- Floodgap Free Software License
-
- The author of your software has chosen to distribute it under the
- Floodgap Free Software License. Although this software is without cost,
- it is not released under Copyleft or GPL, and there are differences
- which you should read. Your use of this software package constitutes
- your binding acceptance without restriction.
-
- This software is without cost
-
- The Floodgap Free Software License (FFSL) has one overriding mandate:
- that software using it, or derivative works based on software that uses
- it, must be free. By free we mean simply "free as in beer" -- you may
- put your work into open or closed source packages as you see fit,
- whether or not you choose to release your changes or updates publicly,
- but you must not ask any fee for it. (There are certain exceptions for
- for-profit use which we will discuss below.)
-
- Definitions and terms
-
- Author
- The declared copyright owner of this software package.
-
- Binary
- A pre-compiled or pre-interpreted bytecode or machine language
- representation of a software package not designed for further
- modification and tied to a particular platform or architecture.
-
- Derivative work
- Any distribution (q.v.) that contains any modification to or
- deviation from the official reference distribution (q.v.); or
- any software package significantly based on or integrally
- including the source code for its features, including but not
- limited to supersets; subsets of a significant proportion;
- in-place patched changes to source or binary files; linking in
- as a library; binary-only distributions if the original package
- included source (even if the source was not modified prior to
- compilation); or translations to another programming language,
- architecture or operating system environment. Derivative works
- of packages released under this license are also considered
- subject to this license.
-
- However, a software package that requires this package but does
- not include it or is not based upon it, even if it will not
- operate without it, is not considered a derivative work. For
- example, interpreted programs requiring an interpreter issued
- under this license, assuming they are not distributed with any
- portion of the interpreter, are not derivative works.
-
- Distribution
- A packaged release of this software, either the author's
- original work (the "reference distribution") or a derivative
- work based upon it.
-
- Reference distribution
- A packaged release of this software explicitly designated as the
- official release, written by or on behalf of the Author with his
- or her explicit designation as official. Only exact copies of
- the reference distribution may be called reference
- distributions; all other forms are derivative works.
-
- Source code
- The human-readable programming instructions of the package which
- might be easily read as text and subsequently edited, but
- requiring compilation or interpretation into binary before being
- directly useable.
-
- What you are permitted to do under this license
-
- Pursuant to the remainder of the terms below,
- * You may freely use, copy, and disseminate this software package for
- any non-commercial purpose as well as the commercial purposes
- permitted below.
- * You may freely modify this package, including source code if
- available. Your modifications need not be released, although you
- are encouraged to do so.
- * You may release your derivative works based upon this software in
- purely binary (non-source) form if you choose. You are not
- obligated to release any portion of your source code openly,
- although you are encouraged to do so.
- * If this package is a tool used for generation, compilation or
- maintenance of works, including but not limited to readable
- documents, software packages or images (for example, compilers,
- interpreters, translators, linkers, editors, assemblers or
- typesetters), you may freely use it for that purpose, commercial or
- otherwise, as the works made by this package are not considered
- subject to this license unless specified otherwise within and may
- be distributed under any desired license and/or offered for sale or
- rental. Any run-time library or run-time code section linked into
- the output by a compiler or similar code-generating tool governed
- by this license is considered to be an integral part of the output,
- and its presence does not subject the generated work to this
- license either. (This is, of course, assuming you are not using
- said tools to generate a derivative work based on this package in
- violation of the other license terms.)
- However, if you are linking or including a separately distributed
- library that is under this license, no matter what tool you are
- using to do the linking or inclusion, you are then considered to be
- making a derivative work based on that library and your work does
- fall under this license. To avoid this, do not include the library
- with your work (even though it needs the library to function) and
- instead offer the library separately without cost.
- * In addition to non-commercial use and the uses permitted above, you
- may use this software package in any for-profit endeavour as long
- as it does not involve the specific sale or rental of this package.
- Some specific but by no means exhaustive examples are listed below.
- Note that some of these situations may require additional action be
- taken to ensure compliance.
- + If this package or a derivative work allows you to serve data
- or make data available to others (for example, web servers,
- mail servers, gopher servers, etc.), you may use it to serve
- any commercial content or in any commercial setting whether
- you choose to charge a fee or not, as you are considered to be
- earning income from the content you serve and/or the services
- facilitated by your business and not from the sale of this
- package itself. (This is, of course, assuming that you are not
- charging a fee for sale or rental of this package or a
- derivative work based on this package in violation of the
- other license terms.) Similarly, any data you may acquire from
- the use of this package is yours, and not governed by this
- license in any way even if for-profit.
