Open Source Licenses

Overview

The licenses in this directory are taken from SPDX.

Naming Convention

The name of the file is the same as the identifier on the SPDX website with an extension of .txt. For instance, the "Academic Free License v1.1" license would be in a file called AFL-1.1.txt.

Special variants

Some licenses have special variants. E.g, the Apache-2.0 license has optional sections in it. And some licenses, like GPL-3.0, have a short "header" variant that's included in source files. The full text of the license and each of its special variants will be mapped to the same license. (Though the "header" form shouldn't be used in LICENSE files.)

Header Variants

The name of a license header variant is <identifier>.header.txt. So the GPL-3.0 header variant would be named: GPL-3.0.header.txt.

Optional Text Variants

TBD
