+\subject {Introduction}
+
+What licence suits best for a \TEX\ like system is a matter of
+taste. Personally we dislike any licence that needs more than a few
+pages of dense legal code to get the message accross. A \TEX\
+related system like \CONTEXT\ is a hybrid of programs, scripts
+and|/|or macro code as well as documentation and sample code,
+including graphics. \TEX\ related systems also have a long
+standing tradition of providing support structures for users. In
+order to make support feasable, a \TEX\ based system like
+\CONTEXT\ assumes a certain logic and structure in the way the
+related files are named and organized in a tree structure. Even a
+small change in one of the elements may let such a system behave
+differently than manuals suggest. Swap a font, change some style
+defaults, leave out some pieces, and users may end up in
+confusion. A licence does not give a user any guarantees!
+
+In order to satisfy those responsible for distributing \CONTEXT,
+we need to choose a licence that makes them feel comfortable.
+Unfortunately we don't feel that comfortable with a licence that does
+not provide the guarantees that a system will not be adapted in
+such ways that the advertised behaviour changes. On the
+other hand, it is the responsibility of those distributing and
+extending the system to make sure that this does not happen.
+However, users should not automatically assume that what they get
+shipped is the same as the original, which is why we stress that
+support (from our side) will only be given on unaltered systems.
+
+First of all, what is \CONTEXT ? It's just a bunch of macros,
+written in \TEX\ and \METAPOST, meant for typesetting documents.
+The macros are accompanied by some scripts, written in \PERL\ (mainly
+the older scripts) \RUBY\ (the official ones) and \LUA\ (for
+embedded usage). The \CONTEXT\ distribution comes with a few fonts,
+files that help manage resources (e.g.\ map files), as well as
+patterns (based on official ones, so this is a derived work).
+
+The \CONTEXT\ distribution is packaged in a zip file organized in
+the \TDS\ structure.
+
+\starttabulate
+\NC \type {cont-tmf.zip} \NC The main distribution. \NC \NR
+\NC \type {cont-img.zip} \NC A few extra resources. \NC \NR
+\NC \type {cont-ext.zip} \NC Third party modules. \NC \NR
+\stoptabulate
+
+When we talk about \CONTEXT\ we also mean its graphical companion
+\METAFUN\ and \FOXET, an \XML\ related product. All these are
+included in the main distribution archive.
+
+The documentation can be downloaded from our website, one of its
+mirrors, the \TEX\ collection as distributed by \TEX\ user groups.
+For some manuals, source code is available in a subversion
+repository. The archives are also kept on \CTAN.
+
+That said, what licence does apply? We need to distinguish between
+things that resemble a program on the one hand and documentation
+on the other hand. We (currently) use a different licence for
+either of them.
+
+\subject {The Code}
+
+The program code (i.e. anything not under the \type {/doc}
+subtree) is distributed under the
+
+\startnarrower
+\goto{Creative Commons GNU GPL}[url(gpl-simple)]
+\stopnarrower
+
+For practical purposes distributers may also choose the \LATEX\
+project licence, which is considered to be a bit more \TEX\
+friendly. (BSD alike licences, the Ruby Licence and the Apache
+are all licences that apply well for \CONTEXT.)
+
+In practice, users may forget about the legal part, if only
+because I haven't even read (and understood) it completely myself,
+so let's stick to what Creative Commons makes of it:
+
+\startcolor[blue]
+The GNU General Public License is a Free Software license. Like
+any Free Software license, it grants to you the four following
+freedoms:
+
+\startitemize
+\item The freedom to run the program for any purpose.
+\item The freedom to study how the program works and adapt it to
+ your needs.
+\item The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbour.
+\item The freedom to improve the program and release your improvements
+ to the public, so that the whole community benefits.
+\stopitemize
+
+You may exercise the freedoms specified here provided that you
+comply with the express conditions of this license. The principal
+conditions are:
+
+You must conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy
+distributed an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of
+warranty and keep intact all the notices that refer to this
+License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other
+recipients of the Program a copy of the GNU General Public License
+along with the Program. Any translation of the GNU General Public
+License must be accompanied by the GNU General Public License.
