  • With this license in particular, nothing. The license makes it so that if you modify the source code of a file you have to release that source code upon distribution. However, if you don’t modify the source code, you don’t have to release it. This allows it to be packaged with proprietary code, as opposed to the hard copyleft licenses, which are “viral”.

    If DXVK were to ship with the GPL license, anything that touches it, even beyond a file level, would have to be open source upon distribution. This would probably kill the project, so that’s why I think MPL is a better option.
