| 1 | + The Alasir Licence |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | + This is a free software. It's provided as-is and carries absolutely no |
| 5 | +warranty or responsibility by the author and the contributors, neither in |
| 6 | +general nor in particular. No matter if this software is able or unable to |
| 7 | +cause any damage to your or third party's computer hardware, software, or any |
| 8 | +other asset available, neither the author nor a separate contributor may be |
| 9 | +found liable for any harm or its consequences resulting from either proper or |
| 10 | +improper use of the software, even if advised of the possibility of certain |
| 11 | +injury as such and so forth. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | + The software isn't a public domain, it's a copyrighted one. In no event |
| 14 | +shall the author's or a separate contributor's copyright be denied or violated |
| 15 | +otherwise. No copyright may be removed unless together with the code |
| 16 | +contributed to the software by a holder of the respective copyright. A |
| 17 | +copyright itself indicates the rights of ownership over the code contributed. |
| 18 | +Back and forth, the author is defined as the one who holds the oldest |
| 19 | +copyright over the software. Furthermore, the software is defined as either |
| 20 | +source or binary computer code, which is organised in the form of a single |
| 21 | +computer file usually. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + The software (the whole or a part of it) is prohibited from being sold or |
| 24 | +leased in any form or manner with the only possible exceptions: |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +a) money may be charged for a physical medium used to transfer the software; |
| 27 | +b) money may be charged for optional warranty or support services related to |
| 28 | + the software. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | + Nevertheless, if the software (the whole or a part of it) is desired to |
| 31 | +become an object of sale or lease (the whole or a part of it), then a separate |
| 32 | +non-exclusive licence agreement must be negotiated from the author. Benefits |
| 33 | +accrued should be distributed between the contributors or likewise at the |
| 34 | +author's option. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + Whenever and wherever the software is distributed, in either source or |
| 37 | +binary form, either in whole or in part, it must include the complete |
| 38 | +unchanged text of this licence agreement unless different conditions have been |
| 39 | +negotiated. In case of a binary-only distribution, the names of the copyright |
| 40 | +holders must be mentioned in the documentation supplied with the software. |
| 41 | +This is supposed to protect rights and freedom of those who have contributed |
| 42 | +their time and labour to free software development, because otherwise the |
| 43 | +development itself and this licence agreement are of a very little sense. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + Nothing else but this licence agreement grants you rights to use, modify |
| 46 | +and distribute the software. Any violation of this licence agreement is |
| 47 | +recognised as an action prohibited by an applicable legislation. |
