The Erlang Public License is a computer software license, which was applied to some older Erlang programming language source code. It is a derivative work of the Mozilla Public License,[1] containing terms which differ from MPL, mainly in terms of jurisdiction. The license was constructed in accordance with the laws of Sweden.[citation needed]

Change of Apache License 2.0[edit]

On June 12, 2015, Ericsson announced at the Erlang User Conference 2015[2] that starting with the subsequent major release, Erlang/OTP 18.0,[3] Erlang/OTP source code would be released under terms of the Apache License 2.0.
