License — closegate
====================

The closegate maintainer has not yet finalized the OSS license for this
project. The intended license is **Apache 2.0**, pending review of:

- The implications for adopters who build proprietary workflows on top
  (Apache 2.0's patent grant is the right shape for this).
- Any restrictions needed around the project name + brand (a separate
  trademark policy may be published alongside the license).

Until the license is formally set, **closegate is source-available for
evaluation, pilot, and contribution review only**. Production deployment
should wait for the formal license to ship — currently scheduled for the
v1.0 release per [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md).

If you have a specific deployment that needs a different license posture
sooner, please open an issue describing the use case. We'll prioritize
finalization if there's real demand.
