libjpeg-turbo Licenses
----------------------
libjpeg-turbo is covered by three compatible BSD-style open source licenses:
-- The IJG (Independent JPEG Group) License, which is listed in README
This license applies to the libjpeg API library and associated programs
(any code inherited from libjpeg, and any modifications to that code.)
-- The Modified (3-clause) BSD License, which is listed in turbojpeg.c
This license covers the TurboJPEG API library and associated programs.
-- The zlib License, which is listed in simd/jsimdext.inc
This license is a subset of the other two, and it covers the libjpeg-turbo
SIMD extensions.
