Open Source and Third-Party Licenses Used In CiscoWorks LAN Management Solution 4.0
OL-23497-01
  1.2 ACME 1.0
By the way, FreshMeat has a nice list of different types of freeware licenses. There are quite a few      
besides BSD and GPL. There’s also the OpenSource.org list of open source licenses, which is not      
quite the same as the freeware licenses.

ACME Labs Freeware License      
Here are some questions people ask about the license:      
"Can I use your software      
in a freeware product? "      
Sure.      
"Can I use your software      
in a commercial product?      
Do I have to pay you? "      
Yes you can, and no you don’t have to, although we certainly won’t object to any checks you      
care to send our way.      
"If I use your software as      
part of my product, do I      
have to include your      
source code? Or my source      
code?" "      
No. You’re thinking of the Gnu license. Our license just says that if you distribute our source      
code then you must leave in the license text; but you are free to use it in binary-only form if      
you like, and put the license text in your documentation instead.      
"Can I make my own version      
of your software? "      
Of course.      
"Can I distribute my own      
version of your software? "      
Yes, although unless it’s just a repackaging we’d prefer that you didn’t. Having multiple      
versions of the same thing floating around is inherently distasteful. If you absolutely must      
distribute your own modified version of our software, please name it something else to avoid      
confusing people.      
"Would you please send me      
a signed disclaimer, so      
my company’s lawyers are      
happy? "      
No. The license in the source code is sufficient.      
"We don’t want to put      
your license in our
