Source code license?

Being an aspiring programmer, I jumped at the chance to peek through the source code provided with my purchase. However, I can't see anything within the code that indicates what license applies to the code and what people may and may not do with it. Could someone please clarify this for me? Thanks in advance!

Re: Source code license?

It's all in the public domain (not just source code, but everything).  No restrictions on use for any purpose.

There will be a "no_copyright.txt" file in v6 that explains this.

Does this extend to commercial works?

Yes!

"Any purpose" means "any purpose," including commercial, religious, sexual, educational, political, criminal, etc.

No restrictions.  Do whatever you want with it.

(Not that I could stop you, even if I wanted to.)
