Not all Open Source licenses are the same. Some of them obligate the software supplier to grant patent licenses to users and developers of the software. Other licenses oblige the developer that uses the licensed product or library to offer the source code of this product or library under the same terms. Others simply give away the code, with no warranty of any kind or any concerns.
This article highlights the main differences between the most used Open Source licenses from the perspective of a software user and of a software developer. First we need to speak about the specific properties that define Open Source software.

Crytek has introduced CryEngine V during GDC, the Game Developers Conference which is being held this week in San Francisco. The graphic engine behind very popular gaming titles, such as Crysis or Ryse: Son of Rome has been updated featuring an important innovation: a new business model.
