cryptlib 3.0

cryptlib is distributed under a dual license that allows free, open-source use under a GPL-compatible license and closed-source use under a standard commercial license. The GPL-compatible license (a.k.a. the Sleepycat license) is given below. A good overview and background behind the Sleepycat license, which also applies for cryptlib, is also available.

If you`re unable to comply with the above license then the following, alternate usage conditions apply:

Any large-scale commercial use of cryptlib requires a license. "Large-scale commercial use" means any revenue-generating purpose such as use for company- internal purposes, or use of cryptlib in an application or product, with a total gross revenue of over US$5,000. This allows cryptlib to be used in freeware and shareware applications, for evaluation and research purposes, and for non-revenue-generating or personal use without charge. In addition the author reserves the right to grant free licenses for commercial use in special cases (for example where there is a general benefit to the public), contact the author for details if you think you qualify.
