What you're trying to say is that it isn't *restrictively* licensed.

(If a piece of software isn't licensed at all - if, say, there turns
out to be a crippling flaw in its legal verbiage - that doesn't mean
anybody can rip it off without comeback; it means that nobody is
entitled to use it.  I know what you mean; but it's a point worth
keeping clear.)
