The license is the so-called "3-clause BSD" or "modified BSD" license. You can find a copy at the head of every file. It does not prohibit you from using libevent in commercial projects. All you need to do is follow the terms of the license: basically, this means that you need to include the license and it its accompanying disclaimer as a part of all source and binary distributions, and all documentation accompanying binary distributions. (I am not a lawyer; the summary above is not a substitute for reading the terms of the license.) yrs, -- Nick Mathewson
