- Preamble
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-This copyright license states the terms under which a given free software
-Package may be copied, modified and/or redistributed, while the
-Originator(s) maintain some artistic control over the future development of
-that Package (at least as much artistic control as can be given under
-copyright law while still making the Package open source and free software).
+Preamble
-This license is bound by copyright law, and thus it legally applies only to
-works which the copyright holder has permitted copying, distribution or
-modification under the terms of the Artistic License, Version 2.0.
+This license establishes the terms under which a given free software
+Package may be copied, modified, distributed, and/or redistributed.
+The intent is that the Copyright Holder maintains some artistic
+control over the development of that Package while still keeping the
+Package available as open source and free software.
-You are reminded that You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly
-outside of a given copyright license directly with the copyright holder(s)
-of a given Package. If the terms of this license impede your ability to
-make full use of the Package, You are encouraged to contact the copyright
-holder(s) and seek a different licensing arrangement.
+You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly outside of this
+license directly with the Copyright Holder of a given Package. If the
+terms of this license do not permit the full use that you propose to
+make of the Package, you should contact the Copyright Holder and seek
+a different licensing arrangement.

- Permission for Use and Modification Without Redistribution
-
- (1) You are permitted to use the Standard Version and create and use
- Modified Versions for any purpose without restriction, provided that
- you do not redistribute the Modified Version to others outside of your
- company or organization.
-
-
- Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version
-
- (2) You may make available verbatim copies of the source code of the
- Standard Version of this Package in any medium without restriction,
- either gratis or for a Distribution Fee, provided that you duplicate
- all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers. At
- Your discretion, such verbatim copies may or may not include compiled
- bytecode, object code or binary versions of the corresponding source
- code in the same medium.
-
- (3) You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other

- Version, and may be copied, modified and redistributed under the terms
- of the original license of the Standard Version as if it were the
- Standard Version.
-
-
- Permissions for Redistribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Sour=
-ce
-
- (4) You may modify your copy of the source code of this Package in any way
- and distribute that Modified Version (either gratis or for a
- Distribution Fee, and with or without a corresponding binary, bytecode
- or object code version of the Modified Version) provided that You
- clearly indicate what changes You made to the Package, and provided
- that You do at least ONE of the following:
-
- (a) make the Modified Version available to the Originator(s) of the
- Standard Version, under the exact license of the Standard
- Version, so that the Originator(s) may include your modifications

- installation of the Modified Version will never conflict with an
- installation of the Standard Version, include for each program
- installed by the Modified Version clear documentation describing
- how it differs from the Standard Version, and rename your
- Modified Version so that the name is substantially different from
- the Standard Version.
-
- (c) permit and encourage anyone who receives a copy of the Modified
- Version to make your modifications Freely Available in some
- specific way.
-
- If Your Modified Version is in turn derived from a Modified Version
- made by a third party, then You are still required to ensure that Your
- Modified Version complies with the requirements of this license.
-
-
- Permissions for Redistribution of Non-Source Versions of Package
-
- (5) You may distribute binary, object code, bytecode or other non-source
- versions of the Standard Version of the Package, provided that you
- include complete instructions on where to get the source code of the
- Standard Version. Such instructions must be valid at the time of Your
- distribution. If these instructions, at any time while You are
- carrying our such distribution, become invalid, you must provide new
- instructions on demand or cease further distribution. If You cease
- distribution within thirty days after You become aware that the
- instructions are invalid, then You do not forfeit any of Your rights
- under this license.
-
- (6) You may distribute binary, object code, bytecode or other non-source
- versions of a Modified Version provided that You do at least ONE of
- the following:
-
- (a) include a copy of the corresponding source code for the Modified
- Version under the terms indicated in (4).
-
- (b) ensure that the installation of Your non-source Modified Version
- does not conflict in any way with an installation of the Standard
- Version, include for each program installed by the Modified
- Version clear documentation describing how it differs from the
- Standard Version, and rename your Modified Version so that the
- name is substantially different from the Standard Version.
-
- (c) ensure that the Modified Version includes notification of the
- changes made from the Standard Version, and offer to provide
- machine-readable source code (under a license that permits making
- that source code Freely Available) of the Modified Version via
- mail order.
-
-
- Permissions for Inclusion of the Package in Aggregate Works
- =20
- (7) You may aggregate this Package (either the Standard Version or
- Modified Version) with other packages and distribute the resulting
- aggregation provided that You do not charge a licensing fee for the
- Package. Distribution Fees are permitted, and licensing fees for
- other packages in the aggregation are permitted. Your permission to
- distribute Standard or Modified Versions of the Package is still
- subject to the other terms set forth in other sections of this
- license.
-
- (8) In addition to the permissions given elsewhere by this license, You
- are also permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions of this
- Package with other works and distribute the result without
- restriction, provided You have produced binary program(s) that do not
- overtly expose the interfaces of the Package. This includes
- permission to embed the Package in a larger work of your own without
- exposing a direct interface to the Package. This also includes
- permission to build stand-alone binary or bytecode versions of your
- scripts that require the Package, but do not otherwise give the casual
- user direct access to the Package itself.
-
-
- Items That are Never Considered Part of a Modified Version Package
-
- (9) Works (including, but not limited to, subroutines and scripts) that
- you have linked or aggregated with the Package that merely extend or
- make use of the Package, but are not intended to cause the Package to
- operate differently from the Standard Version, do not, by themselves,
- cause the Package to be a Modified Version. In addition, such works
- are not considered parts of the Package itself, and are not bound by
- the terms of the Package's license.
-
-
- Acceptance of License and Disclaimer of Warranty
-
- (10) You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
- it. However, nothing else grants you permission to copy, modify or
- distribute the Standard or Modified Versions of the Package. These
- actions are prohibited by copyright law if you do not accept this
- License. Therefore, by copying, modifying or distributing Standard
- and Modified Versions of the Package, you indicate your acceptance of
- the license of the Package.
-
