2 | The Clarified Artistic License | ||
3 | |||
4 | Preamble | ||
5 | |||
6 | The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a | ||
7 | Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some | ||
8 | semblance of artistic control over the development of the package, | ||
9 | while giving the users of the package the right to use and distribute | ||
10 | the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make | ||
11 | reasonable modifications. | ||
12 | |||
13 | Definitions: | ||
14 | |||
15 | "Package" refers to the collection of files 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 | ||
21 | of the Copyright Holder as specified below. | ||
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 | "Distribution fee" is a fee you charge for providing a copy | ||
30 | of this Package to another party. | ||
31 | |||
32 | "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the right to | ||
33 | use the item, though there may be fees involved in handling the | ||
34 | item. It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute | ||
35 | it under the same conditions they received it. | ||
36 | |||
37 | 1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the | ||
38 | Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you | ||
39 | duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers. | ||
40 | |||
41 | 2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications | ||
42 | derived from the Public Domain, or those made Freely Available, or from | ||
43 | the Copyright Holder. A Package modified in such a way shall still be | ||
44 | considered the Standard Version. | ||
45 | |||
46 | 3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, provided | ||
47 | that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file stating how and | ||
48 | when you changed that file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the | ||
49 | following: | ||
50 | |||
51 | a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make them | ||
52 | Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to Usenet or an | ||
53 | equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a major network | ||
54 | archive site allowing unrestricted access to them, or by allowing the | ||
55 | Copyright Holder to include your modifications in the Standard Version | ||
56 | of the Package. | ||
57 | |||
58 | b) use the modified Package only within your corporation or organization. | ||
59 | |||
60 | c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict | ||
61 | with standard executables, which must also be provided, and provide | ||
62 | a separate manual page for each non-standard executable that clearly | ||
63 | documents how it differs from the Standard Version. | ||
64 | |||
65 | d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder. | ||
66 | |||
67 | e) permit and encourge anyone who receives a copy of the modified Package | ||
68 | permission to make your modifications Freely Available | ||
69 | in some specific way. | ||
70 | |||
71 | |||
72 | 4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or | ||
73 | executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following: | ||
74 | |||
75 | a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library files, | ||
76 | together with instructions (in the manual page or equivalent) on where | ||
77 | to get the Standard Version. | ||
78 | |||
79 | b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of | ||
80 | the Package with your modifications. | ||
81 | |||
82 | c) give non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly | ||
83 | document the differences in manual pages (or equivalent), together | ||
84 | with instructions on where to get the Standard Version. | ||
85 | |||
86 | d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder. | ||
87 | |||
88 | e) offer the machine-readable source of the Package, with your | ||
89 | modifications, by mail order. | ||
90 | |||
91 | 5. You may charge a distribution fee for any distribution of this Package. | ||
92 | If you offer support for this Package, you may charge any fee you choose | ||
93 | for that support. You may not charge a license fee for the right to use | ||
94 | this Package itself. You may distribute this Package in aggregate with | ||
95 | other (possibly commercial and possibly nonfree) programs as part of a | ||
96 | larger (possibly commercial and possibly nonfree) software distribution, | ||
97 | and charge license fees for other parts of that software distribution, | ||
98 | provided that you do not advertise this Package as a product of your own. | ||
99 | If the Package includes an interpreter, You may embed this Package's | ||
100 | interpreter within an executable of yours (by linking); this shall be | ||
101 | construed as a mere form of aggregation, provided that the complete | ||
102 | Standard Version of the interpreter is so embedded. | ||
103 | |||
104 | 6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as | ||
105 | output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall | ||
106 | under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whoever generated | ||
107 | them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this | ||
108 | Package. If such scripts or library files are aggregated with this | ||
109 | Package via the so-called "undump" or "unexec" methods of | ||
110 | producing a | ||
111 | binary executable image, then distribution of such an image shall | ||
112 | neither be construed as a distribution of this Package nor shall it | ||
113 | fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4, provided that you do | ||
114 | not represent such an executable image as a Standard Version of this | ||
115 | Package. | ||
116 | |||
117 | 7. C subroutines (or comparably compiled subroutines in other | ||
118 | languages) supplied by you and linked into this Package in order to | ||
119 | emulate subroutines and variables of the language defined by this | ||
120 | Package shall not be considered part of this Package, but are the | ||
121 | equivalent of input as in Paragraph 6, provided these subroutines do | ||
122 | not change the language in any way that would cause it to fail the | ||
123 | regression tests for the language. | ||
124 | |||
125 | 8. Aggregation of the Standard Version of the Package with a commercial | ||
126 | distribution is always permitted provided that the use of this Package | ||
127 | is embedded; that is, when no overt attempt is made to make this Package's | ||
128 | interfaces visible to the end user of the commercial distribution. | ||
129 | Such use shall not be construed as a distribution of this Package. | ||
130 | |||
131 | 9. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote | ||
132 | products derived from this software without specific prior written permission. | ||
133 | |||
134 | 10. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR | ||
135 | IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED | ||
136 | WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. | ||
