Can you confirm?
Yes, quoting some words from the people we asked internally: (the page referred to is https://developer.arm.com/Tools%20and%20Software/Fixed%20Virtual%20Platforms): "All the FVPs referenced on this page that you are interested in are licensed under lightweight Eco System EULA that has no restrictions on the redistribution.” "So, yes, we can ship container images containing the FVP and the license on the FVP will remain as is.” "No issues with redistributing the model package in a Docker container, as long as the EULA in included." > It would also be good that the commit message indicates whether there is any > implicit license agreement from Xen Project (or any user that decide to use > our scripts). I think it is the “END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR ARM ECOSYSTEM MODELS”? Kind regards, Henry > > Cheers, > > -- > Julien Grall
