The Creative Commons license permits both the non-commercial and the commercial use of the framework on the condition that a backlink to the project homepage remains in the layout (see the next section).
Freelancers and web agencies, however, cannot always conform to the terms of use of the Creative Commons license, as customers seldom desire copyright notices of third party projects on their sites. In order to make the use of YAML possible in these cases, two license models for commercial use have been developed, alternative to the Creative Commons license. Both models are set up as single payments and include the use of any future releases.
YAML under Creative Commons License (CC-A 2.0)
The YAML framework is published under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 License, which permits both private and commercial use.
Condition: For the free use of the YAML framework, a backlink to the YAML homepage (http://www.yaml.de) in a suitable place (e.g.: footer of the website or in the imprint) is required.
In general I would be pleased to get a short note when new YAML-based projects are released.
