What's a "non-permissible license"?



An example of a nonpermissive license is the General Public License (GPL) that ensures users have the freedom and responsibility to share their changes with the community.


Thanks. Haven't heard of it described as "nonpermissive" before. People generally refer to things like that as "copyleft". :)
