Default Firebird license - 05-31-2006 , 06:17 AM






Hi,

I have a question on firebird license. Is it legal to bundle Firebird
with a commercial (proprietary) product & sell the product? This
product will not be an open-source one & won't be charging cost for the
Firebird modules & will be licensed under proprietary license.

Thanks & Regards,
Raga

Additionally there is a FAQ
