| 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! |
