Subject: How is Dokan actually licensed?
The Google Code page of Dokan library tells me, that it is licensed
under LGPL.

The readme file tells, that it contains some parts licensed under LGPL
and MIT.

And when I lauch the installer I get the following quite disturbing
message:

> WARNING: This computer program is protected by copyright law and international
> treaties. Unauthorized duplication or distribution of this program, or any portion of
> it, may result in severe civil or criminal penalties, and will be prosecuted to the
> maximum extent possible under the law.

How can it be, that the program contains code licensed under LGPL and
at the same
time I'm not allowed to distribute any portion of the program?

Hello,

I have never noticed the message.
This message was automatically generated by Visual Studio. I removed
this message from the next Dokan installer.

Readme file of Dokan is right.
Dokan driver and dokan.dll is released under LGPL and others are MIT.
So you can redistribute the program freely.

Thanks,
Hiroki Asakawa

Thanks,

I thought, it might be some kind of bug like that.
