License template for the Historical Permission Notice and Disclaimer (X11R5 license)
The template automatically sets the following categories: HPND
Usage
{{HPND |1= |2= |copyright-notice= |no-nonendorsement= |related-entities= |no-short-warranty= |no-long-warranty= |monosyndeton-variant= |definite-article-variant= |no-of= |unspliced-variant= }}
This is a license which was used for X11 releases 1–5, Python versions 0.9.0–1.2 and Wayland versions up to 1.8.92, amongst other software. It is sometimes[1] called the "X11 license" or "MIT X11 license"; however, this is ambiguous with the X11R6 licence (MIT/Expat plus non-endorsement, called "X11 License" by the FSF) despite being a completely different wording.
The unambiguous name Historical Permission Notice and Disclaimer for X11R5 licenses was coined in 2002[2] and is used by both the OSI and the FSF.
