This is a comparison of published free software licenses.

General comparison

The following table compares various features of each license and is a general guide to the terms and conditions of each license.

Note that a "yes" in either of the last two columns (Link with code using a different license and Release changes under a different license) is not an absolute answer, there may still be restrictions in the license related to this action. You should review the specific license terms<ref name="ref_OSI"/> and refer to the reference table<ref name="ref_Rusin">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> for more details regarding a "yes" in these columns.
