For definitions and explanations pertaining to matters of copyright and shareware distribution, we would direct you to the files Shr-ware.doc and ShareW.txt included as part of the Adastra software package. Limited Distribution License: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As the exclusive copyright holder for Adastra, Swimming Elk Software authorizes on-line distribution only in accordance with the following restrictions. Disk Vendors and Distributors should refer to the VENDOR.TXT text file for complete license information. The Adastra software package is defined as containing all the material listed in the VENDINFO.DIZ file. If any files listed in VENDINFO.DIZ, or VENDINFO.DIZ itself, are missing, then the package is not complete and distribution is prohibited. Please contact us directly or navigate to our Web site to obtain a complete package suitable for distribution. o The Adastra package - including all related program, data, and documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way (other than that mentioned in the following paragraph) and must be distributed as a complete package, without exception. VENDINFO.DIZ contains a list of all files which form part of the Coeli package. o Many sites customarily add a small text file (advertisement) to each archived file. This text file describes the site and tells people that the file was downloaded from that particular site. Other sites add a small one-line message with their site name and phone number into the compressed file, which will display when the file is uncompressed. Either of these methods of mentioning your BBS or ftp site are acceptable and may be used, provided the program and documentation is otherwise unmodified and complete. o Swimming Elk Software prohibits the distribution of outdated versions of the Adastra shareware package without written permission from Swimming Elk Software. If the version you have obtained is over three (3) months old, please contact us or navigate to our Web site to ensure you have the most current version. o Licensee shall not use, copy, rent, lease, sell, modify, decompile, disassemble, otherwise reverse engineer, or transfer the licensed program or its related files except as provided in this agreement. Any such unauthorized use shall result in immediate and automatic termination of this license. o Licensee hereby agrees not to post the Adastra software package publicly in an ftp directory inappropriate to its category. Eg. pc/astronomy is an appropriate directory; pc/demo is not. Distributors are particularly asked to avoid the following terms when describing the Adastra software package: Nag, nagware, public domain, demo, demonstration software, or any other term or phrase which admits of an interpretation not in keeping with the official product definition given. Non-compliance with this request may invalidate previous license permissions granted by Swimming Elk Software to the distributor (Licensee). Licensee may not attribute authorship of the Adastra software package to any name but Swimming Elk Software. All rights not expressly granted here are reserved to Swimming Elk Software.
