proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo:
Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS.
This commit is the start of the NEW history.
Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point.
Creation process:
1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot
2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files
3. Transform all Manifests to thin
4. Remove empty Manifests
5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$
5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags.

Please read it.) + +Thank you for acquiring a copy of XV, a pretty nifty X program. +I hope you enjoy using it, as I've enjoyed writing it. + +The latest version of XV (or at least a pointer to it) is available +via anonymous ftp on ftp.cis.upenn.edu, in the directory pub/xv. If +you're not sure if you have the latest version, or you are missing the +source or documentation for XV, PLEASE pick up the latest version of +the xv distribution. Do *not* send mail unless absolutely necessary +(ie, you don't have ftp capability). + +Note: The documentation ('xvdocs.ps') may be installed in '/usr/local'. + +If you're viewing this information via the 'About XV' command, and +you'd like to print it out, a copy of this info can be found in the +README file in the top-level XV source directory. Print that. If you +don't have it, see the previous paragraph. + + +XV Licensing Information +------------------------ +XV IS SHAREWARE FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. + +You may use XV for your own amusement, and if you find it nifty, +useful, generally cool, or of some value to you, your registration fee +would be greatly appreciated. $25 is the standard registration fee, +though of course, larger amounts are quite welcome. Folks who donate +$40 or more can receive a printed, bound copy of the XV manual for no +extra charge. If you want one, just ask. BE SURE TO SPECIFY THE +VERSION OF XV THAT YOU ARE USING! + +COMMERCIAL, GOVERNMENT, AND INSTITUTIONAL USERS MUST REGISTER THEIR +COPIES OF XV. + +This does *not* mean that you are required to register XV just because +you play with it on the workstation in your office. This falls under +the heading of 'personal use'. If you are a sysadmin, you can put XV +up in a public directory for your users amusement. Again, 'personal +use', albeit plural. + +On the other hand, if you use XV in the course of doing your work, +whatever your 'work' may happen to be, you *must* register your +copy of XV. (Note: If you are a student, and you use XV to do +classwork or research, you should get your professor/teacher/advisor +to purchase an appropriate number of copies.) + +XV licenses are $25 each. You should purchase one license per +workstation, or one per XV user, whichever is the smaller number. XV +is *not* sold on a 'number of concurrent users' basis. If XV was some +$1000 program, yes, that would be a reasonable request, but at $25, +it's not. Also, given that XV is completely unlocked, there is no way +to enforce any 'number of concurrent users' limits, so it isn't sold +that way. + +Printed and bound copies of the 100-odd page XV manual are available +for $15 each. Note that manuals are *only* sold with, at minimum, an +equal number of licenses. (e.g. if you purchase 5 licenses, you can +also purchase *up to* 5 copies of the manual) + +The source code to the program can be had (as a compressed 'tar' file +split over a couple 3.5" MS-DOS formatted floppies) for $15, for those +who don't have ftp capabilities. + +Orders outside the US and Canada must add an additional $5 per manual +ordered to cover the additional shipping charges. + +Checks, money orders, and purchase orders are accepted. Credit cards +are not. All forms of payment must be payable in US Funds. Checks +must be payable through a US bank (or a US branch of a non-US bank). +Purchase orders for less than $50, while still accepted, are not +encouraged. + +All payments should be payable to 'John Bradley', and mailed to: + John Bradley + 1053 Floyd Terrace + Bryn Mawr, PA 19010 + USA + + +Site Licenses +------------- +If you are planning to purchase 10 or more licenses, site licenses are +available, at a substantial discount. Site licenses let you run XV on +any and all computing equipment at the site, for any purpose +whatsoever. The site license covers the current version of XV, and +any versions released within one year of the licensing date. You are +also allowed to duplicate and distribute an unlimited number of copies +of the XV manual, but only for use within the site. Covered versions +of the software may be run in perpetuity. + +Also, it should be noted that a 'site' can be defined as anything +you'd like. It can be a physical location (a room, building, +location, etc.), an organizational grouping (a workgroup, department, +division, etc.) or any other logical grouping ("the seventeen +technical writers scattered about our company", etc.). + +The site license cost will be based on your estimate of the number of +XV users or workstations at your site, whichever is the smaller +number. + +If you are interested in obtaining a site license, please contact the +author via electronic mail or FAX (see below for details). Send +information regarding your site (the name or definition of the 'site', +a physical address, a fax number, and an estimate of the number of +users or workstations), and we'll get a site license out to you for +your examination. + + +Copyright Notice +---------------- +XV is Copyright 1989, 1994 by John Bradley + +Permission to copy and distribute XV in its entirety, for +non-commercial purposes, is hereby granted without fee, provided that +this license information and copyright notice appear in all copies. + +If you redistribute XV, the *entire* contents of this distribution +must be distributed, including the README, and INSTALL files, the +sources, and the complete contents of the 'docs' directory. + +Note that distributing XV 'bundled' in with any product is considered +to be a 'commercial purpose'. + +Also note that any copies of XV that are distributed MUST be built +and/or configured to be in their 'unregistered copy' mode, so that it +is made obvious to the user that XV is shareware, and that they should +consider registering, or at least reading this information. + +The software may be modified for your own purposes, but modified +versions may not be distributed without prior consent of the author. + +This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or implied +warranty. In no event will the author be held liable for any damages +arising from the use of this software. + +If you would like to do something with XV that this copyright +prohibits (such as distributing it with a commercial product, using +portions of the source in some other program, distributing registered +copies, etc.), please contact the author (preferably via email). +Arrangements can probably be worked out. + + +The author may be contacted via: + US Mail: John Bradley + 1053 Floyd Terrace + Bryn Mawr, PA 19010 + + FAX: (610) 520-2042 + +Electronic Mail regarding XV should be sent to one of these three addresses: + xv@devo.dccs.upenn.edu - general XV questions + xvbiz@devo.dccs.upenn.edu - all XV licensing questions + xvtech@devo.dccs.upenn.edu - bug reports, technical questions + +Please do *not* send electronic mail directly to the author, as he +gets more than enough as it is. + + |
