The compiler itself is released under the strongly copyleft Open Software License version 3.0 whereby any derivative work must be afforded the same rights (source code etc) as the original work, while the run-time and library components, along with all demo programs, are released under it’s much more permissive companion the Academic Free License version 3.0 which is non-copyleft and allows use of those items in commercial closed source proprietary applications.
I am still open to a bit of discussion, criticism and ridicule to this...

Now that i think of it, the Redy project has a similar situation: redylib is a library but RedyCode and other applications using redylib are programs. Perhaps they should have difference licenses.
I am considering releasing redylib under the The BSD 2-Clause License. What do you think?
