Licenses

This page divides the licenses that have been reviewed by the Launchpad staff into open and proprietary groups. Licenses that comply with Legal/ProjectLicensing are considered to be open, and the projects that use them are free to use Launchpad. Licenses that do not comply are considered to be proprietary. Projects with proprietary licenses can purchase a commercial subscription or change to an open license.
