the GNU Lesser General Public License, version 3. This is the
executable built from code in racket/src/racket.

* The Racket-on-Chez executable includes code distributed under the
Apache version 2.0 license, in particular Chez Scheme.

is distributed under the Apache version 2.0 license. This runtime
system is built from code in racket/src/cs.
These distinctions apply to the `racket` executable, not to Racket
source code and documentation in this repository.
Except for Windows executables that are created with the "embed DLLs"
option, the runtime system remains separate as a shared library or
additional executable, which means that it is dynamically linked and
can be replaced with a modified variant by users.
See the file racket/src/LICENSE-LGPL.txt for the full text of the GNU
