SMILE LICENSE INFORMATION
Copyright (c) 2010-2021 Haifeng Li. All rights reserved.
SMILE employs a dual license model designed to meet the development
and distribution needs of both commercial distributors (such as OEMs,
ISVs and VARs) and open source projects.
GNU General Public License Usage
SMILE may be used under the terms of the GNU General Public License
version 3 as published by the Free Software Foundation and appearing
in the file COPYING included in the Software. In order to preserve
the true meaning of open development and uphold the spirit of free
software, it is imperative that the rules and regulations of open
source licenses required by the Free Software Foundation are followed.
Learn more: http://www.gnu.org/licenses.
The SMILE open source licensing is ideal for use cases such as
Free Open Source Software ("FOSS") applications under the GPL
that want to combine and distribute those FOSS applications with
SMILE software, student/academic purposes, hobby projects,
internal research projects without external distribution,
or other projects where all GPL obligations can be met.
Commercial License Usage
OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), ISVs (Independent Software
Vendors), VARs (Value Added Resellers) and other distributors that
combine and distribute commercially licensed software with SMILE
must enter into a commercial license agreement with SMILE.AI, LLC.
The commercial SMILE license gives you the full rights to create
and distribute software on your own terms without any open source
license obligations. With the commercial license you also have
access to the official SMILE Support and close strategic relationship
with SMILE.AI, LLC to make sure your development goals are met.
To acquire a commerical license, please contact [email protected].
