From wikipedia:
The Eclipse Public License is designed to be a business-friendly free software license, and features weaker copyleft provisions than licenses such as the GNU General Public License (GPL).[7] The receiver of EPL-licensed programs can use, modify, copy and distribute the work and modified versions, in some cases being obligated to release their own changes.[8]
I am not an expert in licenses, but to me, it seems similar to the LGPL licenses.

Hm, it does have copyleft though. Is there an alternative library? I couldn't find EPL-2.0, only EPL-1.0 on tldr legal :/

It's not a library we're referencing, but mermaid is: https://github.com/ory/docs/blob/jonas-jonas/updateDocusaurus/package-lock.json#L17967-L17993

mermaid-js/mermaid#5043 okay seems like this is an issue, and we're gonna be stuck on specific mermaid versions.
I do think for docs, it would be fine to allow EPL, but for the Ory Network not. I'll try to find a mermaid version that passes license checks first.
