The files in here are mostly copyright (C) Free Software Foundation, and
|
|
are under assorted licenses. Mostly, but not entirely, GPL.
|
|
|
|
Many modules are provided dual-license, either GPL or LGPL at your
|
|
option. The headers of files in the lib directory (e.g., lib/error.c)
|
|
state GPL for convenience, since the bulk of current gnulib users are
|
|
GPL'd programs. But the files in the modules directory (e.g.,
|
|
modules/error) state the true license of each file, and when you use
|
|
'gnulib-tool --lgpl --import <modules>', gnulib-tool either rewrites
|
|
the files to have an LGPL header as part of copying them from gnulib
|
|
to your project directory, or fails because the modules you requested
|
|
were not licensed under LGPL.
|
|
|
|
Some of the source files in lib/ have different licenses. Also, the
|
|
copy of maintain.texi in doc/ has a verbatim-copying license, and
|
|
doc/standards.texi and make-stds.texi are GFDL.
