CPOL License
-
Hello, i want to use some of the great libraries and code snippets, which i found here on CodeProject on a commercial product. If they have a CPOL License, do i have to add a note on my about-dialog (well - i prefer to do that, but my customer doesn't want to have some "legal"-texts in the about-dialog)? Does some part of the license change, if i edit the library? Thank you! Kind regard

If you're redistributing the code then you need to include license information and a link to the original code, but if you're building an executable from the source code then no, you don't.
