No claim of +copyright is made on any part of the core source code. (The +documentation and test code is a different matter - some sections of +documentation and test logic are governed by open-source licenses.) +All contributors to the SQLite core software have signed affidavits +specifically disavowing any copyright interest in the code. This means +that anybody is able to legally do anything they want with the SQLite +source code. + +There are other SQL database engines with liberal licenses that allow +the code to be broadly and freely used. But those other engines are +still governed by copyright law. SQLite is different in that copyright +law simply does not apply. + +The source code files for other SQL database engines typically begin +with a comment describing your legal rights to view and copy that +file. The SQLite source code contains no license since it is not +governed by copyright. Instead of a license, the SQLite source code +offers a blessing: + +May you do good and not evil +May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others +May you share freely, never taking more than you give. |
