Is the whole project licensed under BSD 3-clause, or some parts are just shared-source? (like Atomix.Core, Atomix.Shell, etc.)

Please make this clear. Thanks.

whole project is licensed under "BSD 3-clause" You can find "complete project license" here

@amaneureka In that case, it is probably advisable to change the license headers in your source files. Currently each source file I checked contains the following comment on top:

LICENSE: Copyright (C) Atomix Development, Inc - All Rights Reserved Unauthorized copying of this file, via any medium is strictly prohibited Proprietary and confidential.

This implies strong copyright instead the quite liberal BSD-license. In a strict sense, the header implies much stricter rules and would probably supersede the license file in the repository root.
