NOTES WRITTEN BY SOFTETHER CORPORATION
Note for users of non-Windows version of PacketiX VPN: The enumerated bundle of License Agreements above are copies of original License Agreements of each library programs which PacketiX VPN uses. PacketiX VPN is not a delivered work from these libraries. PacketiX VPN is a separated work from the libraries, but it may call functions of the libraries (whether or not PacketiX VPN calls such functions are depended on the user's intention to link them or not on user's side computer). While some libraries indicate GPL or LGPL as a condition to re-distribute, PacketiX VPN is not license under GPL nor LGPL. Therefore, we took special care not to make PacketiX VPN become delivered works of any GPL or LGPL libraries. In order to achieve that, both PacketiX VPN and GPL/LGPL libraries are distributed with isolated forms (means that any program files of PacketiX VPN are not bound nor linked to any GPL/LGPL libraries). If a user of PacketiX VPN wants to link GPL/LGPL libraries by their own decisions, operations and responsibilities, he may do that on his computer. However, if a delivered work under copyright law is created as a result of such an operation, such a delivered work must not re-distributed to other people, because it may violate GPL/LGPL libraries' conditions.
Note for users of Windows version of PacketiX VPN: For technical reason, the above texts are exactly same as a file which is also contained on the non-Windows version of PacketiX VPN. Actually, the Windows version of PacketiX VPN has no relations to any GPL/LGPL libraries enumerated above.
SoftEther Corporation provides source codes of some GPL/LGPL/other libraries listed above on its web server. Anyone can download, use and re-distribute them under individual licenses which are contained on each archive file, available from the following URL:
