""" "" *====================================* """ ""
This Standard Copyright Note for Free Distributable Amiga Software
was inspired by the Standardized Amiga Shareware Group (SASG) and by
the "GNU Public Licence" (created by the Free Software Foundation).
The SASG and the FSF have NOTHING to do with this document!!
These existing initiatives have limitations which prevent them of
becoming an "over all" standard:
- The "GNU Public Licence" is only for software placed in the "Public
Domain" and every developer has to include the source code of the
programs or (s)he has to make the sources available otherwise.
- The SASG is a group of developers who want to improve the image and
success of the concept of Shareware. For this aim they set some
standards for the products becoming "SASG" products.
The "AFD-COPYRIGHT"(TM) is for all kinds of FD-Software the developers
want to keep the copyright of - from Freeware to Shareware!!!
The concept of a "Standard-Licence" like this one has several advantages:
- You as a developer don't have to think about copyright stuff yourself.
- The users of your product have to read it only if they haven't done
so before.
- This document is available in several languages via Aminet. So you can
be sure that the users have read it at least once and did understand it.
This is also a first step to "localize" software.
(The number in the name of this archive corresponds to the number of
languages available in this release.)
Some of the ideas were inspired by Osma Ahvenlampi (Paragraphs 2, 3 and 5b).
If you want to include "AFD-COPYRIGHT"(TM) in your own Amiga(TM) FD-Software
package you have to follow the rules stated in "AFD-COPYRIGHT"(TM), chapter 5
"DEVELOPERS INFORMATION". Thank you very much for your support.
