    23 After several years of intense development, in November 2006, !VirtualBox was released as Open Source. Since !VirtualBox incorporates code from various libraries, there are a variety of licenses involved (for details, please refer to the [wiki:"User manual" user manual]). However, the bulk of the code that !InnoTek has written is released under the [wiki:"GPL" GNU General Public License (GPL)].
