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. + + Definitions + +"Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the +Originator(s), and derivatives of that collection of files +created through textual modification. + +"Standard Version" refers to the Package if it has not been modified, or +has been modified only in ways suggested by the Originator(s). + +"Modified Version" refers to the Package, if it has been changed by You +via textual modification of the source code, and such changes were not +suggested by the Originator(s). + +"Originator" refers to the author(s) and/or copyright +holder(s) of the Standard Version of the Package. + +"You" and "Your" refers to any person who would like to copy, +distribute, or modify the Package. + +"Distribution Fee" is any fee that You charge for providing a copy of +this Package to another party. It does not refer to licensing fees. + +"Freely Available" means that: + + (a) no fee is charged for the right to use the item (though a + Distribution Fee may be charged). + + (b) recipients of the item may redistribute it under the same + conditions they received it. + + (c) If the item is a binary, object code, bytecode, the complete + corresponding machine-readable source code is included with the + item. + + 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 + modifications made available from any of the Originator(s). The + resulting modified Package will still be considered the Standard + 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 Source + + (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 + into the Standard Version (at their discretion). + + (b) modify any installation scripts and procedures so that + 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 permission 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 + + (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. + + (11) Disclaimer of Warranty: + + THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS + "AS IS" AND ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT + LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR + A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED.
