    33The Aperture project is published with the following licensing policy. 
    44 
    5 The core parts (APIs and closely associated classes) are free to use and to extend. They should be as open as possible so that anyone can include Aperture in a project, commercial, closed source or not. Especially, people should not be required (or even think they are required) to disclose their own implementations to disclose their proprietary document formats, data sources, etc.

    77Besides a framework, Aperture contains a number of concrete adapter and extractor implementations. These include much work and bugfixing and are therefore licensed under a '''reciprocal''' license, meaning that changes to this code, such as functional extentions, bugfixes, performance improvements, that are redistributed in one way or another way, have to be made available to the community under the same open source license.
