Dietmar Maurer pointed out in another post that Proxmox VE is licensed
under GPL/AGPL. I got the above information here:
http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Open_Source
So that wiki page should probably be fixed to correctly list the licenses
and perhaps explain a little about dual licensing and what it means.
I'm happy to make the change on the wiki. My account is currently
pending.
The GPL and AGPL are both FSF an OSI approved licenses.
In an earlier email I referred to Proxmox VE simply as 'Proxmox', sorry.
Cheers,
Rob
