## Legend
<p>Open source licenses grant to the public <b>permissions</b> (<span class="license-permissions"><span class="license-sprite"></span></span>) to do things with licensed works copyright or other "intellectual property" laws might otherwise disallow.</p>
<p>Most open source licenses' grants of permissions are subject to compliance with <b>conditions</b> (<span class="license-conditions"><span class="license-sprite"></span></span>).</p>
<p>Most open source licenses also have <b>limitations</b> (<span class="license-limitations"><span class="license-sprite"></span></span>) that usually disclaim warranty and liability and sometimes expressly exclude patent or trademark from licenses' grants.</p>
