It's here so that modules, programs, + etc., that want to declare this as their distribution license, can link + to it. + + It is also one of the two licenses Perl allows itself to be + redistributed and/or modified; for the other one, the GNU General Public + License, see the perlgpl. + +The "Artistic License" + Preamble + The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which a + Package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder maintains some + semblance of artistic control over the development of the package, while + giving the users of the package the right to use and distribute the + Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make + reasonable modifications. + + Definitions + "Package" + refers to the collection of files distributed by the Copyright + Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files created through + textual modification. + + "Standard Version" + refers to such a Package if it has not been modified, or has been + modified in accordance with the wishes of the Copyright Holder as + specified below. + + "Copyright Holder" + is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights for the package. + + "You" + is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing this + Package. + + "Reasonable copying fee" + is whatever you can justify on the basis of media cost, duplication + charges, time of people involved, and so on. (You will not be + required to justify it to the Copyright Holder, but only to the + computing community at large as a market that must bear the fee.) + + "Freely Available" + means that no fee is charged for the item itself, though there may + be fees involved in handling the item. It also means that recipients + of the item may redistribute it under the same conditions they + received it. + + Conditions + 1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of the + Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided that + you duplicate all of the original copyright notices and associated + disclaimers. + + 2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications + derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A + Package modified in such a way shall still be considered the + Standard Version. + + 3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way, + provided that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file + stating how and when you changed that file, and provided that you do + at least ONE of the following: + + a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make + them Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to + Usenet or an equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on + a major archive site such as uunet.uu.net, or by allowing the + Copyright Holder to include your modifications in the Standard + Version of the Package. + + b) use the modified Package only within your corporation or + organization. + + c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do not conflict + with standard executables, which must also be provided, and + provide a separate manual page for each non-standard executable + that clearly documents how it differs from the Standard Version. + + d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder. + + 4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or + executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following: + + a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library + files, together with instructions (in the manual page or + equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version. + + b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of + the Package with your modifications. + + c) give non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly + document the differences in manual pages (or equivalent), + together with instructions on where to get the Standard Version. + + d) make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder. + + 5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of this + Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this + Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However, + you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly + commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial) + software distribution provided that you do not advertise this + Package as a product of your own. You may embed this Package's + interpreter within an executable of yours (by linking); this shall + be construed as a mere form of aggregation, provided that the + complete Standard Version of the interpreter is so embedded. + + 6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or produced as + output from the programs of this Package do not automatically fall + under the copyright of this Package, but belong to whoever generated + them, and may be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this + Package. If such scripts or library files are aggregated with this + Package via the so-called "undump" or "unexec" methods of producing + a binary executable image, then distribution of such an image shall + neither be construed as a distribution of this Package nor shall it + fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4, provided that you + do not represent such an executable image as a Standard Version of + this Package. + + 7. C subroutines (or comparably compiled subroutines in other + languages) supplied by you and linked into this Package in order to + emulate subroutines and variables of the language defined by this + Package shall not be considered part of this Package, but are the + equivalent of input as in Paragraph 6, provided these subroutines do + not change the language in any way that would cause it to fail the + regression tests for the language. + + 8. Aggregation of this Package with a commercial distribution is always + permitted provided that the use of this Package is embedded; that + is, when no overt attempt is made to make this Package's interfaces + visible to the end user of the commercial distribution. Such use + shall not be construed as a distribution of this Package. + + 9. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or + promote products derived from this software without specific prior + written permission. + + 10.
