#Licensing

We are not your lawyer, but here is a simple explanation of the intention behind the Hare licenses.

The Hare standard library is available under the terms of the Mozilla Public License (MPL). You can freely link to the standard library with software distributed under any license, but if you modify the standard library, you must release your derivative works under the MPL as well.

The executables - the build driver, hare, and the compiler, harec, are available under the GPL 3.0 (but not any later version). This permits free use and redistribution, but any changes to it require you to share the derivative work under the terms of the GPL. It is stricter than the MPL; if you link to the compiler or build driver code from a third-party program it will require you to release the third-party code as well.

In short, you can write programs in Hare which use the standard library and distribute those programs under any terms you wish. However, if you modify Hare itself, you must share your changes as well.
