Glyd

License

From v0.29.0 all of Glyd is under one license, the Business Source License 1.1.

The glyd crate and command line, the C ABI, the Python and Go bindings, the store (glyd-store) and the GPU package (glyd-gpu, which pip install "glyd[gpu]" brings, with the CUDA library) are all under the Business Source License 1.1. In short:

  • Free forever for personal and non-commercial use (including education, research and nonprofits) on computers you own or rent for yourself, and for anyone to try, test and develop with.
  • Commercial use needs a license: write to suryakoritala@getglyd.com.
  • Each version becomes Apache-2.0 four years after its release.

The source is available to read, copy and modify. The Business Source License is not an Open Source license. Its grant, as LICENSE states it:

You may use the Licensed Work free of charge, forever, for personal and other non-commercial purposes, including education, research and use by nonprofit organizations, and including production use on computers you own or rent for yourself. Any commercial production use, including use in a business or in a product or service offered to others, requires a commercial license from the Licensor (contact: suryakoritala@getglyd.com).

Earlier releases

Releases up to v0.28 keep the licenses they shipped with, in their tags and packages:

  • The codec (the glyd crate and command line, the C ABI, the Python and Go bindings): the BSD 3-Clause License or, at your option, the GNU General Public License version 2.
  • The store (glyd-store) and the GPU package (glyd-gpu, from v0.17.0): the Business Source License 1.1, on the terms of their own license files.

Code in the repository's third_party/ keeps its own license.
