Metavid Source

Metavid make use of many open source libraries and software which are not part of this license, for details visit the credits page. Libraries included in the metavid code are used under their original license. The license should be visible in the header of these included files.

All of code in the code repository which is not an existing open source library is licensed under the AGPL. The AGPL is nearly identical to the GPL with the exception that code performance requires the link to the source. Code contributors should be aware that the code may be re-licensed to the GPL3 if network services are counted as software distribution in the GPL3.

The full text of the AGPL is available here, information about the philosophical reasons for requiring code performance transparency is discussed here.

The MediaWiki integration portion of the metavid project is licensed under the GPL2 (like mediawiki)

The metavid code is hosted on ucsc slugforge, it can be checked out from the public SVN repository: available here.
