Like other open source projects and software the name myKeds shall denote the project itself, the resulting software and the collection of documenting html pages and other documents. myKeds is offer you in the sense of free software and free documents:

Content Licenses

All myKeds documents - directly published under http://www.mykeds.net/ or offered under ther download area http://www.fodina.de/download/mykeds - are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Germany License: Feel free to share (to copy, distribute, display, perform, ...) or to remix (to make derivative works) by respecting the following specification which completes the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Germany License :

  • In an internet based reuse link the reused parts to www.mykeds.net in a suitable manner.
  • In a paper-like reuse insert a short hint to fodina.de and its author, Karsten Reincke, into your preface and use normal methods to cite.

Application Licenses

The mykeds software itself is mostly offered under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. For details have a look at the software tarballs themselves.

In some cases it's better to offer a licensing with exception or dual licensing model: EPL and GPL seems to be incompatible . Fore such cases the GNU organization offered a solution: the exception clause. Another solution could be the dual/multi licensing. Therefore some mykeds modules are doubly licensed or the license contains an exception. (For details of license combination see also the analyzis of the license compatibility.)

External Documents and Software

External pages and software - connected to myKeds by links - are exclusively determined by their own licences and conditions. The range of myKeds licences is determined by the domain mykeds.net
