			A lincense manager written in C/C++ for Windows and Linux environments.
			A copy protection, licensing software written in C/C++ for Windows and Linux.

			It allows to protect the software you develop from unauthorized copies,
			limit the usage in time, to a specific set of machines, or prevent the usage in
			virtualized environments. It is an Open License Manager that helps to keep your
			software closed ;-)

			## License
			The project is donated to the community. It comes with a very large freedom of use for everyone, and it will always be.
			It uses a [BSD 3 clauses](https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause) licensing schema, that allows the inclusion in commercial software.


			## Project Structure

			The software is made by 2 main sub-components:
			* a C library with no (or minimal) external dependencies (the part you have to integrate in your software).

			* a license [backoffice](../../issues/7) in php (in order to handle multiple licenses).
			* a license debugger to be sent to the final customer when there are licensing problems.
			* a [log decriptor](../../issues/8) in order to decrypt logs generated by the license system.
			* a [log descriptor](../../issues/8) in order to decrypt logs generated by the license system.

			You can notice 2 more sub-projects:
			* bootstrap: allows to generate private keys and modify the library on the fly after the downloading.
			* testing : runs the tests (and publish the results on cdash)
