- This files attempts to clarify the licensing situation for the SANE
- distribution. In case of doubt, the copyright information contained
- in each file overrides what is said here.
-
- SANE consists of three parts each of which has its own licensing
- terms:
-
- * The frontend programs.
-
- These programs are generally protected by the GNU General Public
- License. (See file COPYING.)
-
- * The backend libraries.
-
- Backend libraries are protected by the GNU General Public License (see
- file COPYING), but as an exception, it is permissible to link against
- such a library without affecting the licensing status of the program
- that uses the libraries. For details, see the copyright notice at the
- head of the backend files (e.g., backend/dll.c).
-
- Note that some of the backends have additional licensing constraints.
- E.g., the DC210 backend uses JPG code that is licensed as described
- in backend/djpeg.README.gz.
-
- * The SANE API and network protocol as put forth in the standard document.
-
- The standard is considered to be in the public domain. Anyone is free
- to implement SANE interface conforming applications or libraries in
- any way he or she sees fit.
