Downloads
Sticker is available either in self-installer packages or in binary and source ZIP archives (most people will want the installer). Windows users have the additional option of a native Windows version which is smaller and does not need a Java runtime. The Unix ZIP archives follow Unix path conventions.
License
The source code for Sticker 3 is available under the terms of the Mozilla Public License, however an elvin router license is required for commercial use of Elvin. The source code for the previous major release (Sticker 2) is available under the slightly more restrictive GNU Public License.
