License Information

There are many open source licenses available, under which you can publish your JCrypTool plug-in. However, all our plug-ins are published under the Eclipse Public License (EPL) Version 1.0. Again, you are absolutely free to choose another license. But in case you intend to integrate your plug-in in one of our GitHub projects, you'll have to use the EPL.

Conditions

In order to use the EPL correctly, you have to integrate an EPL hint in all your Java classes. We are using the following disclaimer (feel free to copy this information block):
