Viewing license text

You can view the text of custom and KnowledgeBase licenses.

Note: For KnowledgeBase licenses, if the license is one that is modified for individual components (like the BSD or MIT license), then the template license text is shown here. However, when viewing the license text in the context of a component (such as viewing the component's license in a BOM), the actual license text for that component is shown.
