From COPYING.txt: HTMLDOC License Agreement Copyright 1997-2006 by Easy Software Products 44141 AIRPORT VIEW DR STE 204 HOLLYWOOD, MARYLAND 20636 USA Voice: +1.301.373.9600 Email: info@easysw.com WWW: http://www.htmldoc.org INTRODUCTION HTMLDOC is distributed in both source code and binary (executable) forms. The source code is provided under the terms of the GNU General Public License ("GPL") with a license exception for the OpenSSL toolkit. A copy of the exception and license follows this introduction. The binaries are provided under a typical commercial software end-user license agreement which is more restrictive than the GNU GPL. SOURCE CODE AND THE GNU GPL For those not familiar with the GNU GPL, the license basically allows you to: - Use the HTMLDOC software at no charge. - Distribute verbatim copies of the software in source form or as binaries you create. - Sell verbatim copies of the software for a media fee, or sell support for the software. - Distribute or sell your own modified version of HTMLDOC so long as the source code is made available under the GPL. What this license *does not* allow you to do is make changes or add features to HTMLDOC and then sell a binary distribution without source code. You must provide source for any changes or additions to the software, and all code must be provided under the GPL. TRADEMARKS Easy Software Products has trademarked the HTMLDOC name. You may use the name in any direct port or binary distribution of HTMLDOC. Please contact Easy Software Products for written permission to use the name in derivative products. Our intention is to protect the value of this trademark and ensure that any derivative product meets the same high-quality standards as the original. BINARY DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS Easy Software Products also sells rights to the HTMLDOC source code under a binary distribution license for vendors that are unable to release source code for their additions and modifications to HTMLDOC under the GNU GPL. For information please contact us at the address shown above. BINARIES AND SUPPORT Easy Software Products sells commercial HTMLDOC binaries and support.
