      The "Artistic License"

      Preamble

      The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a Package
      may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some semblance of
      artistic control over the development of the package, while giving the users of
      the package the right to use and distribute the Package in a more-or-less
      customary fashion, plus the right to make reasonable modifications.

      Definitions:

          "Package" refers to the collection of files distributed by the Copyright
          Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files created through textual
          modification.

          "Standard Version" refers to such a Package if it has not been modified,
          or has been modified in accordance with the wishes of the Copyright
          Holder.

          "Copyright Holder" is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights
          for the package.

          "You" is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing this
          Package.

          "Reasonable copying fee" is whatever you can justify on the basis of
          media cost, duplication charges, time of people involved, and so on.
          (You will not be required to justify it to the Copyright Holder, but only to
          the computing community at large as a market that must bear the fee.)

          "Freely Available" means that no fee is charged for the item itself, though
          there may be fees involved in handling the item. It also means that
          recipients of the item may redistribute it under the same conditions they
          received it.

      1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the
      Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that you
      duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.

      2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications derived
      from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A Package modified in
      such a way shall still be considered the Standard Version.

      3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, provided
      that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file stating how and when
      you changed that file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

          a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make
          them Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to
          Usenet or an equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a
          major archive site such as ftp.uu.net, or by allowing the Copyright
          Holder to include your modifications in the Standard Version of the
          Package.

          b) use the modified Package only within your corporation or
          organization.

          c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict
          with standard executables, which must also be provided, and
          provide a separate manual page for each non-standard executable
          that clearly documents how it differs from the Standard Version.

          d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.

      4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
      executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

          a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library files,
          together with instructions (in the manual page or equivalent) on
          where to get the Standard Version.

          b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of
          the Package with your modifications.

          c) accompany any non-standard executables with their
          corresponding Standard Version executables, giving the
          non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
          documenting the differences in manual pages (or equivalent),
          together with instructions on where to get the Standard Version.

          d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.

      5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of this
      Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this Package. You
      may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However, you may distribute this
      Package in aggregate with other (possibly commercial) programs as part of a
      larger (possibly commercial) software distribution provided that you do not
      advertise this Package as a product of your own.

      6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as output from
      the programs of this Package do not automatically fall under the copyright of
      this Package, but belong to whomever generated them, and may be sold
      commercially, and may be aggregated with this Package.

      7. C or perl subroutines supplied by you and linked into this Package shall not
      be considered part of this Package.

      8. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or promote
      products derived from this software without specific prior written permission.

      9. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY
      EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
      LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY
      AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

                                 The End
