Licensing and independently developed plugins

The first-party source code in moleditpy_reaction_sketcher_plugin is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 3 or (at your option) any later version (LGPL-3.0-or-later). LICENSE contains LGPLv3’s additional permissions; COPYING contains the incorporated GPLv3 terms. Earlier releases retain their original licenses.

Copyright: Hiromichi Yokoyama / HiroYokoyama and the contributors identified in the existing copyright notices. Retain those notices, LICENSE, COPYING, and this document when redistributing the covered source or binaries.

Modifications to the covered code remain subject to the LGPL. Distribution terms must allow users to modify the covered components and reverse engineer for debugging their modifications as required by LGPLv3. Provide corresponding source and allow modification or replacement of covered libraries when distributing a combined binary, as required by the license.

Independently developed plugins that use MoleditPy’s documented plugin API may be distributed under any license, including proprietary licenses, under the main application’s copyright-holder permission. Their authors choose their licenses and retain their copyright. This repository’s LGPL license does not change the licenses of other independently developed plugins, copied MoleditPy code, or third-party components.

Third-party libraries, executables, models, and data retain their own licenses and obligations. Preserve their notices and comply with the terms of the versions actually redistributed, including native and transitive dependencies. Running a program in a separate process does not by itself establish license compatibility.
