Except when otherwise stated in writing, the +Copyright holder provides KOMA-Script `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 the +program is with you. Should KOMA-Script prove defective, you assume +the cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction. + +In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing +will the Copyright holder, or any of the individual authors named in +the source for KOMA-Script, be liable to you for damages, including +any general, special, incidental or consequential damages arising out +of any use of KOMA-Script or out of inability to use KOMA-Script +(including but not limited to loss of data or data being rendered +inaccurate or losses sustained by you or by third parties as a result +of a failure of The Program to operate with any other programs), even +if such holder or other party has been advised of the possibility of +such damages. + + +DISTRIBUTION +============ + +Redistribution of unchanged files is allowed provided that all files +that make up the distribution of KOMA-Script are distributed. +In particular this means that KOMA-Script has to be distributed +including its documentation if documentation was part of the original +distribution. If you distribute KOMA-Script together with a +installation programm or installation programms, you have to take +care, that users cannot skip or delete parts of KOMA-Script without +be well informed about this action. + +The distribution of KOMA-Script contain a listing of all the files +covered by this license at readme.txt and liesmich.txt. + +If you receive only some of these files from someone, complain! + +The distribution of changed versions of certain files included in the +KOMA-Script, and the reuse of code from KOMA-Script, are allowed +under the following restrictions: + + * It is allowed only if the legal notice in the file does not + expressly forbid it. + See note below, under "Conditions on individual files". + + * You rename the file before you make any changes to it, unless the + file explicitly says that renaming is not required. Any such changed + files must be distributed under a license that forbids distribution + of those files, and any files derived from them, under the names used + by the original files in the distribution of KOMA-Script. + + * You change any `identification string' in KOMA-Script to clearly + indicate that the file is not part of the standard system. + + * You change the `error report address' in any modified versions of + KOMA-Script, so that reports for files not maintained by the + original program maintainers are directed to the maintainers of the + changed files. + + * You acknowledge the source and authorship of the original version + in the modified file. + + * You also distribute the unmodified version of the file. + + * Then files with the following file extensions which have special + meaning in LaTeX Software, have special modification rules under the + license: + + - Files with extension `.ins' (installation files): these files may + not be modified at all because they contain the legal notices + that are placed in the generated files. + + - Files with extension `.fd' (LaTeX font definitions files): these + files are allowed to be modified without changing the name, but + only to enable use of all available fonts and to prevent attempts + to access unavailable fonts. However, modified files are not + allowed to be distributed in place of original files. + + - Files with extension `.cfg' (configuration files): these files + can be created or modified to enable easy configuration of the + system. The documentation in cfgguide.tex in the base LaTeX + distribution describes when it makes sense to modify or generate + such files. + + +The above restrictions are not intended to prohibit, and hence do +not apply to, the updating, by any method, of a file so that it +becomes identical to the latest version of that file in KOMA-Script. + +======================================================================== + +NOTES +===== + +We believe that these requirements give you the freedom you to make +modifications that conform with whatever technical specifications you +wish, whilst maintaining the availability, integrity and reliability of +The Program. If you do not see how to achieve your goal whilst +adhering to these requirements then read the document cfgguide.tex +in the base LaTeX distribution for suggestions. + +Because of the portability and exchangeability aspects of systems +like LaTeX, The LaTeX3 Project deprecates the distribution of +non-standard versions of components of LaTeX or of generally available +contributed code for them but such distributions are permitted under the +above restrictions. + +The document modguide.tex in the base LaTeX distribution details +the reasons for the legal requirements detailed above. +Even if KOMA-Script would be unrelated to LaTeX, the argument in +modguide.tex may still apply, and should be read before +a modified version of KOMA-Script is distributed. + + +Conditions on individual files +============================== + +The individual files may bear additional conditions which supersede +the general conditions on distribution and modification contained in +this file. + +Typical examples of files with more restrictive modification +conditions would be files that contain the text of copyright notices. + + * The conditions on individual files differ only in the + extent of *modification* that is allowed. + + * The conditions on *distribution* are the same for all the files. + Thus a (re)distributor of a complete, unchanged copy of The Program + need meet only the conditions in this file; it is not necessary to + check the header of every file in the distribution to check that a + distribution meets these requirements. + +Such files are: + + * All files ending `.txt' or `.TXT': + You are not allowed to modify these files containing legal notices. + + * All files starting `scr_new' or `scrnew': + You are not allowed to modify these files containing information + about the versions of KOMA-Script. You are not allowed to add other + files with such a name to the bundle. + + * Alle anderen Dateien mit dem Anfang `scr': + These are original KOMA-Script files. You are not allowed to start + the name of a changed or new file with this letters and place it + nearby KOMA-Script, if it is not part of the original KOMA-Script + bundle. |
