Microsoft Licensing Apology

  • Posted By Justin Gehtland on May 16, 2007

In my post about Silverlight, I described the Microsoft Permissive License as the “Nixon-mask” of open source licensing. I was confusing the MsPL with the Microsoft Limited Permissive License, which restricts usage of the code to Windows-only boxes. My apologies, the MsPL really seems like a fine (if redundant) addition to the OS Licensing space.
