Opera has recently changed its license for usage of Opera Dragonfly, from BSD to Apache 2.0. The Apache 2.0 license includes a patent policy promise that allows people to use Opera Dragonfly or Scope regardless of patents held by Opera Software or any other contributor. Opera's Scope protocol is used for communication between the Opera browser and Opera Dragonfly.