+
+If you modify your copy or copies of the program or any portion of
+it, or develop a program based upon it, you may distribute the
+resulting work provided you do so under the GNU General Public
+License. Any translation of the GNU General Public License must be
+accompanied by the GNU General Public License.
+
+If you copy or distribute the program, you must accompany it with
+the complete corresponding machine-readable source code or with a
+written offer, valid for at least three years, to furnish the
+complete corresponding machine-readable source code.
+
+Any of these conditions can be waived if you get permission from
+the copyright holder.
+
+Your fair use and other rights are in no way affected by the above.
+\stopcolor
+
+\subject {Recommendations}
+
+Here are a few recommendations in case you want to distribute,
+extend of embed \CONTEXT\ in applications:
+
+\startitemize
+
+\item You can best leave the code base untouched. Most of
+\CONTEXT\ provides hooks and it's relatively easy to overload
+code. Leave the lower level system code untouched: changes may
+backfire when you update. Asking for more hooks is the best way to
+go.
+
+\item Put your own code in the right subpaths, i.e.\ modules
+approved by the development team under \type {.../third}, and
+styles and whatever else under \type {.../user}. This way your
+code will not interfere with existing code and updating will give
+less problems. Keep in mind that \TEX\ systems have their own way
+and order in locating files, and the load order often matters.
+
+\item Don't copy styles and change a few lines, but load the base one
+and built|/|patch on top of that. In the end you may benefit from
+improvements to the base style.
+
+\item Be original. The whole idea behind \CONTEXT\ is that you can
+write your own styles. On the \CONTEXT\ mailing list as well as on
+the Wiki there are enough advanced users to help you make a start.
+
+\item Don't hesitate to submit bugs reports and ask for
+extensions. It may even be that what you want is already present
+but yet undocumented.
+
+\item If things don't work as expected, check to what extend your
+system matches the (more or less) standard. We provide so called
+minimal \CONTEXT\ trees that can serve as a reference. Because
+\CONTEXT\ evolves, make sure your system is up to date.
+
+\item The scripts can best be called using \type {texmfstart}. This
+lessens dependencies on the location in the tree and ensures upward
+compatibility. It also prevents clashes with similary named scripts.
+
+\item Some scripts depend on each other. Don't mess around with the
+existing functionality and names of the scripts and then feed them
+back into the standard distributions.
+
+\stopitemize
+
+\subject {Documents}
+
+The documentation is provided under another Creative Commons licence
+
+\startnarrower
+\goto{Attribution NonCommercial ShareAlike}[url(byncsa-simple)]
+\stopnarrower
+
+This one says:
+
+\startcolor[blue]
+You are free:
+
+\startitemize
+\item to copy, distribute, display, and perform the work
+\item to make derivative works
+\stopitemize
+
+{\sc Attribution:} You must attribute the work in the manner
+specified by the author or licensor.
+
+{\sc NonCommercial:} You may not use this work for commercial
+purposes.
+
+{\sc Share Alike:} If you alter, transform, or build upon this
+work, you may distribute the resulting work only under a license
+identical to this one.
+
+\startitemize
+\item For any reuse or distribution, you must make clear to others
+ the license terms of this work.
+\item Any of these conditions can be waived if you get permission from
+ the copyright holder.
+\stopitemize
+
+Your fair use and other rights are in no way affected by the above.
+\stopcolor
+
+The non||commercial part is mostly a safeguard. We don't mind if
+user groups distribute printed copies, publish (parts of) manuals
+and|/|or if authors use example code in manuals and books about
+\CONTEXT.
+
+If you distribute \CONTEXT\ and related software on electronic media
+as part of \TEX\ distributions (either or not for money), you may
+also distribute the manuals and their sources in electronic form,
+preferable as provided by the maintainers of \CONTEXT.
+
+Keep in mind that logos and cover designs are not meant to be
+copied. We provide the source code for some manuals, but we don't
+always provide all graphics and other resources. For instance, in
+some manuals we use commercial fonts and you have to buy those
+yourself.
+
+We provide the typeset manuals at our website. Those are the official
+ones. We appreciate it if you do not to distribute manuals compiled
+on your own system as substitutes. The manuals are a showcase for what
+\CONTEXT\ provides. Help us to assure the quality.
