727 | leod | 1 | BUILD SOURCE CODE LICENSE TERMS: 06/20/2000 |
2 | |||
3 | [1] I give you permission to make modifications to my Build source and |
||
4 | distribute it, BUT: |
||
5 | |||
6 | [2] Any derivative works based on my Build source may be distributed ONLY |
||
7 | through the INTERNET. |
||
8 | |||
9 | [3] Distribution of any derivative works MUST be done completely FREE of |
||
10 | charge - no commercial exploitation whatsoever. |
||
11 | |||
12 | [4] Anything you distribute which uses a part of my Build Engine source |
||
13 | code MUST include: |
||
14 | |||
15 | [A] The following message somewhere in the archive: |
||
16 | |||
17 | // "Build Engine & Tools" Copyright (c) 1993-1997 Ken Silverman |
||
18 | // Ken Silverman's official web site: "http://www.advsys.net/ken" |
||
19 | // See the included license file "BUILDLIC.TXT" for license info. |
||
20 | |||
21 | [B] This text file "BUILDLIC.TXT" along with it. |
||
22 | |||
23 | [C] Any source files that you modify must include this message as well: |
||
24 | |||
25 | // This file has been modified from Ken Silverman's original release |
||
26 | |||
27 | [5] The use of the Build Engine for commercial purposes will require an |
||
28 | appropriate license arrangement with me. Contact information is |
||
29 | on my web site. |
||
30 | |||
31 | [6] I take no responsibility for damage to your system. |
||
32 | |||
33 | [7] Technical support: Before contacting me with questions, please read |
||
34 | and do ALL of the following! |
||
35 | |||
36 | [A] Look through ALL of my text files. There are 7 of them (including this |
||
37 | one). I like to think that I wrote them for a reason. You will find |
||
38 | many of your answers in the history section of BUILD.TXT and |
||
39 | BUILD2.TXT (they're located inside SRC.ZIP). |
||
40 | |||
41 | [B] If that doesn't satisfy you, then try going to: |
||
42 | |||
43 | "http://www.advsys.net/ken/buildsrc" |
||
44 | |||
45 | where I will maintain a Build Source Code FAQ (or perhaps I might |
||
46 | just provide a link to a good FAQ). |
||
47 | |||
48 | [C] I am willing to respond to questions, but ONLY if they come at a rate |
||
49 | that I can handle. |
||
50 | |||
51 | PLEASE TRY TO AVOID ASKING DUPLICATE QUESTIONS! |
||
52 | |||
53 | As my line of defense, I will post my current policy about |
||
54 | answering Build source questions (right below the E-mail address |
||
55 | on my web site.) You can check there to see if I'm getting |
||
56 | overloaded with questions or not. |
||
57 | |||
58 | If I'm too busy, it might say something like this: |
||
59 | |||
60 | I'm too busy to answer Build source questions right now. |
||
61 | Sorry, but don't expect a reply from me any time soon. |
||
62 | |||
63 | If I'm open for Build source questions, please state your question |
||
64 | clearly and don't include any unsolicited attachments unless |
||
65 | they're really small (like less than 50k). Assume that I have |
||
66 | a 28.8k modem. Also, don't leave out important details just |
||
67 | to make your question appear shorter - making me guess what |
||
68 | you're asking doesn't save me time! |
