<code>SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT</code>
<p>Type: Permissive</p>
<br>
<p><a href="https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html" class="body-link"
>MIT License</a> is a highly permissive license which allows content licensed under it to be
used in any way, whether in source or binary form, and allows sublicensing under a different
license, with the only restriction being the original copyright notice must be kept in order
to attribute the original creator of the licensed content.<br>
Due to this license allowing the original project's name and/or contributors to be used to
endorse or promote products derived from the original project, unless an explicit statement
is made alongside this license, increasing complexity and deviating from the standard
license text, we prefer <a href="#licensing-bsd-3-clause-clear" class="body-link"
>BSD 3-Clause Clear License</a>; however, MIT License is a great choice when derivatives
using the name of the original project and/or its contributors is a non-issue.</p>

>GNU General Public License v2.0</a></h5>
<code>SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only</code>
<p>Type: Copyleft</p>
<br>
<p><a href="https://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-2.0-only.html" class="body-link"
>GNU General Public License v2.0</a> is a strong copyleft license which restricts use of
content licensed under it by requiring all source code of the content to be publicly
available, making binary-only form and inclusion of proprietary code impossible, requiring
all derivatives to be licensed under the same license (allowing sublicensing under only
newer GPL licenses if <code>GPL-2.0-or-later</code> is specified in the
SPDX-License-Identifier), and requiring the original copyright notice to be kept in order to
attribute the original creator of the licensed content.<br>
Due to the restrictive and invasive nature of this license, it is avoided unless such
restrictions would be beneficial to Inferencium code; whenever this is the case, the GNU
General Public License v2.0 will be used, rather than the more restrictive
<a href="#licensing-gpl-3.0" class="body-link"
>GNU General Public License v3.0</a>, and relicensing derivatives under the GNU General
Public License v3.0 will be disallowed.</p>
