The Artistic License
|
|
Version 2.0beta5, October 2001
|
|
|
|
Copyright (C) 2000, 2001 Larry Wall, Bradley M. Kuhn.
|
|
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
|
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
|
|
|
Preamble
|
|
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 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.
|
|
|
