Nettle is distributed under the GNU General Public License. However,

most of the individual files are dual licensed under less restrictive

licenses like the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL), or are in

nettle that are GPL-only, you have the option to use the Nettle

library just as if it were licensed under the LGPL. To find the

current status of particular files, you have to read the copyright

notices at the top of the files.

   A list of the supported algorithms, their origins and licenses (from
