Is there an actual difference there, or is this just semantics?

- newacctjhro 8y agoYou can't take the code as-is and turn it into proprietary code. You need to build a derivative work that contains the permissive code plus some other proprietary stuff.

As the code is not relicensed you have to follow the terms. Generally for example even BSD licensed code (other than BSD0) requires that you include attribution both in source code and binaries or documentation, so you need to keep a full list of licenses and authors and list them out in the docs.
