[License-review] Larry’s licence and licencing only lawful uses (was Re: request for review of the 3D Slicer License)

[Thorsten Glaser]

Lawrence Rosen dixit:

>disclaims any copyright breach claim if the licensee breaks the law.

>15) Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not

This may not be enough. In cases where copyright violations don’t
need persecution by the copyright holder (not sure if there’s any
legislation in which this is actually the case anywhere), this is
just a promise of nōn-interference, not a declaration of that it
is not a violation of the licence.
