📝 Licensing Overview — RTT Micro Core
RTT Micro Core is released under a transparent, contributor‑friendly licensing model designed to support research, education, and responsible implementation.
The goal is simple: enable broad use while preserving the integrity, lineage, and coherence of the RTT framework.
🔐 Core Principles#
Micro Core licensing follows four guiding principles:
- Clarity — users should always know what they can and cannot do.
- Integrity — the RTT substrate must remain coherent and unaltered.
- Openness — research, teaching, and non‑commercial exploration are encouraged.
- Stewardship — commercial or derivative use requires explicit agreement.
These principles ensure that Micro Core remains accessible while protecting the framework’s lineage.

💼 Commercial & Derivative Use#
Commercial use, integration into products, or creation of derivative frameworks requires:
- a per‑contract agreement
- explicit licensing terms
- alignment with RTT stewardship principles
This ensures that Micro Core remains coherent across implementations.

🔗 Relationship to RTT Licensing#
Micro Core inherits the broader RTT licensing model:
- RTT Core governs the full substrate
- RTT‑Inside governs implementation and integration
- Domain Packs follow per‑pack licensing
Together, these layers ensure that Micro Core remains structurally consistent, lineage‑preserving, and safely extensible across research, teaching, and commercial environments.
