Overview of available licenses

You have to categorise your extension in one of the following license categories:

• Opensource
• Freeware
• Shareware
• Commercial

Licenses fields

In addition you may provide detailed license data with:

• License link as URL, which is shown as the word 'License' with the link in the extension presentation.
• License text: provide the whole text, which is also shown as the word 'License' with a link that goes to a page, showing the text
• Link to the source code

We gave the extension provider the freedom to provide a license, it is the task of the submitter to put in the value. We decided to not provide a list of possible licenses due to the fact that it will never be complete, and would cost too much maintainance work.
