- Notice: There is no warranty with this product, either expressed
- or implied. Use at your own risk. Softlanding is not liable or
- responsible for damage or loss incurred or resulting from the use
- or misuse of this product, and our responsibility is limited to
- providing copies of disks. Softlanding charges only for the copy
- service, not the content. The content is made freely distributable
- at no charge, subject to the following restrictions.
-
- Restrictions: Please read the file COPYING which outlines the GNU
- copying (Disk 3) restrictions. The linux kernel is copyright Linus
- B. Torvalds. Various other copyrights apply, but the upshot is that
- you may do whatever you like with SLS, except restrict others in any
- way from doing likewise, and you must leave all copyrights as well as
- the README file intact, and you must not misrepresent or take credit
- for the work of others.
-
- Note also that the installation scripts (but very
- little else) in SLS are copyright Softlanding Software.
- Using them to roll your own distribution, tearing off the
- SLS name, and putting in your own, is not permitted. These
- scripts "are" SLS, and any distribution built using them
- must be called thus. Doing otherwise constitutes taking
- credit for the work of others.
-
- Selling SLS: Softlanding has no objections to SLS being resold (nor,
- however does it warrant that you would be legally entitled to do so),
- but it does have a request: Softlanding asks that if you do resell SLS,
- or redistribute it by any other than electronic means (such as BBS),
- that you also offer customer support to your clients. That is, Soft-
- landing would ideally be the only source of the unsupported SLS dis-
- tribution, or the clearing house for new versions, with other resellers
- adding value in the way of support (and quite possibly price). Soft-
- landing, however, intends to make no effort to enforce or coerce this
- policy. It is only a request.
