DESCRIPTION
Perl is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the terms of either:
a) the GNU General Public License as published by the Free
Software Foundation; either version 1, or (at your option) any
later version, or
b) the "Artistic License" which comes with this Kit.
This is "The Artistic License". It's here so that modules,
programs, etc., that want to declare this as their
distribution license can link to it.
For the GNU General Public License, see perlgpl.
The "Artistic License"
Preamble
The intent of this document is to state the conditions under
which a Package may be copied, such that the Copyright
Holder maintains some semblance of artistic control over the
development of the package, while giving the users of the
package the right to use and distribute the Package in a
more-or-less customary fashion, plus the right to make
reasonable modifications.
Definitions
"Package"
refers to the collection of files distributed by the
Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of
files created through textual modification.
"Standard Version"
refers to such a Package if it has not been modified, or
has been modified in accordance with the wishes of the
Copyright Holder as specified below.
"Copyright Holder"
is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights for
the package.
"You"
is you, if you're thinking about copying or distributing
this Package.

Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERLARTISTIC(1)
"Reasonable copying fee"
is whatever you can justify on the basis of media cost,
duplication charges, time of people involved, and so on.
(You will not be required to justify it to the Copyright
Holder, but only to the computing community at large as
a market that must bear the fee.)
"Freely Available"
means that no fee is charged for the item itself, though
there may be fees involved in handling the item. It also
means that recipients of the item may redistribute it
under the same conditions they received it.
Conditions
1. You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source
form of the Standard Version of this Package without
restriction, provided that you duplicate all of the
original copyright notices and associated disclaimers.
2. You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other
modifications derived from the Public Domain or from the
Copyright Holder. A Package modified in such a way
shall still be considered the Standard Version.
3. You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in
any way, provided that you insert a prominent notice in
each changed file stating how and when you changed that
file, and provided that you do at least ONE of the
following:
a) place your modifications in the Public Domain or
otherwise make them Freely Available, such as by
posting said modifications to Usenet or an
equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a
major archive site such as uunet.uu.net, or by
allowing the Copyright Holder to include your
modifications in the Standard Version of the
Package.
b) use the modified Package only within your
corporation or organization.
c) rename any non-standard executables so the names do
not conflict with standard executables, which must
also be provided, and provide a separate manual page
for each non-standard executable that clearly
documents how it differs from the Standard Version.
d) make other distribution arrangements with the
Copyright Holder.
4. You may distribute the programs of this Package in
perl v5.12.5 Last change: 2012-10-11 2
Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERLARTISTIC(1)
object code or executable form, provided that you do at
least ONE of the following:
a) distribute a Standard Version of the executables and
library files, together with instructions (in the
manual page or equivalent) on where to get the
Standard Version.
b) accompany the distribution with the machine-readable
source of the Package with your modifications.
c) give non-standard executables non-standard names,
and clearly document the differences in manual pages
(or equivalent), together with instructions on where
to get the Standard Version.
d) make other distribution arrangements with the
Copyright Holder.
5. You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any
distribution of this Package. You may charge any fee
you choose for support of this Package. You may not
charge a fee for this Package itself. However, you may
distribute this Package in aggregate with other
(possibly commercial) programs as part of a larger
(possibly commercial) software distribution provided
that you do not advertise this Package as a product of
your own. You may embed this Package's interpreter
within an executable of yours (by linking); this shall
be construed as a mere form of aggregation, provided
that the complete Standard Version of the interpreter is
so embedded.
6. The scripts and library files supplied as input to or
produced as output from the programs of this Package do
not automatically fall under the copyright of this
Package, but belong to whoever generated them, and may
be sold commercially, and may be aggregated with this
Package. If such scripts or library files are
aggregated with this Package via the so-called "undump"
or "unexec" methods of producing a binary executable
image, then distribution of such an image shall neither
be construed as a distribution of this Package nor shall
it fall under the restrictions of Paragraphs 3 and 4,
provided that you do not represent such an executable
image as a Standard Version of this Package.
7. C subroutines (or comparably compiled subroutines in
other languages) supplied by you and linked into this
Package in order to emulate subroutines and variables of
the language defined by this Package shall not be
considered part of this Package, but are the equivalent
perl v5.12.5 Last change: 2012-10-11 3
Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERLARTISTIC(1)
of input as in Paragraph 6, provided these subroutines
do not change the language in any way that would cause
it to fail the regression tests for the language.
8. Aggregation of this Package with a commercial
distribution is always permitted provided that the use
of this Package is embedded; that is, when no overt
attempt is made to make this Package's interfaces
visible to the end user of the commercial distribution.
Such use shall not be construed as a distribution of
this Package.
9. The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to
endorse or promote products derived from this software
without specific prior written permission.
10. THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
