+License: Artistic-2.0
+ 		       The Artistic License 2.0
+ .
+ 	    Copyright (c) 2000-2006, The Perl Foundation.
+ .
+      Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+       of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+ .
+ Preamble
+ .
+ This license establishes the terms under which a given free software
+ Package may be copied, modified, distributed, and/or redistributed.
+ The intent is that the Copyright Holder maintains some artistic
+ control over the development of that Package while still keeping the
+ Package available as open source and free 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. 
+ .
+ Definitions
+ .
+     "Copyright Holder" means the individual(s) or organization(s)
+     named in the copyright notice for the entire Package.
+ .
+     "Contributor" means any party that has contributed code or other
+     material to the Package, in accordance with the Copyright Holder's
+     procedures.
+ .
+     "You" and "your" means any person who would like to copy,
+     distribute, or modify the Package.
+ .
+     "Package" means the collection of files distributed by the
+     Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection and/or of
+     those files. A given Package may consist of either the Standard
+     Version, or a Modified Version.
+ .
+     "Distribute" means providing a copy of the Package or making it
+     accessible to anyone else, or in the case of a company or
+     organization, to others outside of your company or organization.
+ .
+     "Distributor Fee" means any fee that you charge for Distributing
+     this Package or providing support for this Package to another
+     party.  It does not mean licensing fees.
+ .
+     "Standard Version" refers to the Package if it has not been
+     modified, or has been modified only in ways explicitly requested
+     by the Copyright Holder.
+ .
+     "Modified Version" means the Package, if it has been changed, and
+     such changes were not explicitly requested by the Copyright
+     Holder. 
+ .
+     "Original License" means this Artistic License as Distributed with
+     the Standard Version of the Package, in its current version or as
+     it may be modified by The Perl Foundation in the future.
+ .
+     "Source" form means the source code, documentation source, and
+     configuration files for the Package.
+ .
+     "Compiled" form means the compiled bytecode, object code, binary,
+     or any other form resulting from mechanical transformation or
+     translation of the Source form.
+ .
+ .
+ Permission for Use and Modification Without Distribution
+ .
+ (1)  You are permitted to use the Standard Version and create and use
+ Modified Versions for any purpose without restriction, provided that
+ you do not Distribute the Modified Version.
+ .
+ .
+ Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version
+ .
+ (2)  You may Distribute verbatim copies of the Source form of the
+ Standard Version of this Package in any medium without restriction,
+ either gratis or for a Distributor Fee, provided that you duplicate
+ all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.  At
+ your discretion, such verbatim copies may or may not include a
+ Compiled form of the Package.
+ .
+ (3)  You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other
+ modifications made available from the Copyright Holder.  The resulting
+ Package will still be considered the Standard Version, and as such
+ will be subject to the Original License.
+ .
+ .
+ Distribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Source 
+ .
+ (4)  You may Distribute your Modified Version as Source (either gratis
+ or for a Distributor Fee, and with or without a Compiled form of the
+ Modified Version) provided that you clearly document how it differs
+ from the Standard Version, including, but not limited to, documenting
+ any non-standard features, executables, or modules, and provided that
+ you do at least ONE of the following:
+ .
+     (a)  make the Modified Version available to the Copyright Holder
+     of the Standard Version, under the Original License, so that the
+     Copyright Holder may include your modifications in the Standard
+     Version.
+ .
+     (b)  ensure that installation of your Modified Version does not
+     prevent the user installing or running the Standard Version. In
+     addition, the Modified Version must bear a name that is different
+     from the name of the Standard Version.
+ .
+     (c)  allow anyone who receives a copy of the Modified Version to
+     make the Source form of the Modified Version available to others
+     under
+ . 		
+ 	(i)  the Original License or
+ .
+ 	(ii)  a license that permits the licensee to freely copy,
+ 	modify and redistribute the Modified Version using the same
+ 	licensing terms 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 but Distributor
+ 	Fees are allowed.
+ .
+ .
+ Distribution of Compiled Forms of the Standard Version 
+ or Modified Versions without the Source
+ .
+ (5)  You may Distribute Compiled forms of the Standard Version without
+ the Source, provided that you include complete instructions on how to
+ get the Source of the Standard Version.  Such instructions must be
+ valid at the time of your distribution.  If these instructions, at any
+ time while you are carrying out such distribution, become invalid, you
+ must provide new instructions on demand or cease further distribution.
+ If you provide valid instructions or cease distribution within thirty
+ days after you become aware that the instructions are invalid, then
+ you do not forfeit any of your rights under this license.
+ .
+ (6)  You may Distribute a Modified Version in Compiled form without
+ the Source, provided that you comply with Section 4 with respect to
+ the Source of the Modified Version.
+ .
+ .
+ Aggregating or Linking the Package 
+ .
+ (7)  You may aggregate the Package (either the Standard Version or
+ Modified Version) with other packages and Distribute the resulting
+ aggregation provided that you do not charge a licensing fee for the
+ Package.  Distributor Fees are permitted, and licensing fees for other
+ components in the aggregation are permitted. The terms of this license
+ apply to the use and Distribution of the Standard or Modified Versions
+ as included in the aggregation.
+ .
+ (8) You are permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions with
+ other works, to embed the Package in a larger work of your own, or to
+ build stand-alone binary or bytecode versions of applications that
+ include the Package, and Distribute the result without restriction,
+ provided the result does not expose a direct interface to the Package.
+ .
+ .
+ Items That are Not Considered Part of a Modified Version 
+ .
+ (9) Works (including, but not limited to, modules and scripts) that
+ merely extend or make use of the Package, do not, by themselves, cause
+ the Package to be a Modified Version.  In addition, such works are not
+ considered parts of the Package itself, and are not subject to the
+ terms of this license.
+ .
+ .
+ General Provisions
+ .
+ (10)  Any use, modification, and distribution of the Standard or
+ Modified Versions is governed by this Artistic License. By using,
+ modifying or distributing the Package, you accept this license. Do not
+ use, modify, or distribute the Package, if you do not accept this
+ license.
+ .
+ (11)  If your Modified Version has been derived from a Modified
+ Version made by someone other than you, you are nevertheless required
+ to ensure that your Modified Version complies with the requirements of
+ this license.
+ .
+ (12)  This license does not grant you the right to use any trademark,
+ service mark, tradename, or logo of the Copyright Holder.
+ .
+ (13)  This license includes the non-exclusive, worldwide,
+ free-of-charge patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell,
+ sell, import and otherwise transfer the Package with respect to any
+ patent claims licensable by the Copyright Holder that are necessarily
+ infringed by the Package. If you institute patent litigation
+ (including a cross-claim or counterclaim) against any party alleging
+ that the Package constitutes direct or contributory patent
+ infringement, then this Artistic License to you shall terminate on the
+ date that such litigation is filed.
+ .
+ (14)  Disclaimer of Warranty:
+ THE PACKAGE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER AND CONTRIBUTORS "AS
+ IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES. THE IMPLIED
+ WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR
+ NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE DISCLAIMED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY YOUR LOCAL
+ LAW. UNLESS REQUIRED BY LAW, NO COPYRIGHT HOLDER OR CONTRIBUTOR WILL
+ BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
+ DAMAGES ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THE PACKAGE, EVEN IF
+ ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
