The following is intended to describe the essential +differences between the Academic Free License (AFL) version 1.0 and other +open source licenses: + +The Academic Free License is similar to the BSD, MIT, UoI/NCSA and Apache +licenses in many respects but it is intended to solve a few problems with +those licenses. + +* The AFL is written so as to make it clear what software is being +licensed (by the inclusion of a statement following the copyright notice +in the software). This way, the license functions better than a template +license. The BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses apply to unidentified software. + +* The AFL contains a complete copyright grant to the software. The BSD +and Apache licenses are vague and incomplete in that respect. + +* The AFL contains a complete patent grant to the software. The BSD, MIT, +UoI/NCSA and Apache licenses rely on an implied patent license and contain +no explicit patent grant. + +* The AFL makes it clear that no trademark rights are granted to the +licensor`s trademarks. The Apache license contains such a provision, but the +BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not. + +* The AFL includes the warranty by the licensor that it either owns the +copyright or that it is distributing the software under a license. None of +the other licenses contain that warranty. All other warranties are disclaimed, +as is the case for the other licenses. + +* The AFL is itself copyrighted (with the right granted to copy and distribute +without modification). This ensures that the owner of the copyright to the +license will control changes. The Apache license contains a copyright notice, +but the BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not. + |
