DEVELOPMENT VERSION: This is an experimental DALICC environment. Features, data and APIs may change or be reset without notice. A stable version of this service, with a potentially different feature set, will be made available soon at dalicc.net.

Changes to the license models


What DALICC changed in its curated models, when, and why.

A license model is corrected when a reading of the legal text turns out to be wrong. Every correction changes what the compatibility checker answers, so each change below names the reason behind it and links to the record it was made on.

  • GNU Free Documentation License version 1.3 version 3 2026-10-02

    changed Duty: Share alike

    was Duty: Share alike

    Manual edit The share alike names the ways of combining it reaches and quotes the sentences that settle them (dalicc:reachesCombination, dalicc:reachEvidence). An aggregate is outside it; any work containing the Document, verbatim or modified, is a Modified Version and inside. A work made with the Document is not settled and is recorded as reached.

  • GNU General Public License v3.0 or later with GCC Runtime Library exception 3.1 version 5 2026-10-02

    added Prohibition: Add limitation

    Manual edit The text forbids further restrictions: "You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or affirmed under this License." A rider can therefore not be read together with the license. The record takes it from its base GPL-3.0-or-later.

  • GNU General Public License v3.0 or later with GCC Runtime Library exception 3.1 version 4 2026-10-02

    changed Permission: Excepted combination

    changed Permission: Excepted combination

    was Permission: Excepted combination

  • GNU General Public License v3.0 or later with GCC Runtime Library exception 3.1 version 3 2026-10-02

    changed Permission: Charge distribution fee

  • GNU General Public License v3.0 or later with GCC Runtime Library exception 3.1 version 5 2026-10-02

    changed Duty: Share alike

    was Duty: Share alike

    Manual edit The share alike names the ways of combining it reaches and quotes the sentences that settle them (dalicc:reachesCombination, dalicc:reachEvidence).

The record takes it from its base GPL-3.0-or-later.

  • GNU General Public License v3.0 or later with GCC Runtime Library exception 3.1 version 3 2026-10-02

    Manual edit Section 13 of the base text lets a covered work be linked or combined with a work under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License and the result be conveyed, and the base record names that compatibility. The exception only adds a permission, so the record names it as well.
