HydraCom may be bundled up with for instance terminal or BBS packages,
even commercial ones, provided the buyer/user is clearly informed
about the fact that Hydra and HydraCom are free, not owned by the
distributor/retailer in question, and is not included in any possible
charge regarding the rest of the package. This documentation must also

In all cases, the author of HydraCom must be given credit in any
informational screens and literature that contain such information.
The Hydra/HydraCom sourcecode may also be freely used and integrated
into other software or library, provided this is clearly stated in any
informational screens and literature pertaining to this program, and
credit is given to the original author. If the sourcecode of that
program or library is released or otherwise published, the notices
present at the top of every Hydra/HydraCom source file must be
retained in their original unmodified form.
In addition to the above license, everyone using any part of the
sourcecode, programs or files is fully bound by the general license of
the Hydra protocol as present in the Hydra protocol description
document. For easy reference, the paragraph in question is reprinted
below.
Any use of, or operation on (including copying/distributing) any of
the above mentioned files implies full and unconditional acceptance of
this license and disclaimer.
HYDRA PROTOCOL LICENSE
You are granted a license to implement the HYDRA file transfer
protocol, HYDRA hereafter, in your own programs and/or use the sample
source code and adapt these to your particular situation and needs;
subject to the following conditions:
- You must refer to it as the HYDRA file transfer protocol, and you
must give credit to the authors of HYDRA in any information
screens or literature pertaining to your programs that contains
other such information (credits, your own copyrights, etc.).
- HYDRA will always remain backwards compatible with previous
revisions. HYDRA allows for expansion of its features without
interfering with previous revisions. It is, however, important
that different people do not expand the protocol in different
directions. We therefore ask you to contact us if you have any
needs/ideas regarding HYDRA, so development can be synchronized
and beneficial to all.
- If your implementation cannot converse with past or future
revisions as supplied by us, then you must refer to it as "HYDRA
derived", or as "a variation of HYDRA", or words to that effect.
