libjpeg-turbo Licenses
|
||
|
|
======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
libjpeg-turbo is covered by three compatible BSD-style open source licenses:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The IJG (Independent JPEG Group) License, which is listed in
|
||
|
|
[README.ijg](README.ijg)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This license applies to the libjpeg API library and associated programs
|
||
|
|
(any code inherited from libjpeg, and any modifications to that code.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The Modified (3-clause) BSD License, which is listed below
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This license covers the TurboJPEG API library and associated programs, as
|
||
|
|
well as the build system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The [zlib License](https://opensource.org/licenses/Zlib)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This license is a subset of the other two, and it covers the libjpeg-turbo
|
||
|
|
SIMD extensions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Complying with the libjpeg-turbo Licenses
|
||
|
|
=========================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This section provides a roll-up of the libjpeg-turbo licensing terms, to the
|
||
|
|
best of our understanding.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. If you are distributing a modified version of the libjpeg-turbo source,
|
||
|
|
then:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. You cannot alter or remove any existing copyright or license notices
|
||
|
|
from the source.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- Clause 1 of the IJG License
|
||
|
|
- Clause 1 of the Modified BSD License
|
||
|
|
- Clauses 1 and 3 of the zlib License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. You must add your own copyright notice to the header of each source
|
||
|
|
file you modified, so others can tell that you modified that file (if
|
||
|
|
there is not an existing copyright header in that file, then you can
|
||
|
|
simply add a notice stating that you modified the file.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- Clause 1 of the IJG License
|
||
|
|
- Clause 2 of the zlib License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. You must include the IJG README file, and you must not alter any of the
|
||
|
|
copyright or license text in that file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- Clause 1 of the IJG License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. If you are distributing only libjpeg-turbo binaries without the source, or
|
||
|
|
if you are distributing an application that statically links with
|
||
|
|
libjpeg-turbo, then:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Your product documentation must include a message stating:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This software is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG
|
||
|
|
Group.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- Clause 2 of the IJG license
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. If your binary distribution includes or uses the TurboJPEG API, then
|
||
|
|
your product documentation must include the text of the Modified BSD
|
||
|
|
License (see below.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- Clause 2 of the Modified BSD License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. You cannot use the name of the IJG or The libjpeg-turbo Project or the
|
||
|
|
contributors thereof in advertising, publicity, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- IJG License
|
||
|
|
- Clause 3 of the Modified BSD License
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. The IJG and The libjpeg-turbo Project do not warrant libjpeg-turbo to be
|
||
|
|
free of defects, nor do we accept any liability for undesirable
|
||
|
|
consequences resulting from your use of the software.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Origin**
|
||
|
|
- IJG License
|
||
|
|
- Modified BSD License
|
||
|
|
- zlib License

Why Three Licenses?
|
||
|
|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The zlib License could have been used instead of the Modified (3-clause) BSD
|
||
|
|
License, and since the IJG License effectively subsumes the distribution
|
||
|
|
conditions of the zlib License, this would have effectively placed
|
||
|
|
libjpeg-turbo binary distributions under the IJG License. However, the IJG
|
||
|
|
License specifically refers to the Independent JPEG Group and does not extend
|
||
|
|
attribution and endorsement protections to other entities. Thus, it was
|
||
|
|
desirable to choose a license that granted us the same protections for new code
|
||
|
|
that were granted to the IJG for code derived from their software.
