So.. Google for GNU General Public License? (https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html ?) And of course any other license you may encounter within software source code.

I also asked my question through i...@openvas.org<mailto:i...@openvas.org>, but no response there either. 1) Basically, I got an automated reply back, in which the following was stated as part of the openvas FAQ: "The community contributions of Greenbone (like the Greenbone Community Edition or the actual source code) are free of charge. You do have to accept the conditions of the GNU General Public License and of some other Open Source licenses. " So, which licenses are these or where could I find this information? 2) the website at www.openvas.org<http://www.openvas.org/> clearly states: " If you encounter problems with our infrastructure, have legal questions etc, then please contact: i...@openvas.org<mailto:i...@openvas.org>." => I think my questions are definitely legal/commercial of nature, but well, I'm going to ask here again too. 3) the website at www.openvas.org<http://www.openvas.org/> also states: " All OpenVAS products are Free Software. Most components are licensed under the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL). " but I can't find any information on the website again. Stating "most components" doesn't say a lot. Therefore, my question: is it allowed to embed the greenbone community edition in other commercial offerings, and if so, are there any restrictions/conditions? Or even just a detailed overview of what components fall under which license? "Most components", well... Thank you in advance for your feedback!

If so, what are these restrictions? Or is there someone else, maybe from openvas itself, who could answer this if this isn't the correct location for this question? Thanks in advance for any feedback!
