(( Simple Public License (SimPL) ))??

(( Preamble

This Simple Public License 2.0 (SimPL 2.0 for short) is a plain language
implementation of GPL 2.0. The words are different, but the goal is the same -
to guarantee for all users the freedom to share and change software. If anyone
wonders about the meaning of the SimPL, they should interpret it as consistent
with GPL 2.0. ))??

(( Simple Public License (SimPL) 2.0 ))??

The SimPL applies to the software's source and object code and comes with any
rights that I have in it (other than trademarks). You agree to the SimPL by
copying, distributing, or making a derivative work of the software.

You get the royalty free right to:

   -
   Use the software for any purpose;

   -
   Make derivative works of it (this is called a "Derived Work");

   -
   Copy and distribute it and any Derived Work.

If you distribute the software or a Derived Work, you must give back to the
community by:

   -
   Prominently noting the date of any changes you make;

   -
   Leaving other people's copyright notices, warranty disclaimers, and license
   terms in place;

   -
   Providing the source code, build scripts, installation scripts, and interface
   definitions in a form that is easy to get and best to modify;

   -
   Licensing it to everyone under SimPL, or substantially similar terms (such as
   GPL 2.0), without adding further restrictions to the rights provided;

   -
   Conspicuously announcing that it is available under that license.

There are some things that you must shoulder:

   -
   You get NO WARRANTIES. None of any kind;

   -
   If the software damages you in any way, you may only recover direct damages
   up to the amount you paid for it (that is zero if you did not pay anything).
   You may not recover any other damages, including those called "consequential
   damages." (The state or country where you live may not allow you to limit
   your liability in this way, so this may not apply to you);

The SimPL continues perpetually, except that your license rights end
automatically if:

   -
   You do not abide by the "give back to the community" terms (your licensees
   get to keep their rights if they abide);

   -
   Anyone prevents you from distributing the software under the terms of the
   SimPL.

License for the License

You may do anything that you want with the SimPL text; it's a license form to
use in any way that you find helpful. To avoid confusion, however, if you change
the terms in any way then you may not call your license the Simple Public
License or the SimPL (but feel free to acknowledge that your license is "based
on the Simple Public License").
