+      of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
 
-This copyright license states the terms under which a given free software
-Package may be copied, modified and/or redistributed, while the
-Originator(s) maintain some artistic control over the future development of
-that Package (at least as much artistic control as can be given under
-copyright law while still making the Package open source and free software).
+Preamble
 
-This license is bound by copyright law, and thus it legally applies only to
-works which the copyright holder has permitted copying, distribution or
-modification under the terms of the Artistic License, Version 2.0.
+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 reminded that You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly
-outside of a given copyright license directly with the copyright holder(s)
-of a given Package.  If the terms of this license impede your ability to
-make full use of the Package, You are encouraged to contact the copyright
-holder(s) and seek a different licensing arrangement.
+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.

-         Permission for Use and Modification Without Redistribution
-
-  (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 redistribute the Modified Version to others outside of your
-      company or organization.
-
-
-           Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version
-
-  (2) You may make available verbatim copies of the source code of the
-      Standard Version of this Package in any medium without restriction,
-      either gratis or for a Distribution 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 compiled
-      bytecode, object code or binary versions of the corresponding source
-      code in the same medium.
-
-  (3) You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other
-      modifications made available from any of the Originator(s).  The
-      resulting modified Package will still be considered the Standard
-      Version, and may be copied, modified and redistributed under the terms
-      of the original license of the Standard Version as if it were the
-      Standard Version.
-
-
- Permissions for Redistribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Sour=
-ce
-
-  (4) You may modify your copy of the source code of this Package in any way
-      and distribute that Modified Version (either gratis or for a
-      Distribution Fee, and with or without a corresponding binary, bytecode
-      or object code version of the Modified Version) provided that You
-      clearly indicate what changes You made to the Package, and provided
-      that You do at least ONE of the following:
-
-       (a) make the Modified Version available to the Originator(s) of the
-           Standard Version, under the exact license of the Standard
-           Version, so that the Originator(s) may include your modifications
-           into the Standard Version (at their discretion).
-
-       (b) modify any installation scripts and procedures so that
-           installation of the Modified Version will never conflict with an
-           installation of the Standard Version, include for each program
-           installed by the Modified Version clear documentation describing
-           how it differs from the Standard Version, and rename your
-           Modified Version so that the name is substantially different from
-           the Standard Version.
-
-       (c) permit and encourage anyone who receives a copy of the Modified
-           Version to make your modifications Freely Available in some
-           specific way.
-
-      If Your Modified Version is in turn derived from a Modified Version
-      made by a third party, then You are still required to ensure that Your
-      Modified Version complies with the requirements of this license.
-
-
-      Permissions for Redistribution of Non-Source Versions of Package
-
-  (5) You may distribute binary, object code, bytecode or other non-source
-      versions of the Standard Version of the Package, provided that you
-      include complete instructions on where to get the source code 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 our such distribution, become invalid, you must provide new
-      instructions on demand or cease further distribution.  If You 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 binary, object code, bytecode or other non-source
-      versions of a Modified Version provided that You do at least ONE of
-      the following:
-
-       (a) include a copy of the corresponding source code for the Modified
-           Version under the terms indicated in (4).
-
-       (b) ensure that the installation of Your non-source Modified Version
-           does not conflict in any way with an installation of the Standard
-           Version, include for each program installed by the Modified
-           Version clear documentation describing how it differs from the
-           Standard Version, and rename your Modified Version so that the
-           name is substantially different from the Standard Version.
-
-       (c) ensure that the Modified Version includes notification of the
-           changes made from the Standard Version, and offer to provide
-           machine-readable source code (under a license that permits making
-           that source code Freely Available) of the Modified Version via
-           mail order.
-
-
-        Permissions for Inclusion of the Package in Aggregate Works
- =20
-  (7) You may aggregate this 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.  Distribution Fees are permitted, and licensing fees for
-      other packages in the aggregation are permitted.  Your permission to
-      distribute Standard or Modified Versions of the Package is still
-      subject to the other terms set forth in other sections of this
-      license.
-
-  (8) In addition to the permissions given elsewhere by this license, You
-      are also permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions of this
-      Package with other works and distribute the result without
-      restriction, provided You have produced binary program(s) that do not
-      overtly expose the interfaces of the Package.  This includes
-      permission to embed the Package in a larger work of your own without
-      exposing a direct interface to the Package.  This also includes
-      permission to build stand-alone binary or bytecode versions of your
-      scripts that require the Package, but do not otherwise give the casual
-      user direct access to the Package itself.
-
-
-        Items That are Never Considered Part of a Modified Version Package
-
-  (9) Works (including, but not limited to, subroutines and scripts) that
-      you have linked or aggregated with the Package that merely extend or
-      make use of the Package, but are not intended to cause the Package to
-      operate differently from the Standard Version, 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 bound by
-      the terms of the Package's license.
-
-
-              Acceptance of License and Disclaimer of Warranty
-
- (10) You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed
-      it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to copy, modify or
-      distribute the Standard or Modified Versions of the Package.  These
-      actions are prohibited by copyright law if you do not accept this
-      License.  Therefore, by copying, modifying or distributing Standard
-      and Modified Versions of the Package, you indicate your acceptance of
-      the license of the Package.

+
+
+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,

+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

+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
