2 | various firmware files. These are separate programs that are | |

4 | separate licenses. | |

8 | 1) The QEMU emulator as a whole is released under the GNU General |

11 | 2) Parts of the QEMU emulator have specific licenses which are compatible | |
12 | with the GNU General Public License, version 2. Hence each source file | |
13 | contains its own licensing information. Source files with no licensing | |
14 | information are released under the GNU General Public License, version | |
15 | 2 or (at your option) any later version. | |
