  14. SMAIL GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
  15. (Clarified 11 Feb 1988)
  16. Copyright (C) 1988 Landon Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr
  17. Copyright (C) 1992 Ronald S. Karr
  18. Copyleft (GNU) 1988 Landon Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr
  19. Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
  20. of this license, but changing it is not allowed. You can also
  21. use this wording to make the terms for other programs.
  22. The license agreements of most software companies keep you at the
  23. mercy of those companies. By contrast, our general public license is
  24. intended to give everyone the right to share SMAIL. To make sure that
  25. you get the rights we want you to have, we need to make restrictions
  26. that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender
  27. the rights. Hence this license agreement.
  28. Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give
  29. away copies of SMAIL, that you receive source code or else can get it
  30. if you want it, that you can change SMAIL or use pieces of it in new
  31. free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
  32. To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to
  33. deprive anyone else of these rights. For example, if you distribute
  34. copies of SMAIL, you must give the recipients all the rights that you
  35. have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
  36. source code. And you must tell them their rights.
  37. Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone
  38. finds out that there is no warranty for SMAIL. If SMAIL is modified by
  39. someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what
  40. they have is not what we distributed, so that any problems introduced
  41. by others will not reflect on our reputation.
  42. Therefore we (Landon Curt Noll and Ronald S. Karr) make the following
  43. terms which say what you must do to be allowed to distribute or change
  44. SMAIL.
  45. COPYING POLICIES
  46. 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of SMAIL source code
  47. as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
  48. appropriately publish on each copy a valid copyright notice "Copyright
  49. (C) 1988 Landon Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr" (or with whatever year is
  50. appropriate); keep intact the notices on all files that refer to this
  51. License Agreement and to the absence of any warranty; and give any
  52. other recipients of the SMAIL program a copy of this License
  53. Agreement along with the program. You may charge a distribution fee
  54. for the physical act of transferring a copy.
  55. 2. You may modify your copy or copies of SMAIL or any portion of it,
  56. and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of
  57. Paragraph 1 above, provided that you also do the following:
  58. a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
  59. that you changed the files and the date of any change; and
  60. b) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish,
  61. that in whole or in part contains or is a derivative of SMAIL or
  62. any part thereof, to be licensed at no charge to all third
  63. parties on terms identical to those contained in this License
  64. Agreement (except that you may choose to grant more extensive
  65. warranty protection to some or all third parties, at your option).
  66. c) You may charge a distribution fee for the physical act of
  67. transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty
  68. protection in exchange for a fee.
  69. Mere aggregation of another unrelated program with this program (or its
  70. derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring
  71. the other program under the scope of these terms.
  72. 3. You may copy and distribute SMAIL (or a portion or derivative of it,
  73. under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
  74. Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
  75. a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
  76. source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
  77. Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
  78. b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
  79. years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal
  80. shipping charge) a complete machine-readable copy of the
  81. corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
  82. Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
  83. c) accompany it with the information you received as to where the
  84. corresponding source code may be obtained. (This alternative is
  85. allowed only for non-commercial distribution and only if you
  86. received the program in object code or executable form alone.)
  87. For an executable file, complete source code means all the source code for
  88. all modules it contains; but, as a special exception, it need not include
  89. source code for modules which are standard libraries that accompany the
  90. operating system on which the executable file runs.
  91. 4. You may not copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer SMAIL
  92. except as expressly provided under this License Agreement. Any attempt
  93. otherwise to copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer SMAIL is void and
  94. your rights to use the program under this License agreement shall be
  95. automatically terminated. However, parties who have received computer
  96. software programs from you with this License Agreement will not have
  97. their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
  98. 5. If you wish to incorporate parts of SMAIL into other free
  99. programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to Landon
  100. Curt Noll & Ronald S. Karr via the Free Software Foundation at 51
  101. Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA. We have not yet
  102. worked out a simple rule that can be stated here, but we will often
  103. permit this. We will be guided by the two goals of preserving the
  104. free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting
  105. the sharing and reuse of software.
  106. Your comments and suggestions about our licensing policies and our
  107. software are welcome! This contract was based on the contract made by
  108. the Free Software Foundation. Please contact the Free Software
  109. Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,
  110. USA, or call (617) 542-5942 for details on copylefted material in
  111. general.
  112. NO WARRANTY
  113. BECAUSE SMAIL IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, WE PROVIDE ABSOLUTELY NO
  114. WARRANTY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE STATE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
  115. OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING, LANDON CURT NOLL & RONALD S. KARR AND/OR
  116. OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE SMAIL "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
  117. EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
  118. WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
  119. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF SMAIL IS WITH
  120. YOU. SHOULD SMAIL PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL
  121. NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
  122. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW WILL LANDON CURT NOLL &
  123. RONALD S. KARR AND/OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND REDISTRIBUTE
  124. SMAIL AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
  125. LOST PROFITS, LOST MONIES, OR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
  126. CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE
  127. (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED
  128. INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
  129. PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS) SMAIL, EVEN IF YOU HAVE
  130. BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY
  131. ANY OTHER PARTY.
