Licence

Open UXVirtual opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

Are there other licencing options available other than Amazon's licence?

I'm interested in making modifications to the code the tool generates to add new features such as an inventory system and useable items.

We’re only making the project available under the Amazon Software License (https://github.com/alexa/interactive-adventure-game-tool/blob/master/LICENSE.txt) which allows you to modify and redistribute the project to add new features. The main restrictions are that you redistribute the project under the Amazon Software License and that that you limit the use of the project and any derivative work to uses with Amazon services or applications, including the Alexa voice service.

No problem - from looking at the source code it seems like it's pretty tightly integrated into the Amazon ecosystem anyway. Would adding the option to work on node running on an EC2 instance with a different database system hosted on AWS still be within the terms of the licence?

We don't have any concerns with that type of modification.
