LICENSES
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The applicable and approved licenses for the source files
|
|
of the Firebird RDBMS project are:
|
|
|
|
1) InterBase Public License (IPL), version 1.0
|
|
http://bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,30198,00.html
|
|
|
|
2) Initial Developer's Public License (IDPL), version 1.0
|
|
http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_idpl
|
|
|
|
The IPL is copyright of Borland Corp., the other licenses are copyright
|
|
by the source code authors and contributors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USAGE RULES
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
1) The source code which was released under the IPL must keep this license.
|
|
All modifications / adaptations of this code are still subjects of the IPL.
|
|
|
|
2) The files that are derived from the IPL covered code, must also keep
|
|
this license. It means that if any new file contains some code covered by
|
|
the IPL, then this file should be released under the IPL too.
|
|
|
|
3) The new files developed by the members of the Firebird project should
|
|
be released under the IDPL.
|
|
|
|
4) The new files contributed by people who are not members of the Firebird
|
|
project should follow the rule #3. If an author (initial developer) doesn't
|
|
specify the license to be used, the person who applies the contributed code
|
|
to the CVS tree (a committer) becomes responsible for the license assigned
|
|
to the contributed code.
|
|
|
|
5) Every non-binary file that exists in the CVS tree, should have a header
|
|
section which describes the license this code is released under. If a file
|
|
contains no header, it means that this code is freeware and nobody owns the
|
|
appropriate copyrights.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may find the exhibits for the approved licenses in /doc/license directory
|
|
of the CVS tree.
