LICENSE="AGPL-3"

>Starting with version 3.7, POV-Ray is released under the AGPL3 (or later) license and thus is Free Software according to the FSF definition.


README.md:
License
--------------------------------------

The source for POV-Ray v3.7 is licensed under the AGPL3. The documentation is under the
Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 license, and support files such

Documentation
--------------------------------------

When built and installed via the means provided in the source tree, all versions
of POV-Ray come with documentation. For the Unix build, this is in the form of a
manpage giving basic usage, and full HTML-based documentation. For the Windows
version, there is a HtmlHelp (.CHM) file provided.

scancode-toolkit doesn't find anything actually AGPLv3-only and so it's all AGPLv3-or-later (output file is too large to attach).


As for the documentation, I can't find the mentioned "Unix" documentation man pages, but the windows documentation is under: distribution/platform-specific/windows/Help/povray37.chm

As far as I can tell, that file is under the proprietary "Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-ShareAlike 2.5" license.


Therefore, it should be: LICENSE="AGPL-3+ CC-BY-SA-3.0 CC-BY-NC-SA-2.5"
