Incompatible LicensesOpen Source software is distributed under a variety of licenses each of which usually permits licensee to distribute and modify the software, provided that the licensee complies with specified terms and conditions. In some cases, one license agreement may contain terms and conditions which can not simultaneously be satisfied with the terms and conditions of another. This makes it impossible to legally combine or distribute copyrighted-elements of the two (or more) differently licensed works into a single work. In such cases, the licenses are described as being "incompatible licenses" On the other hand, when it is possible to simultaneously comply with terms and conditions of two (or more) licenses, and thus it is legally permissible to combine copyrighted-elements of two (or more) differently licensed works, the licenses are said to be "compatible licenses".
