The OPNsense project wants to be a project that is friendly for users,
|
|
|
developers and partners. In this world with trademarks and copyright it
|
|
|
is best to “keep things as simple as possible, but not simpler”. Below
|
|
|
we pointed out the Licensing and Trademark rules we use.

We like the BSD license, a simple two clause license that gives freedom to the

|
|
audience we want to serve. It basically gives you the right to do whatever you
|
|
|
want to do with the code, even fork it and take it from there.
