THE C-KERMIT 7.0 AND 8.0 LICENSE
|
||||
|
||||
Last update: Thu Feb 8 17:41:07 2002
|
||||
|
||||
This is the new C-Kermit 7.0 and 8.0 license. The intention is to allow
|
||||
C-Kermit to be distributed with "free" operating systems such as GNU/Linux,
|
||||
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, The Hurd, etc, even when the distributions
|
||||
themselves (such as Red Hat or Caldera) might be sold and/or might include
|
||||
applications that are not free, and yet still require a license to include
|
||||
C-Kermit in or with "non-free" products such as commercial OS's, commercial
|
||||
software packages, embedded systems, and hardware (other than general-purpose
|
||||
computers preloaded with "free" operating systems), since these licenses
|
||||
furnish a large portion of the Kermit Project's funding.
|
||||
|
||||
There have been some questions about the provision in Clause (A) that:
|
||||
|
||||
The
|
||||
C-Kermit source code may not be changed without the consent of the
|
||||
Kermit Project, which will not be unreasonably withheld (this is
|
||||
simply a matter of keeping a consistent and supportable code base).
|
||||
|
||||
The intention of this clause is primarily to make sure that anybody who
|
||||
makes modifications sends them back to us, since we are the ones have to
|
||||
support C-Kermit, and so we can carry them through to future releases (so
|
||||
you don't have to make the same changes again and again).
|
||||
|
||||
Secondarily it is to protect Columbia University in the unlikely event of
|
||||
modifications made with deliberate intent to offend or cause damage.
|
||||
|
||||
Any redistributor of C-Kermit under Clause (A) below should rest assured
|
||||
there is no intention of preventing them from constructing a distribution in
|
||||
the appropriate format (RPM or whatever) for their product or from issuing
|
||||
any patches required for their products; we simply want to be informed so we
|
||||
can maintain a consistent code base and a solid, supportable software
|
||||
package. We are happy to work with any redistributor an any issues that
|
||||
concern them. If you have questions, send them to kermit@columbia.edu.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: All changes to this file since 1 January 2000 (the C-Kermit 7.0
|
||||
release date) are above; the license itself has not changed, except to
|
||||
update the most recent copyright date.

||||
Project or implicitly licensed by Clause (A) below) by any individual for
|
||||
his or her OWN USE, and by any company or other organization for its own
|
||||

|
||||
approved licenses, even if non-Open-Source applications (but not
|
||||
operating systems) are included in the same distribution. Such
|
||||
distributions include, but are not limited to, CD-ROM, FTP site,
|
||||
Web site, or preinstalled software on a new GENERAL-PURPOSE
|
||||
computer, as long as the primary character of the distribution is
|
||||

|
||||
(B) Inclusion of C-Kermit software in whole or in part, in any form, in
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
Kermit Project, Columbia University; contact kermit@columbia.edu.
|
||||
|
||||
The name of Columbia University may not be used to endorse or promote
|
||||

|
||||
prior written permission.
