See the GNU General Public License for more details. I looked at a number of various licenses and decided that the GNU GPL and LGPL would guarantee freedom for future users of this software to both add and enhance it. A close runner-up was the beerware license in that it provided the freedom I wanted my users to have. The problem with it is that it does not guarantee that freedom past one distribution cycle. So I release the software under the following license: All software is released under the GNU GPL Version 3, with the understanding that if you find the software useful, and we meet up in a bar sometime you can feel free to buy me a drink. If you wish to license any bit of my software for commercial purposes, I will release a custom source set under the GNU LGPL under certain circumstances. Please contact me at sean@seanmadden.net for further details so we can work out an arragement.
