Quoting from the url: 2.Only non-commercial, not-for-profit use of this software is permitted. No part of this software may be incorporated into a commercial product without the written consent of the authors (Vaughn Betz, Alexander (Sandy) Marquardt and Jonathan Rose). Similarly, use of this software to assist in the development of new commercial FPGA architectures is prohibited, unless the written consent of the authors is obtained. I would say "use of this software" includes targeting a FPGA, the hardware license is just another term. > > > On 2/11/08, Vinicius Santos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Feb 7, 2008 9:40 AM, Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > This is purely academic, not targeting a real architecture, but still... > > > probably a very useful starting point if anybody is seriously > > > considering pursuing open source FPGA implementation tools. > > > > > > > > > VPR 5.0: Modernized FPGA Architecture, Design and CAD > > > > > > Jason Luu, Peter Jamieson, Ian Kuon, Jonathan Rose > > > > > [snip] > > > > Does this mean that VPR 5.0 will have licensing terms different from > > what is stated in: > > http://www.eecg.toronto.edu/~vaughn/vpr/terms.html ?
