Version 3.0 of this program was released under the GNU GPL 2.0 license.[4]
Version 3.2.6 released in December 2017.
Licensing issues
At its inception, SQL-Ledger used the GNU GPL 2.0 license. In 2005, Debian legal questioned whether or not the program belonged in Free or Non-Free, due to wording in the Terms and Conditions notice in the tarball.[5] In late 2006, LedgerSMB was created as a secure fork of SQL-Ledger. In early 2007, SQL-Ledger 2.8 was released under the 'SQL-Ledger Open Source License,[6] a license which retroactively revokes all previous licenses under which the covered code had been released.[7] That version also contained an "anti-forking" clause. However, within a month, SQL-Ledger 2.8.1 was released, under the GNU GPL 2.0.
