<br>
I've read that : <a href="http://www.itk.org/ITK/project/licenseversion2.html" target="_blank">http://www.itk.org/ITK/project/licenseversion2.html</a><br>
<br>
But I have some questions about ITK 3.20 license :<br>
<br>
- can I use ITK 3.20 in a closed source commercial application ?<br>
- do I have to distribute ITK 3.20 sources with my application, or can I distribute only a binary form ?<br>
- if I distribute a binary form, can I make a static build, or like for LGPL license, do I have to link with dynamic library ?<br>
- what about the exceptions in the patented software directory ?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
