# FAQ
|
||
|
||
## Under which licence is ALYS?
|
||
ALYS is subject to multiple licences depending on its components.
|
||
|
||
ALYS’ configuration files are under free licence
|
||
[`GPL-3.0`](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.fr.html).
|
||
|
||
Documentation files are under free licence
|
||
[`FDL-1.3`](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-1.3.fr.html).
|
||
|
||
The audio files are under a licence specific to ALYS, the restrictive
|
||
licence [`ALYS-1.0`](/en/ALYS-1.0.md). This licence can be summarised
|
||
as follows:
|
||
- Any person is free to access ALYS audio files without restriction;
|
||
- Any person has the right to use the ALYS audio files for vocal
|
||
synthesis within the framework in which this vocal synthesis occurs
|
||
via the Alter/Ego, UTAU, or OpenUTAU software;
|
||
- Any person is free to modify ALYS audio files within the framework
|
||
described above;
|
||
- Anyone is free to redistribute the audio files, provided they remain
|
||
under the same licence;
|
||
- It is strictly forbidden to change the licence of the audio files or
|
||
to sell them.
|
||
|
||
The other components of ALYS (trademark, design, voice) are not
|
||
covered by the above licences but by other licences held by their
|
||
rightful owners.
|
||
|
||
## Can I redistribute ALYS?
|
||
Absolutely, as long as the files redistributed comply with their
|
||
respective licences.
|
||
|
||
Regarding its physical appearance and branding, as long as no
|
||
commercial use is made of it, there shouldn't be any problem either,
|
||
but it is strongly recommended that you contact the copyright holders
|
||
in case of doubt.
|
||
|
||
Redistribution of audio files for any use other than their intended
|
||
use as described by the ALYS-1.0 licence can only take place with
|
||
Poucet's express permission.
|
||
|
||
## Is ALYS maintained?
|
||
From a vocal library point of view, Lucien (the original ALYS
|
||
developer) no longer updates either ALYS4AE or ALYS4UTAU. Updates may
|
||
be proposed on the source file repositories to improve the vocal
|
||
libraries, but they will only be accepted at Lucien's discretion.
|
||
|
||
ALYS for DiffSinger is outside Lucien's domain. The team behind
|
||
DiffSinger, [UFR](https://utaufrance.com/), should be contacted
|
||
instead.
|
||
|
||
## Are there any plans for LEORA?
|
||
There are no plans for the moment. This depends, among other things,
|
||
on the will of the rights holders. Please avoid any unsolicited
|
||
communication with former VoxWave members regarding LEORA.
