Notes

The project site calls QuickFIX free and open source. The repository uses the QuickFIX Software License 1.0, which requires an acknowledgement in documentation and restricts use of the QuickFIX name. That text is not recorded here as an OSI-approved open-source licence, so the entry is source-available. Operating systems were not listed.
