DEVELOPMENT VERSION: This is an experimental DALICC environment. Features, data and APIs may change or be reset without notice. A stable version of this service, with a potentially different feature set, will be made available soon at dalicc.net.

Changes to the license models


What DALICC changed in its curated models, when, and why.

A license model is corrected when a reading of the legal text turns out to be wrong. Every correction changes what the compatibility checker answers, so each change below names the reason behind it and links to the record it was made on.

6081 changes, page 26 of 122.

Section 3.2 lets a distributor 'Distribute the Program under a license different than this Agreement', under which a fee may be charged, which is the licence-fee permission its three siblings carry.
