Hi,<br><br>We have a product that we're about to release under the Modified BSD<br>license. There is some confusion as to whether we also need a EULA of<br>some kind as well, since Firefox seems to have both the MPL and a
<br>EULA. Upon installation of the software, is it sufficient to just<br>show the modified BSD license to the user? Can anyone help?\</blockquote><div><br>Aside from the fact that this list doesn't give legal advice, I suppose it depends. (IANAL).
<br><br>The basic thing is that open source licenses permit use under all circumstances and so one shouldn't ever need a EULA per se.<br><br>You probably want to seek legal advice given the specifics of what you are trying to do. Most of the time, open source licenses amount to a set of conditions where one is allowed to redistribute/modify the software. Hence if they don't agree with the license, they can only use the software.
