There are the following reasons\nwhy the Modelica Association changes from Modelica License 1.1 to this\nnew license text (note, the text below is not a legal interpretation of the\nModelica License 2. In case of a conflict, the language of the license shall prevail):\n</p>\n\n<ol>\n<li> The rights of licensor and licensee are much more clearly defined. For example:\n         <ul>\n         <li> The licensed work (Original Work) can be used in unmodified form in\n                  open source and commercial software (the licensee cannot change the\n                  license and the work must be provided without fees)</li>\n         <li> If a model component is copied out of a Modelica package under\n                  Modelica License 2 and is modified in order to adapt it to the needs\n                  of the modeler, then the result can be licensed under any license\n                  (including a commercial license).</li>\n         <li> It is practically not possible to change the license of a\n                  Modelica package under Modelica License 2 to another license, i.e., a\n                  licensee cannot change the license by adding material or changing classes,\n                  so the work must remain under Modelica License 2 (to be more precise,\n                  if the licensee makes modifications to the Original Work \"which represents,\n                  as a whole, an original work of authorship\", he/she can change the license\n                  to another license. However, for a Modelica package this would\n                  require a lot of changes which is usually unrealistic).</li>\n         <li> If an executable is constructed using a Modelica package under\n                  Modelica License 2, then this executable can be licensed under any\n                  license (including a commercial license).</li>\n         </ul>\n         We hope that this compromise between open source contributors, commercial\n         Modelica environments and Modelica users will motivate even more people to\n         provide their Modelica packages freely under the Modelica License 2.<br><br></li>\n<li> There are several new provisions that shall make law suites against licensors and licensees more unlikely (so the small risk is further reduced).</li>\n</ol>\n\n<p><br>\nThe following <font color=\"blue\"><strong>new components</strong></font> have been added\nto <font color=\"blue\"><strong>existing</strong></font> libraries:\n</p>\n\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2 style=\"border-collapse:collapse;\">\n<tr><td colspan=\"2\"><strong>Electrical.Analog.Basic.</strong></td></tr>\n<tr><td>M_Transformer</td>\n          <td> Transformer, with the possibility to\n        choose the number of inductors.
