Team, league, conference and news publisher names and logos, and the circuit maps race mode draws, belong to their owners. They aren't ours to license, and no open-source license covers them.
| Software | Where it's used | License |

| React, React DOM, scheduler | The web app | MIT |
| React Router, cookie, set-cookie-parser | The web app | MIT |
| Tailwind CSS | The web app's styles | MIT |

The web app uses Barlow Condensed, Inter and JetBrains Mono, all under the SIL Open Font License 1.1. LED panels use {{name}}'s own pixel font.
The complete source code of {{name}}'s own software - the LED panel's software, the web app, the Android app and the iPhone widget script - is published with every update at {{app}}/downloads/gridticker-source.tar.gz. The panel's own software is also on its SD card in readable form.
For the rest of the software on an LED panel that's licensed under the GNU General Public License or the GNU Lesser General Public License - Raspberry Pi OS and the LED driver - this is our written offer. For at least three years after we last ship a panel model, and for as long as we offer support or spare parts for it, we'll give anyone who asks a complete, machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code: as a download at no charge, or on a physical medium for no more than it costs us to make and send it. Write to {{supportEmail}} and tell us the version in ticker-version.txt on the panel's SD card.
