END OF LICENSE. The following is intended to describe the essential
differences between the Academic Free License (AFL) version 1.0 and
other open source licenses:

The Academic Free License is similar to the BSD, MIT, UoI/NCSA and
Apache licenses in many respects but it is intended to solve a few
problems with those licenses.
  * The AFL is written so as to make it clear what software is being
    licensed (by the inclusion of a statement following the copyright
    notice in the software). This way, the license functions better
    than a template license. The BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses apply
    to unidentified software.
  * The AFL contains a complete copyright grant to the software. The
    BSD and Apache licenses are vague and incomplete in that respect.
  * The AFL contains a complete patent grant to the software. The BSD,
    MIT, UoI/NCSA and Apache licenses rely on an implied patent
    license and contain no explicit patent grant.
  * The AFL makes it clear that no trademark rights are granted to the
    licensor's trademarks. The Apache license contains such a
    provision, but the BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not.
  * The AFL includes the warranty by the licensor that it either owns
    the copyright or that it is distributing the software under a
    license. None of the other licenses contain that warranty. All
    other warranties are disclaimed, as is the case for the other
    licenses.
  * The AFL is itself copyrighted (with the right granted to copy and
    distribute without modification). This ensures that the owner of
    the copyright to the license will control changes. The Apache
    license contains a copyright notice, but the BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA
    licenses do not.
