Curl license clarification
ryandesign opened this issue · comments
The COPYING file says:
This program uses libcurl.so for http/ftp access.
This is released under the Mozilla public license (mpl).
and:
In summary: GPL + MIT public license,
+ Mozilla public license if edbrowse is packaged with curl.
I think the curl information is outdated. According to curl's license page they used to use the MPL (all traces of which were removed in October 2002) but now use an MIT derivative which SPDX identifies as a separate license ("the curl license").
Ok, this is clarified as you say.
Nice to know I can march along quietly and be 20 years out of date in some areas.
