Licence question

Postby Darakir » Wed Jan 20, 2016 2:44 am

Hi all!

I'd like to use cef to make a game. That game will be sold, and we will advertise it. Is that allowed?
According to Wikipedia, CEF uses the new BSD licence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSD_licen ... ense.22.29)
And one of the paragraphs seem to forbid that:

Neither the name of the <organization> nor the
names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products
derived from this software without specific prior written permission.


Or am I interpreting it wrong?

Here's a link to the CEF license file: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... ew-default

Are you planning to endorse or promote your game using the name Google or Chromium Embedded Framework? If not, then that clause shouldn't cause you any issues.
