QFAX Copying Conditions

The programs currently being distributed that relate to QFAX include qfax, text2g3, printfax, qfv, plus other separate programs (including fsPIC, qfxfnt, and examples). These programs are free; this means that everyone is free to use them and free to redistribute them on a free basis. There are restrictions on their distribution, but these restrictions are designed to permit everything that a good cooperating citizen would want to do. What is not allowed is to try to prevent others from further sharing any version of these programs that they might get from you.

Specifically, I want to make sure that you have the right to give away copies of the programs that relate to QFAX, that you can get the source code if you want it, that you can change these programs or use pieces of them in new free programs, and that you know you can do these things.

To make sure that everyone has such rights, I have to forbid you to deprive anyone else of these rights. For example, if you distribute copies of the QFAX related programs, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, know that they can get the source code. And you must tell them their rights.

Also, for my own protection, I must make certain that everyone finds out that there is no warranty for the programs that relate to QFAX. If these programs are modified by someone else and passed on, I want their recipients to know that what they have is not what I distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on my reputation.

The following precise conditions pertain to QFAX.

1. QFAX is copyright (c) Jonathan Hudson. All rights reserved.
2. NO WARRANTY. Every effort has been made to ensure that the programs described operate correctly. No guarantee of any kind is given that the program(s) described in this document are reliable. You use this material at your own risk.
3. QFAX may be distributed in user group or public domain libraries, and posted on public access BBS provided:
   1. You may not profit by distributing QFAX. You may only charge for your time, media and postage costs. Any charges, excluding postage, shall not exceed US$6.00.
   2. You may not claim ownership of, or any rights to, the software.
   3. You may not place any restriction on the further distribution of the software.

If you find QFAX useful you are encouraged to make a small donation to an animal welfare charity.
