+ The "Artistic License"
+
+ Preamble
+
+ The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a
+ Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some
+ semblance of artistic control over the development of the package,
+ while giving the users of the package the right to use and
+ distribute the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the
+ right to make reasonable modifications.
+
+ Definitions:
+
+ * "Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the
+ Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files
+ created through textual modification.
+
+ * "Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been
+ modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes of
+ the Copyright Holder.
+
+ * "Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or
+ copyrights for the package.
+
+ * "You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
+ this Package.
+
+ * "Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the
+ basis of media cost, duplication charges, time of people
+ involved, and so on. (You will not be required to justify it to
+ the Copyright Holder, but only to the computing community at
+ large as a market that must bear the fee.)
+
+ * "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item
+ itself, though there may be fees involved in handling the item.
+ It also means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
+ under the same conditions they received it.
+
+ 1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of
+ the Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided
+ that you duplicate all of the original copyright notices and
+ associated disclaimers.
+
+ 2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other
+ modifications derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright
+ Holder. A Package modified in such a way shall still be considered
+ the Standard Version.
+
+ 3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way,
+ provided that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file
+ stating how and when you changed that file, and provided that you do
+ at least ONE of the following:
+
+ a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or
+ otherwise make them Freely Available, such as by posting
+ said modifications to Usenet or an equivalent medium, or
+ placing the modifications on a major archive site such as
+ ftp.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright Holder to include
+ your modifications in the Standard Version of the Package.
+
+ b) use the modified Package only within your corporation
+ or organization.
+
+ c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not
+ conflict with standard executables, which must also be
+ provided, and provide a separate manual page for each
+ non-standard executable that clearly documents how it
+ differs from the Standard Version.
+
+ d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
+ Holder.
+
+ 4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
+ executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:
+
+ a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and
+ library files, together with instructions (in the manual
+ page or equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version.
+
+ b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable
+ source of the Package with your modifications.
+
+ c) accompany any non-standard executables with their
+ corresponding Standard Version executables, giving the
+ non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
+ documenting the differences in manual pages (or
+ equivalent), together with instructions on where to get
+ the Standard Version.
+
+ d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright
+ Holder.
+
+ 5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of
+ this Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this
+ Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However,
+ you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly
+ commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial)
+ software distribution provided that you do not advertise this
+ Package as a product of your own.
+
+ 6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as
+ output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall
+ under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whomever
+ generated them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated
+ with this Package.
+
+ 7. C or perl subroutines supplied by you and linked into this
+ Package shall not be considered part of this Package.
+
+ 8. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or
+ promote products derived from this software without specific prior
+ written permission.
+
+ 9. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR
+ IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED
+ WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+ The End