- + If you are selling a product that includes this package or a
- derivative work either as part of your product's requirements
- for function or as a bundled extra, such as an operating
- system distribution, you may charge a fee for your product as
- long as you also make this package or said derivative work
- available for free separately (such as by download or link
- back to this package's site), as you are considered to be
- requesting a fee for your own product and the package is
- merely included as a convenience to your users.
- + If you offer installation of this package or a derivative work
- as a service, you may charge a fee for the act of installation
- as long as you also make this package or said derivative work
- available for free (such as by download or link back to this
- package's site), as you are considered to be requesting a fee
- for the act of installation and not for the software you are
- installing.
- + The Author may also grant, in writing, other specified
- exemptions for your particular commercial purpose that do not
- contravene the spirit of this license or any license terms
- this package additionally carries.
- * In your derivative works based on this package, you may choose to
- offer warranty support or guarantees of performance. This does not
- in any way make the original Author legally, financially or in any
- other respect liable for claims issued under your warranty or
- guarantee, and you are solely responsible for the fulfillment of
- your terms even if the Author of the work you have based your work
- upon offers his or her own.
- * In your derivative works based on this package, you may further
- restrict the acceptable uses of your package or situations in which
- it may be employed as long as you clearly state that your terms
- apply only to your derivative work and not to the original
- reference distribution. However, you may not countermand or ignore,
- directly or otherwise, any restriction already made in the
- reference distribution's license, including in this document
- itself, in similar fashion to other licenses allowing compatible
- licenses to co-govern a particular package's use.
-
- What you must not do under this license
-
- Remember that these limits apply only to redistribution of a reference
- distribution, or to a true derivative work. If your project does not
- include this package or code based upon it, even if it requires this
- package to function, it is not considered subject to this license or
- these restrictions.
- * You must not charge a fee for purchase or rental of this package or
- any derivative work based on this package. It is still possible to
- use this package in a commercial environment, however -- see What
- you are permitted to do under this license.
- * You must not countermand or ignore, directly or otherwise, the
- restrictions already extant in this package's license in your
- derivative work based on it. As a corollary, you must not place
- your derivative work under a secondary license or description of
- terms that conflicts with it (for example, this license is not
- compatible with the GNU Public License).
- * You must not label any modified distribution of this package as a
- reference or otherwise official distribution without the permission
- of the original Author or Authors. You must clearly specify that
- your modified work is a derivative work, including binary-only
- releases if the original included source code and you do not even
- if you did not modify the source prior to compilation.
-
- What you must do under this license
-
- * You must agree to all terms specified (agreement to which is
- unconditionally signified by your usage, modification or
- repurposing of this package), or to remove the package from your
- computer and not use it further.
- * In the absence of any specific offer for redress or assistance
- under warranty or guarantee of performance that the Author of this
- package might make, you must agree to accept any and all liability
- that may come from the use of this package, proper or improper,
- real or imagined, and certify without condition that you use this
- product at your own risk with no guarantee of function,
- merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. If such offer
- of redress or assistance is extended, it is fulfillable only by the
- Author who extended the offer, which might not necessarily be this
- Author, nor might it be the Authors of any packages it might be
- based upon.
- * If you choose to publicly redistribute this package or create a
- derivative work based on this package, you must make it available
- without any purchase or rental fee of any kind.
- * If you choose to create a derivative work based on this package,
- your derivative work must be copyrighted, and must be governed
- under (at a minimum) the original package's license, which will
- necessarily include all terms noted here. As such, if you choose to
- distribute your derivative work, you must include a human-readable
- license in your distribution containing all restrictions of use,
- necessarily including this license, and any additional restrictions
- the Author has mandated that do not contravene this license which
- you and users of your derivative work must also honour.
- * If you choose to create and distribute a derivative work based on
- this package, your derivative work must clearly make reference to
- this package, any other packages your work or the original work
- might be based on, and all applicable copyrights, either in your
- documentation, your work's standard human-readable output, or both.
- A suggested method might be
-
- Contains or is based on the Foo software package.

- Additional notes
-
- Enforcement is the responsibility of the Author. However, violation of
- this license may subject you to criminal and civil penalties depending
- on your country.
-
