-                      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.
-
-It also grants you the rights to reuse parts of a Package in your own
-programs without transferring this License to those programs, provided
-that you meet some reasonable requirements.
-
-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 as specified below.
-
-        "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 uunet.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) give non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
-    document 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.  If such scripts or library files are aggregated with this
-Package via the so-called "undump" or "unexec" methods of producing a
-binary executable image, then distribution of such an image shall
-neither be construed as a distribution of this Package nor shall it
-fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4, provided that you do
-not represent such an executable image as a Standard Version of this
-Package.
-
-7. You may reuse parts of this Package in your own programs, provided that
-you explicitly state where you got them from, in the source code (and, left
-to your courtesy, in the documentation), duplicating all the associated
-copyright notices and disclaimers. Besides your changes, if any, must be
-clearly marked as such. Parts reused that way will no longer fall under this
-license if, and only if, the name of your program(s) have no immediate
-connection with the name of the Package itself or its associated programs.
-You may then apply whatever restrictions you wish on the reused parts or
-choose to place them in the Public Domain--this will apply only within the
-context of your 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
