Preamble

This license establishes the terms under which a given free  software Package may

software.

You  are  always  permitted  to  make arrangements wholly outside of this license
directly  with  the  Copyright  Holder  of  a given Package. If the terms of this
license do not permit the full use that you  propose  to make of the Package, you
should contact the Copyright Holder and seek a different licensing arrangement.

        Standard Version.

             that apply to the copy that the licensee received, and requires that
             the  Source form of the Modified Version, and  of  any works derived
             from it,be made freely available in that license fees are prohibited

    instructions on demand or cease further distribution. If you  provide   valid
    instructions or cease distribution within thirty days  after you become aware
