In addition, it is recommended that literal code included in the BIP be available under the same license terms as the project it modifies, when that license is acceptable within a BIP. For example, literal code intended for Bitcoin Core would ideally be dual-licensed under the MIT license terms (listed below, as not recommended but acceptable) as well as one of the above with the rest of the BIP text.
