LICENSE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The CGAL software consists of several parts, each of which is licensed under an open source license. It is also possible to obtain commercial licenses from GeometryFactory (www.geometryfactory.com) for all or parts of CGAL. The source code of the CGAL library can be found in the directories "src/CGAL", "src/CGALQt", "src/CGALQt4" and "include/CGAL" (with the exception of "include/CGAL/CORE", "include/CGAL/OpenNL" and "include/CGAL/PDB"). It is specified in each file of the CGAL library which license applies to it. This is either the GNU Lesser General Public License (as published by the Free Software Foundation; version 2.1 of the License) or the Q Public License (version 1.0), *depending on each file*. The texts of both licenses can be found in the files LICENSE.LGPL and LICENSE.QPL. Distributed along with CGAL (for the users' convenience), but not part of CGAL, are the following third-party libraries, available under their own licenses: - CORE, in the directories "include/CGAL/CORE" and "src/CGALCore", is licensed under the QPL (see LICENSE.QPL). - ImageIO, in the directory "src/CGALimageIO", is licensed under the LGPL (see LICENSE.LGPL). - PDB, in the directory "include/CGAL/PDB" and "src/CGALPDB" is licensed under the LGPL (see LICENSE.LGPL). - OpenNL, in the directory "include/CGAL/OpenNL", is licensed under the LGPL (see LICENSE.LGPL). All other files that do not have an explicit copyright notice (e.g., all examples and some demos) are licensed under a very permissive license. The exact license text can be found in the file LICENSE.FREE_USE. More information on the CGAL license can be found at http://www.cgal.org/license.html
