Third-party material
Section titled “Third-party material”| Material | Licence and distribution scope |
|---|---|
| Go runtime and standard library | BSD-style Go LICENSE and PATENTS, plus applicable vendored notices. Retain the notices supplied with the toolchain or linked distribution. |
| Caddy / CertMagic and their dependencies | Apache-2.0 for those projects; the separate plugin-included Caddy candidate package bundles their linked code and retains actual dependency licences/notices in DEPENDENCY-NOTICES.txt, plus Go notices. Public releases/downloads are not yet available. |
| Nginx / Certbot / Pebble / browser tools | Separately installed prerequisites with their own licences; not bundled in the production agent. |
| Mozilla public test authority and test key | MPL-2.0 covered devtools fixture. Test use only; never use it for production identity. |
The Mozilla fixture’s public key is intentionally publicly distributed test material. Its fixture notice and MPL terms remain beside it. Do not relabel that covered material MIT. The fixture root expires 5 February 2027.
A licence grants permissions to use the code. It does not establish a QWAC’s legal qualification, browser trust, a production support promise or public repository access. Current installation requires authorized repository access; public tags and download assets are unavailable.
