Karr - Copyright (C) 1992 Ronald S. Karr - Copyleft (GNU) 1988 Landon Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr - - Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies - of this license, but changing it is not allowed. You can also - use this wording to make the terms for other programs. - - The license agreements of most software companies keep you at the -mercy of those companies. By contrast, our general public license is -intended to give everyone the right to share SMAIL. To make sure that -you get the rights we want you to have, we need to make restrictions -that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender -the rights. Hence this license agreement. - - Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give -away copies of SMAIL, that you receive source code or else can get it -if you want it, that you can change SMAIL or use pieces of it in new -free programs, and that you know you can do these things. - - To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to -deprive anyone else of these rights. For example, if you distribute -copies of SMAIL, you must give the recipients all the rights that you -have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the -source code. And you must tell them their rights. - - Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone -finds out that there is no warranty for SMAIL. If SMAIL is modified by -someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what -they have is not what we distributed, so that any problems introduced -by others will not reflect on our reputation. - - Therefore we (Landon Curt Noll and Ronald S. Karr) make the following -terms which say what you must do to be allowed to distribute or change -SMAIL. - - - COPYING POLICIES - - 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of SMAIL source code -as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and -appropriately publish on each copy a valid copyright notice "Copyright -(C) 1988 Landon Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr" (or with whatever year is -appropriate); keep intact the notices on all files that refer to this -License Agreement and to the absence of any warranty; and give any -other recipients of the SMAIL program a copy of this License -Agreement along with the program. You may charge a distribution fee -for the physical act of transferring a copy. - - 2. You may modify your copy or copies of SMAIL or any portion of it, -and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of -Paragraph 1 above, provided that you also do the following: - - a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating - that you changed the files and the date of any change; and - - b) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, - that in whole or in part contains or is a derivative of SMAIL or - any part thereof, to be licensed at no charge to all third - parties on terms identical to those contained in this License - Agreement (except that you may choose to grant more extensive - warranty protection to some or all third parties, at your option). - - c) You may charge a distribution fee for the physical act of - transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty - protection in exchange for a fee. - -Mere aggregation of another unrelated program with this program (or its -derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring -the other program under the scope of these terms. - - 3. You may copy and distribute SMAIL (or a portion or derivative of it, -under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of -Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: - - a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable - source code, which must be distributed under the terms of - Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, - - b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three - years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal - shipping charge) a complete machine-readable copy of the - corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of - Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, - - c) accompany it with the information you received as to where the - corresponding source code may be obtained. (This alternative is - allowed only for non-commercial distribution and only if you - received the program in object code or executable form alone.) - -For an executable file, complete source code means all the source code for -all modules it contains; but, as a special exception, it need not include -source code for modules which are standard libraries that accompany the -operating system on which the executable file runs. - - 4. You may not copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer SMAIL -except as expressly provided under this License Agreement. Any attempt -otherwise to copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer SMAIL is void and -your rights to use the program under this License agreement shall be -automatically terminated. However, parties who have received computer -software programs from you with this License Agreement will not have -their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. - - 5. If you wish to incorporate parts of SMAIL into other free -programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to Landon -Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr via the Free Software Foundation at 51 -Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA. We have not yet -worked out a simple rule that can be stated here, but we will often -permit this. We will be guided by the two goals of preserving the -free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting -the sharing and reuse of software. - -Your comments and suggestions about our licensing policies and our -software are welcome! This contract was based on the contract made by -the Free Software Foundation. Please contact the Free Software -Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, -USA, or call (617) 542-5942 for details on copylefted material in -general. - - NO WARRANTY - - BECAUSE SMAIL IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, WE PROVIDE ABSOLUTELY NO -WARRANTY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE STATE LAW.
