Frequently Asked Questions

If there are two licenses, why would I want to use NPL?

Netscape Public License FAQ
If you are making a "Modification", you are required to. If you are contributing new code and not a modification to existing code, then the choice between the NPL and another license, such as the MozPL, is up to you. If you are comfortable with the rights that the NPL grants to Netscape, then by all means feel free to use it.

How does the NPL compare?

Netscape Public License FAQ
The NPL and MozPL both attempt to strike a middle ground between promoting free source development by commercial enterprises and protecting free source developers. Like the GPL, they require that any and all changes to code covered by the license must be made publicly available. However, they also allow you to combine covered code with other code to create a larger work without requiring that other code to be covered by the license. This is similar to, but even less restrictive, than the LGPL.

Will the NPL apply to Netscape as well?

Netscape Public License FAQ
When Netscape uses code created under the NPL, it must comply with the NPL. However, under the NPL, Netscape, as the Initial Developer, has unique rights that allow it to use code in ways that others cannot. This was necessary because (1) the code is part of an existing product line, and (2) Netscape has a number of pre-existing contracts to supply source code with which it must be able to comply.

I want to use epcEdit on Linux and Windows. Do I need two epcEdit licenses?

epcEdit 1.2 frequently asked questions
No. Licenses for epcEdit are multi-platform licenses, and the license key can be used on all supported platforms as long as you comply with the epcEdit license agreement.

Why do you have a two year time limit in amendment V.2 of the NPL?

Netscape Public License FAQ
This section is here because of the state of Netscape's code today. Netscape has a number of server products that contain NPL code. We intend to make sure those products can comply with the terms of NPL license as soon as practical.

Why don't you just release the source under both the NPL and the GPL right from the start?

Netscape Public License FAQ
The NPL and GPL are incompatible, as we explain in the question about using code covered by the GPL with code covered by the NPL. If we were to take this tack, we would cause an immediate and irreparable split in development on the Mozilla code base. This split would greatly minimize the benefit that Netscape would see from free source development, and because of this, the company is not able to consider releasing its code under the GPL.

Why do you allow yourselves to license code covered by the NPL under different terms?

Netscape Public License FAQ
First of all, let us reiterate that any alternate licensing only applies to code covered by the NPL, not the MozPL. Netscape has entered into license agreements for its source code in the past. Several of these agreements continue to be in effect, and we are contractually bound to service them.

What do you want to use?

A Bird's Home
I have three different kinds of houses at my site, wooden houses, plastic and natural gourds and I can honestly say this. The martins seem to prefer the large, white natural gourds first and then they select the other two types of houses second. But this is in my area, martins in your area may prefer something different. And as for aluminum houses that seem to have problems attracting martins, I do know that hanging 4 large natural gourds under them will help attract them faster.

Why would I want to use the Handle System?

HANDLE.NET FAQs
There are many reasons you might want to use the Handle System, but one simple one is that you have information and other resources represented in digital form, sometimes called digital content, that you want users to access via the Internet and you plan to keep that content available over long periods of time.
