Permission to Modify MIFOS software
Dear Concerned,
We at Sahulat in India are trying to customize MIFOS software to suite our
financial institutions need.
Kindly educate us if we are required to take any permission or sign a
contract/agreement to modify/customize MIFOS software so as we do not
violate any IPR or international law. If so please do provide us the link
or document for the same.
Looking forward to hear from you.
Thank You

Hi Fasih,
We welcome new users and new contributors in the Fineract community! The
Fineract backend, and the Mifos community app are both licensed under
Apache. Some dependencies of the Mifos front end may not fully fulfill your
licensing requirements however. Fineract however can be customized without
need to contribute code back to the community.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Myrle Krantz
Committer, Apache Fineract
(I suggest you leave dev@community.apache.org off of any future replies
since they are responsible for more general stuff.)
