Release Candidate for the 4.4.0 series. This licence, like our previous, is fully free, (how do we know this? no less than the world authority on free software, RMS, has said so) and it's the hope of the XFree86 Project to no longer allow non-free licences into our tree so we can become a fully free-software compliant X product.
What motivated this stance and changes to the base license are the Project's desire to strengthen its stated policy of "You can do what you like with the code except claim you wrote it" . |
