    1                                The "Artistic License"

    3                                       Preamble
    4 
    5         The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a
    6         Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some
    7         semblance of artistic control over the development of the package,
    8         while giving the users of the package the right to use and
    9         distribute the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the
   10         right to make reasonable modifications.
   11 
   12         Definitions:
   13 
   14            * "Package" refers to the collection of files (in this
   15              directory and its subdirectories) distributed by the
   16              Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files
   17              created through textual modification.
   18 
   19            * "Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been
   20              modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes of
   21              the Copyright Holder.
   22 
   23            * "Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or
   24              copyrights for the package.
   25 
   26            * "You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
   27              this Package.
   28 
   29            * "Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the
   30              basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people
   31              involved, and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to
   32              the Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at
   33              large as a market that must bear the fee.)
   34 
   35            * "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item
   36              itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item.
   37              It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
   38              under the same conditions they received it.
   39 
   40         1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of
   41         the Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided
   42         that you duplicate all of the original copyright notices and
   43         associated disclaimers.
   44 
   45         2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other
   46         modifications derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright
   47         Holder. A Package modified in such a way shall still be considered
   48         the Standard Version.
   49 
   50         3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way,
   51         provided that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file
   52         stating how and when you changed that file, and provided that you do
   53         at least ONE of the following:
   54 
   55              a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or
   56              otherwise make them Freely Available, such as by posting
   57              said modifications to Usenet or an equivalent medium, or
   58              placing the modifications on a major archive site such as
   59              ftp.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright Holder to include
   60              your modifications in the Standard Version of the Package.
   61 
   62              b) use the modified Package only within your corporation
   63              or organization.
   64 
   65              c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not
   66              conflict with standard executables, which must also be
   67              provided, and provide a separate manual page for each
   68              non-standard executable that clearly documents how it
   69              differs from the Standard Version.
   70 
   71              d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
   72              Holder.
   73 
   74         4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
   75         executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:
   76 
   77              a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and
   78              library files, together with instructions (in the manual
   79              page or equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version.
   80 
   81              b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable
   82              source of the Package with your modifications.
   83 
   84              c) accompany any non-standard executables with their
   85              corresponding Standard Version executables, giving the
   86              non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
   87              documenting the differences in manual pages (or
   88              equivalent), together with instructions on where to get
   89              the Standard Version.
   90 
   91              d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
   92              Holder.
   93 
   94         5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of
   95         this Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this
   96         Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However,
   97         you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly
   98         commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial)
   99         software distribution provided that you do not advertise this
  100         Package as a product of your own.
  101 
  102         6. The graphic art and geometrical data supplied as input to or 
  103         produced as
  104         output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall
  105         under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever
  106         generated them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated
  107         with this Package.
  108 
  109         7. C or perl subroutines supplied by you and linked into this
  110         Package shall not be considered part of this Package.
  111 
  112         8. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or
  113         promote products derived from this software without specific prior
  114         written permission.
  115 
  116         9. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR
  117         IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED
  118         WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
