[En-Nut-Discussion] Where does the LICENSE_ST_GUIDANCE_ONLY require from

[Uwe Bonnes]

Hello Harald,

the STM32 tree contains some files with with the clause
"* Licensed under MCD-ST Liberty SW License Agreement V2, (the "License");"
So I understand the requirement in th configurator/config file to accept
that license with
LICENSE_MCD_ST_LIBERTY = ""

However I see no STM clause which could cause the requirement for the
LICENSE_ST_GUIDANCE_ONLY = ""
acceptance, beside the rather general clause in the file
 * THE PRESENT FIRMWARE WHICH IS FOR GUIDANCE ONLY AIMS AT PROVIDING CUSTOMERS
 * WITH CODING INFORMATION REGARDING THEIR PRODUCTS IN ORDER FOR THEM TO SAVE
 * TIME. AS A RESULT, STMICROELECTRONICS SHALL NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY
 * DIRECT, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING
 * FROM THE CONTENT OF SUCH FIRMWARE AND/OR THE USE MADE BY CUSTOMERS OF THE
 * CODING INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IN CONNECTION WITH THEIR PRODUCTS.
 *

It this what causes the
LICENSE_ST_GUIDANCE_ONLY = ""
requirement? And if yes, is it really needed?

Bye
