Κι εγώ
GPL προτίμησα
Δεν το'ψαξα σχεδόν καθόλου βέβαια αφού με καλύπτουν οι όροι της συγκεκριμένης
Μερικά αποσπάσματα (από το prample):
the GNU General Public License is intended
to guarantee your freedom to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free software for all its users
When we speak of free software,
we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
To
protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
Developers that use the GNU
GPL protect your rights with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
For the developers' and authors' protection, the
GPL clearly explains that
there is no warranty for this free softwareFinally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents. States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the
GPL assures that patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
