# Categorization question
Is there a distinction to be made between these cases?
* licenses that are not open source licenses but that state (in the license
text somewhere) that they automatically convert / automatically permit use
and redistribution subject to a specified open source license after a period
of time
* publicly announced practices of manually relicensing old codebase snapshots
on a particular schedule, which depend on a person at the company explicitly
making a delayed open source release
# Sources / Acknowledgements
* Simon Phipps
