From looking at their repo, it looks like standard BSD-3-Clause. They've been tagging all the files with license comments at the top as they go through identifying authors and making sure everything is re-licensed consistently.
- protomyth 11y agofrom their site "MAME is free. Its source code is free. Selling either is not allowed." Wonder how that works with the BSD-3-Clause?

- duskwuff 11y agoThat's referring to the old license. The "selling either is not allowed" part is going to go away under new licensing.
- schoen 11y agoI believe that's the old policy prior to the current relicensing effort.
- ekianjo 11y ago> Wonder how that works with the BSD-3-Clause? You can put whatever you want in your license. You can say it's based on GPL and add an non-commercial layer on it. You don't have to restrict yourself to licenses already written.
- gillianseed 11y agoI just made a quick browse of the commits and there's a lot of BSD-3 but also GPLv2, so I gather the full MAME project will be GPL licensed, but of course you can use the BSD-3 licensed code in non-GPL licensed projects.
