Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This license applies to all files found in this package which
|
|
do not fall under their own explicit license.
|
|
|
|
This license was inspired by the FreeType license, itself inspired
|
|
by th BSD, Artistic, and IJG (Independent JPEG Group) licenses,
|
|
which all encourage inclusion and use of free software in commercial
|
|
and freeware products alike. As a consequence, its main points
|
|
are that :
|
|
|
|
o We don't promise that this software works. However, we will be
|
|
interested in any kind of bug reports. ('as is' distribution)
|
|
|
|
o You can use this software for whatever you want, in parts or
|
|
full form, without having to pay us. ('royalty-free' usage)
|
|
|
|
o You may not pretend that you wrote this software. If you use
|
|
it, or only parts of it, in a program, you must acknowledge
|
|
somewhere in your documentation that you have used the g4/tools
|
|
code. ('credits')
|
|
|
|
o We do not guarantee a 'forever support' and a fixed, frozen
|
|
behavior and programming interface. As this software is done
|
|
to do science, we reserve the right to change whatever is needed
|
|
in order to fulfill our scientific program. In particular
|
|
we reserve the right to deprecate this software if it is no more
|
|
relevant for our scientific activity. ('not forever' support)
|
|
|
|
We specifically permit and encourage the inclusion of this
|
|
software, with or without modifications, in commercial products.
|
|
We disclaim all warranties covering g4/tools and assume no liability
|
|
related to g4/tools. As a consequence of our 'not forever' support policy
|
|
of g4/tools, you are strongly recommended to keep a copy on your side of
|
|
the code sources of the version of g4/tools you are going to use.
|

0. Definitions
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
'You' refers to the licensee, or person using g4/tools, where 'using'

|
|
|
|
This license applies to all files distributed in the original g4/tools
|
|
archive, including all source code, binaries and documentation,
|
|
unless otherwise stated in a file in its original, unmodified form

irrevocable right and license to use, execute, perform, compile,
|
|
display, copy, create derivative works of, distribute and
|
|
sublicense g4/tools (in both source and object code forms) and
|
|
derivative works thereof for any purpose, and to authorize
|
|
others to exercise some or all of the rights granted herein,
|
|
subject to the following conditions:
|
|
|

|
author, in the distribution documentation.
|
|
|

These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on

|
Neither the author and contributors nor you shall use the name

As you have not signed this license, you are not required to

|
accept it. However, as the g4/tools is copyrighted material, only
|
|
this license, or another one contracted with the author, grants
|
|
you the right to use, distribute, and modify it. Therefore, by using,
|
|
distributing, or modifying g4/tools, you indicate that you understand
