Reused libraries

This is a list of open-source libraries and code fragments used by XLE (and also their associated licenses). There's a lot of surface area in XLE, and many dependencies on other open-source libraries. So I'll collect all of the license together on this page to make it easier to manage.

XLE will prefer to use libraries with permissive licenses (like MIT, BSD, etc) wherever possible. There are currently no dependencies on GPL'ed libraries. The goal here is to avoid potential licensing incompatibilities with client projects that want to use XLE.
