### v2.14.13 (2015-11-25):

#### THE npm CLI !== THE npm REGISTRY !== npm, INC.

npm-the-CLI is licensed under the terms of the [Artistic License
2.0](https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/8d79c1a39dae908f27eaa37ff6b23515d505ef29/LICENSE),
which is a liberal open-source license that allows you to take this code and do
pretty much whatever you like with it (that is, of course, not legal language,
and if you're doing anything with npm that leaves you in doubt about your legal
rights, please seek the review of qualified counsel, which is to say, not
members of the CLI team, none of whom have passed the bar, to my knowledge). At
the same time the primary registry the CLI uses when looking up and downloading
packages is a commercial service run by npm, Inc., and it has its own [Terms of
Use](https://www.npmjs.com/policies/terms).

Aside from clarifying the terms of use (and trying to make sure they're more
widely known), the only recent changes to npm's licenses have been making the
split between the CLI and registry clearer. You are still free to do whatever
you like with the CLI's source, and you are free to view, download, and publish
packages to and from `registry.npmjs.org`, but now the existing terms under
which you can do so are more clearly documented. Aside from the two commits
below, see also [the release notes for
`[email protected]`](https://github.com/npm/npm/releases/tag/v2.14.11), which is where
the split between the CLI's code and the terms of use for the registry was
first made more clear.

* [`1f3e936`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/1f3e936aab6840667948ef281e0c3621df365131)
[#10532](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/10532) Clarify that
`registry.npmjs.org` is the default, but that you're free to use the npm CLI
with whatever registry you wish. ([@kemitchell](https://github.com/kemitchell))
* [`6733539`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/6733539eeb9b32a5f2d1a6aa797987e2252fa760)
[#10532](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/10532) Having semi-duplicate
release information in `README.md` was confusing and potentially inaccurate,
so remove it. ([@kemitchell](https://github.com/kemitchell))

#### EASE UP ON WINDOWS BASH USERS

It turns out that a fair number of us use bash on Windows (through MINGW or
bundled with Git, plz – Cygwin is still a bridge too far, for both npm and
Node.js). [@jakub-g](https://github.com/jakub-g) did us all a favor and relaxed
the check for npm completion to support MINGW bash. Thanks, Jakub!

* [`460cc09`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/460cc0950fd6a005c4e5c4f85af807814209b2bb)
[#10156](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/10156) completion: enable on
Windows in git bash ([@jakub-g](https://github.com/jakub-g))

#### MAKE NODE-GYP A LITTLE BLUER

* [`333e118`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/333e1181082842c21edc62f0ce515928424dff1f)
`[email protected]`: Support AIX, use `which` to find Python, updated to a newer
version of `gyp`, and more! ([@bnoordhuis](https://github.com/bnoordhuis))

#### WE LIKE SPDX AND ALL BUT IT'S NOT ACTUALLY A DIRECT DEP, SORRY

* [`1f4b4bb`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/1f4b4bbdf8758281beecb7eaf75d05a6c4a77c15)
Removed `spdx` as a direct npm dependency, since we don't actually need it at
that level, and updated subdeps for `validate-npm-package-license`
([@othiym23](https://github.com/othiym23))

#### A BOUNTEOUS THANKSGIVING CORNUCOPIA OF DOC TWEAKS

These are great! Keep them coming! Sorry for letting them pile up so deep,
everybody. Also, a belated Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends, and a happy
Thanksgiving to all our friends in the USA.

* [`6101f44`](https://github.com/npm/npm/commit/6101f44737645d9379c3396fae81bbc4d94e1f7e)
