Adamson emphasizes that CITI's Linux modifications will be open source, and that all CITI code derived from work done under the GNU General Public License (GPL) will be released under the GPL. Otherwise, he says, code produced at the University of Michigan is usually released under a Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD)-like license, which, unlike the GPL, doesn't require that modified and redistributed code be issued under the same license agreement as the original.
