Blender is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL, or “free software”). This license grants people a number of freedoms: You are free to use Blender, for any purpose You are free to distribute Blender You can study how Blender works and change it You can distribute changed versions of Blender. The GPL strictly aims at protecting these freedoms, requiring everyone to share their modifications when they also share the software in public. That aspect is commonly referred to as Copyleft. The Blender Foundation and its projects on blender.org are committed to preserving Blender as free software. License details. The source code we develop at blender.org is default being licensed as GNU GPL Version 2 or later. Some modules we make are using more permissive licenses, though, for example, the Blender Cycles rendering engine is available as Apache 2.0. Blender also uses many modules or libraries from other projects. For example, Python uses the Python License; Bullet uses the Zlib License; Libmv uses the MIT License; and OSL, a BSD License. All the components that together make Blender are compatible under the newer GNU GPL Version 3. That is also the license to use for any distribution of Blender binaries. Your Artwork. What you create with Blender is your sole property. All your artwork – images or movie files – including the .blend files and other data files Blender can write, is free for you to use as you like. That means that Blender can be used commercially by artists, by studios to make animation films or VFX, by game artists to work on commercial games, by scientists for research, and by students in educational institutions. Blender’s GNU GPL license guarantees you this freedom. Nobody is ever permitted to take it away, in contrast to trial or “educational” versions of commercial software that will forbid your work in commercial situations. Privacy and Internet access. Blender respects your privacy, no registration is needed, no connection to the internet is made if you decide to install and use Blender. Blender does not need internet to function properly. Some add-ons bundled with Blender may access the internet for additional services. These add-ons are not enabled on installing Blender. These add-ons are not required to be enabled for proper functioning of the software, nor will any Blender function ask for enabling such add-ons. Add-ons that require internet will ask a user explicit permission to use internet while or after enabling the add-on. Note: this applies to the official version provided via blender.org. We always recommend you to use the official releases. Sharing or selling Blender add-ons (Python scripts) Blender’s Python API is an integral part of the software, used to define the user interface or develop tools for example. The GNU GPL license therefore requires that such scripts (if published) are being shared under a GPL compatible license. You are free to sell such scripts, but the sales then is restricted to the download service itself. Your customers will receive the script under the same license (GPL), with the same free conditions as everyone has for Blender. Sharing Blender or Blender add-ons or scripts is always OK and not considered piracy. FAQ for Artists. We collected the most common Frequently Asked Questions here. Website license. Most of the blender website is available as Creative Commons Attribution, with some exceptions. Read about that here. A open-source, free and non-commercial license? [closed] Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Stack Overflow. Closed 7 years ago . I know that topic was already discussed a lot of times here, but none answer answered my question. Since licenses like GPL, MIT, Apache and other common licenses don't answer my question, I will try describe the license I'm looking for my programming projects: Required: Open-source and free Include a copy of license in the code. Allow: Share: modify, publish, copy, distribute and transmit at the same license Private, company, government. ultimately, anyone can use this project. Not allow: Hold liable Use trademark Patent any part of the project Commercial usage (if you want fork this project, you can't force earn money with it [by any way], except if users want donate because THEY think this is a good project) So, anyone can help me? If don't exist, can I create something like that? What I tried before ask: - Any license attends to what I want. - He don't want allow publish other projects with her code. - Don't have licenses like that for softwares. - "Can I use a Creative Commons license for software? We do not recommend it." 1 Answer 1. This is not open source. Open source must always allow commercial use, that's part of the Open Source Definition. What you can do however, is what the AGPL does, which is require publishing a working link to the complete source code to a live running web application on its site. Since most commercial users don't want to do that, it effectively prohibits most commercial use in the form of a public-facing web application. Can I use GPL software in a commercial application. If I use GPL software in my application, but don't modify or distribute it, do I have to release my application under the GPL? What if I modify some software that my application uses. Then do I have to release my application under the GPL, or can I just supply the modified software under the GPLs terms. And what if I use GPL software, but don't modify it, can I distribute it with my application? My case in point is, I have a PHP framework which I use the GeSHi library to highlight some output. Because GeSHi is GPL, does my framework have to be GPL? Can I modify GeSHi for particular use cases of my application if I supply the modifications back to the GeSHi maintainers? Can I redistribute my framework with GeSHi? 