Matt, Thank you for explanation. Here is the case I am trying to understand. We have plugins that are distributed to our clients and are also prepared for commercial distribution. One of them - flex2ant - converts development settings into ant/maven build file among other things. We would like to give an option of Ant tasks for compiler stage. If I read your explanation correctly : 1.we may not distribute jar file 2. we may build somewhat extended jar file ourselves and distribute that within our plugins. We will not distribute SDK or shell compiler.

Since the SDK cannot be redistributed, there isn't much value in redistributing the tasks on their own. #2 is actually incorrect. You are allowed to modify the source as long as you retain copyright notices, the phrasing is in the main section of 2, in the (ii) section. 2.1 states that modification/reverse engineering that doesn't fall under 2 (ii) is not allowed.

Few questions on the license that is unusual for Labs section: 1. no redistribution rights which makes it difficult to be used within consulting projects or products - very strange for such a generic task that will most benefit SDK/command line users 2. No reverse engineering clause on the product that comes with complete source Is there a chance that the wrong license file was included?
