License - Aneuch Wiki

Editing version 5 of page License (the most recent revision is 15)

Some people may be surprised to learn that I have licensed Aneuch under a revised BSD license,
instead of something like the GNU GPL. Without getting into a debate or "holy war," let's just say
that a license like that of the BSD variety provides the most amount of freedom, //in my opinion.//

Basically, this license gives you the right to do just about anything with the code you want, subject
to the conditions of the license. Which, I might add, is extremely easy to read. Have you ever tried
to read the GPL? Let's just say I didn't make it very far. The BSD license, however, is super easy
to read and comprehend. I've included it below, for your reference.