6 Answers 6. If I use GPL software in my application, but don't modify or distribute it, do I have to release my application under the GPL? ANSWER: Your question is a little ambiguous. Two cases: (a) If you do not distribute YOUR APPLICATION, then the answer is No, because you did not distribute your application. For example if it was for internal use only in your company, then you have no obligation to do anything. (b) If you do distribute YOUR APPLICATION, and you used something GPL as part of your application (even if only linking at run-time to a library) - and even if you do not charge money - and even if you do not change that GPL s/w in any way - then you MUST make the source of YOUR APPLICATION available. Making source available does not mean download. IT might be that you must get a written request and you send a photocopy of a listing (see comments: you can't actually send a listing. This was exaggeration to make a point) . You are allowed to charge a "reasonable" handling / copying charge. But you can not escape the obligation to make your own source code available. What if I modify some software that my application uses. Then do I have to release my application under the GPL, or can I just supply the modified software under the GPLs terms. ANSWER: See above. If you used GPL s/w, then you must make your source code available. This includes the modified GPL code. And what if I use GPL software, but don't modify it, can I distribute it with my application? ANSWER: See above. You can distribute it (the GPL code), provided you make your source available. Because GeSHi is GPL, does my framework have to be GPL? ANSWER: If you distribute your framework, then YES. Can I modify GeSHi for particular use cases of my application if I supply the modifications back to the GeSHi maintainers? ANSWER: You can if you want to. You don't have to. You could modify it, but when you distribute your application you are obliged to make your source available and also the source for the modifications you made to the library. Can I redistribute my framework with GeSHi? ANSWER: You can if you want to. If your application is not distributed with the GPL code and you make users download it separately to make use of it, then your case is a little bit more special and might provoke some argument, but the same principle will most likely ultimately apply: you must make your source available. If you want to avoid these problems then you need to use things with a different license or at the very least the LGPL which will allow run-time calling of libraries without the viral-spread of the GPL conditions back to your code.

    From Content to Knowledge: a Perspective on CMS**

    AUTOMATYKA 2007 Tom 11 Zeszyt 12 Grzegorz J. Nalepa*, Antoni Ligêza*, Igor Wojnicki* From Content to Knowledge: a Perspective on CMS** 1. Introduction The Internet has become a single most important resource for instant information shar- ing. From the point of view of ordinary users it can be considered to constitute a very fle- xible and powerful version of the concept of the so-called blackboard architecture. The rapid growth of the Internet prompted a rapid development of specific software. This software addresses different aspects of information organization and interchange related issues, such as storing, retrieval, searching, indexing, aggregating, sharing, updating, etc. Taking into account the size and flexibility of the system as a whole, these problems consti- tute a real challenge. Content Management Systems (CMS for short) emerged as a technology providing a unified interface for large databases or data warehouses. In a broad sense a CMS consists of: a RDBMS (Relational Data Base System) which stores the data, and a complex web- based application or interface providing the access to the data. The web interface is built around using common web technologies. This software requires a proper and efficient run- time environment, including a web server. An important aspect of a CMS system is the possibility of user personalization, tracking, and interactive use. Today web technologies constitute an advanced and universal programming frame- work. This framework has a very heterogeneous structure including: data encoding and structuring languages (such as HTML and XML), meta-data languages (such as RDF), data transformation languages (such as XSL/T/FO), data presentation languages (such as CSS), server-side programming languages (such as PHP, JSP), and client-side programming lan- guages (such as Javascript).
