Sw redistribution, including fantom and labview

Hi, 
I'm working on a communication library for LISP interpreters - NXT mindstorms and I would like to share it.

In particular it includes "fantom/iNXT.h", "fantom/iNXTIterator.h" and "fantom/tStatus.h"

 

Does the license allows it redestribution of the compiled binary? Under which license can I release my softeware? Sorry but I can't understand it.

 

 

I ask this question because many of my collaborators have only a limited informatics knowledge and asking them to download the sdk by themself, use Visual Studio and compile it is really out of their league, so I would like to just upload the library and the source code (eventually including the sdk, or a link to the sdk, so that they can recompile it if they want, but they're not forced to do it).


I hope I have been clear
Thank you very much

Hi, thank you very much, I just don't understand the following:

 


You may only use the Software as follows:
(i) use the Software on one single computer;
(ii) use the Software on a second computer so long as the first
and second computers are not used simultaneously;


 


How can I redestribute it if I am not allowed to use it on more than one simultaneously and up to 2 computers? What does the single computer apply to and what does the redestribution apply to?

Thank you very much

You can't.

 

YOU MAY NOT:

ok, I won't but, so why "you may" + "use the Software to develop and distribute non-commercial applications...", if I can't distribute it.

It's really really obscure to me
