BinkleyTerm Licensing Terms
Copyright (C) 1987, 1988, 1989 by Robert Hartman and Vincent Perriello.
ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION AND/OR USE PROHIBITED
WITHOUT WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM ROBERT HARTMAN AND VINCENT PERRIELLO.
Non-Commercial distribution and/or use is permitted under the following
terms:
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of BinkleyTerm source and
executable code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy a valid copyright
notice "Copyright (C) 1987, 1988, 1989 Robert Hartman and Vincent
Perriello"; keep intact the notices on all files that refer to this
License Agreement and to the absence of any warranty; PROVIDE UNMODIFIED
COPIES OF THE DOCUMENTATION AS PROVIDED WITH THE PROGRAM; and give any
other recipients of the BinkleyTerm program a copy of this License
Agreement along with the program. You may charge a distribution fee for
the physical act of transferring a copy, but no more than is necessary to
recover your actual costs incurred in the transfer. Under no
circumstances is BinkleyTerm to be distributed in such a way as to be
construed as "value added" in a sales transaction, such as, but not
limited to, software bundled with a modem or CD-ROM software
collections.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of BinkleyTerm or any portion of
it, and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms of
Paragraph 1 above, provided that you also do the following:
a) cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating
that you changed the files and the date of any change;
b) cause the executable code of such modified version to clearly
identify itself as such in the course of its normal operation;
c) if the modified version is not a "port", but operates in the
same hardware and/or software environment as the original
distribution, make the original version equally available,
clearly identifying same as the original, unmodified version;
d) cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish,
that in whole or in part contains or is a derivative of
BinkleyTerm or any part thereof, to be licensed at no charge to
all third parties on terms identical to those contained in this
License Agreement (except that you may choose to grant more
extensive warranty protection to some or all third parties, at
your option); and
e) send the complete source code modifications to either or both
of the Authors at one of the addresses listed below, for their
evaluation for inclusion in future releases of BinkleyTerm.
Should your source code be included in BinkleyTerm, the Authors
retain all rights for redistribution of the code as part of
BinkleyTerm and all derivative works, with appropriate credit
given to the author of the modification.
f) You may charge a distribution fee for the physical act of
transferring a copy, but no more than is necessary to recover
your actual costs incurred in the transfer, and you may at your
option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
3. Mere aggregation of another unrelated program with this program (or
its derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not
bring the other program under the scope of these terms.
4. You may copy and distribute BinkleyTerm (or a portion or derivative
of it, under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable form under the
terms of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the
following:
a) accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
b) accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal
shipping charge) a complete machine-readable copy of the
corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or,
c) accompany it with the information you received as to where
the corresponding source code may be obtained. (This
alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and
only if you received the program in object code or executable
form alone.)
For an executable file, complete source code means all the source code
for all modules it contains; but, as a special exception, it need not
include source code for modules which are standard libraries that
accompany the operating system on which the executable file runs.
5. You may not copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer BinkleyTerm
except as expressly provided under this License Agreement. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer BinkleyTerm is
void and your rights to use the program under this License agreement
shall be automatically terminated. However, parties who have received
computer software programs from you with this License Agreement will not
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full
compliance, and notify the Authors of their intention to comply with
this Agreement.
6. If you wish to incorporate parts of BinkleyTerm into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, please contact
either Robert Hartman or Vincent Perriello, at the addresses listed
below. We have not yet worked out a simple rule that can be stated
here, but we will usually permit this. We will be guided by the two
goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software (as it pertains to Non-Commercial use as provided by this
Agreement) and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software.
7. For the purposes of this document, "COMMERCIAL USE" is defined as
concurrent operation of the software on four or more computers or data
lines owned by the same for-profit organization. Any organization may
operate this software under the terms of this Non-Commercial Agreement
if operation is limited to three or less computers or data lines.
NO WARRANTY
BECAUSE BINKLEYTERM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, WE PROVIDE ABSOLUTELY NO
WARRANTY. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING, ROBERT HARTMAN,
VINCENT PERRIELLO AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE BINKLEYTERM "AS IS"
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF BINKLEYTERM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD BINKLEYTERM PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.
IN NO EVENT WILL ROBERT HARTMAN AND VINCENT PERRIELLO BE RESPONSIBLE IN
ANY WAY FOR THE BEHAVIOR OF MODIFIED VERSIONS OF BINKLEYTERM. IN NO
EVENT WILL ROBERT HARTMAN, VINCENT PERRIELLO, AND/OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
MAY MODIFY AND REDISTRIBUTE BINKLEYTERM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO
YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST MONIES, OR OTHER
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR
INABILITY TO USE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA
BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS) BINKLEYTERM,
EVEN IF YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR
ANY CLAIM BY ANY OTHER PARTY.
