>Licensing</a></h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Inferencium cares about upstreaming and sharing code, strongly preferring licenses which
|
||||||
|
have high license compatibility in order to permit sharing code with as many other projects
|
||||||
|
as possible; for this reason, permissive licenses are our preferred choice, while avoiding
|
||||||
|
copyleft licenses and other licenses which place restrictions on how our code may be used,
|
||||||
|
and prevent us from including important proprietary code, such as firmware, which can patch
|
||||||
|
security vulnerabilities, privacy issues, and stability issues. All Inferencium code is and
|
||||||
|
will be permissively licensed unless specific circumstances make it impractical or
|
||||||
|
infeasible to do so. Our goal is to share code which has the least amount of restrictions as
|
||||||
|
possible, to allow wider propagation of our code and allow more use cases and possibilities,
|
||||||
|
as well as ensuring proprietary code, whenever required, is permitted to be included.</p>

that patent rights are not granted by the license alone, and must be granted separately by

the copyright and/or patent holder(s). We prefer this license over the BSD 3-Clause "New" or

|
misunderstanding in regards to patents applied to code using the BSD 3-Clause "New" or

Due to this license allowing the original project's name and/or contributors to be used to

>GNU General Public License v2.0</a> is a strong copyleft license which restricts use of

content licensed under it by requiring all source code of the content to be publicly
|

available, making binary-only form and inclusion of proprietary code impossible, requiring
|

all derivatives to be licensed under the same license (allowing sublicensing under only

attribute the original creator of the licensed content.<br>
|

|
Due to the restrictive and invasive nature of this license, it is avoided unless such
|
||||||
|
restrictions would be beneficial to Inferencium code; whenever this is the case, the GNU
|

General Public License v2.0 will be used, rather than the more restrictive
|

<a href="#licensing-gpl-3.0" class="body-link"

avoided completely.</p>
