I am not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice. * NumPy is BSD-licensed, which means you can use NumPy in a commercial product as long as you include its license. * PyDAQmx is BSD-licensed as well. (You can find that information in their GitHub repository's README, https://github.com/clade/PyDAQmx) * Py Visa is MIT licensed (info on their GitHub: https://github.com/hgrecco/pyvisa/blob/master/LICENSE), which means you can also use it in your software as long as you include the license. For summaries of lots of licenses, you can look at tldrlegal.com. * BSD license: https://tldrlegal.com/license/bsd-3-clause-license-(revised) * MIT license: https://tldrlegal.com/license/mit-license It's never a bad idea to consult a lawyer. Since you work for GE, I would imagine there is an army of lawyers happy to answer this question at your disposal. Finding out how to talk to them might be the hard part. Cody
