## Anhang E. The Licenses

## X11 License

Most of the source code is licensed under the X11 License. This is a simple, permissive non-copyleft free software license, compatible with the GNU GPL. XFree86 uses the same license. This is sometimes called the "MIT" license, but that term is misleading since MIT has used many licenses for software.
