ARJ LICENSE POLICY May 1991
------------------
The ARJ archiver, the REARJ program, the ARJSFX module, the ARJSFXJR
module, and its documentation are copyright (c) 1990,91 Robert K Jung,
all rights reserved. The ARJ programs may not be circulated in any
incomplete or modified form, nor sold for profit, without written
permission of the author.
The ARJ archiver contains proprietary processes for which patent
rights are being sought by the author. Please note that ARJ
compatible archivers can be built without infringing on any ARJ
2.10 proprietary processes. ARJ 1.10 is such a compatible
archiver.
If you distribute this software to others, you are required to
distribute the ENTIRE package consisting of the following files:
UNARJ.ARJ - UNARJ C source, UNARJ.EXE and documentation
ARJ.EXE
ARJ.DOC
ARJ_BBS.DOC
ARJSORT.BAT
ARJSORT.COM
ARJSORT.DOC
LICENSE.DOC
ORDERFRM.DOC
README.DOC
REARJ.CFG
REARJ.DOC
REARJ.EXE
REGISTER.EXE
TECHNOTE.DOC
UPDATE.DOC
WHATSNEW.DOC
WHY_ARJ.DOC
I strongly prefer that the files be distributed in the format
originally released: ARJ210.EXE with the ARJ-SECURITY envelope as
created by the author. If you must distribute the archive in ZIP
format, please archive the ARJ210.EXE as one file inside the ZIP
archive.
You may not distribute the registered versions of ARJ, ARJR, and DEARJ
except as noted in your ARJ license agreement. ARJR is the ARJ
program minus the help screens and SFX/SFXJR modules. DEARJ is the
ARJR program minus the archive modification/creation functions. ARJR
and DEARJ are available only to ARJ LICENSEES. See the ORDERFRM.DOC
for ordering information. Those who have made donations to ARJ may
upgrade to a SITE LICENSE with full credit for your previous donation.
Please note that on your order.
The use and/or sale of ARJ, ARJR, DEARJ, REARJ, UNARJ, ARJSFX, and
ARJSFXJR (ARJ package) is subject to the following terms:
PERSONAL USE:
For personal non-commercial use, ARJ, ARJSFX, and ARJSFXJR may be
freely used and shared with others. There is no REQUIRED registration
fee for non-commercial/non-institutional personal use.
For personal non-commercial use, the program REARJ may be freely used
only by ARJ users. An ARJ user is one who uses ARJ on a regular
basis. Others who wish to use REARJ must purchase a site license for
the ARJ package.
However, if you find the ARJ package of value, a gift of ten dollars
or any amount would be greatly appreciated. Please remember that
improvements to the ARJ package cannot happen without your support.
At least help by sharing ARJ with others.
BULLETIN BOARD SYSTEM (BBS) USE:
ARJ and REARJ may be freely used on non-commercial computer bulletin
board systems where ARJ is one of the supported primary archive
formats. The use of ARJ and/or REARJ on a BBS where ARJ is not one of
the supported primary archive formats requires a site license.
INSTITUTIONAL/COMMERCIAL SITE LICENSE:
The UNARJ.EXE program may be used freely without a license.
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business wishing to
use the ARJ software in the course of its internal business must
purchase a SITE LICENSE. A sample SITE LICENSE for the internal use
of the ARJ software is included at the end of this document. Please
see the ORDERFRM.DOC or write for terms.
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business may use
the unregistered shareware version of ARJ only for evaluation purposes
and only for a thirty day period. After the thirty day period, you
must either register ARJ or discontinue its use. If you register ARJ,
you may continue to use the unregistered ARJ program until you receive
the registered version.
For the purposes of this license, a SITE is considered a group of
computers provided technical support from one location.
Examples of institutional or commercial use of ARJ:
1) Using ARJ to backup your business programs and/or data.
2) Using ARJ to create archives for storing or transporting data.
3) Using ARJ on a company supplied home computer for company
business.
4) Using ARJ to backup your research programs and/or data.
5) Using ARJ on your home business computer for business purposes.
The above examples should NOT be construed as the ONLY types of
institutional or commercial use of ARJ.
DISTRIBUTION LICENSE:
Standard file archives (*.ARJ) created by ARJ may be distributed
without a license. The UNARJ.EXE program may be freely used and
distributed without a license.
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business wishing to
include DEARJ, ARJSFX or ARJSFXJR as an integral part of a software
and/or hardware package to be distributed externally for the purpose
of saving diskette space must purchase a DISTRIBUTION LICENSE.
Please write for terms providing details of expected distribution
numbers per year, required diskettes before and after compression, a
description of the software/hardware and the specific ARJ software to
be used in the distribution.
If you wish to use the archiver ARJ or the conversion program REARJ in
your application software, the pricing is similar to the INTERNAL SITE
LICENSE price schedule. Please write for terms.
RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONAL USE:
To obtain the donation of a SITE LICENSE and/or DISTRIBUTION LICENSE,
please write providing details of your organization's religious and
charitable activities and the intended use for ARJ. A free license
will be provided to qualifying organizations. Qualifications will be
determined on a purely subjective basis. Non-qualifying organizations
can always obtain licenses by purchase.
COMMERCIAL SALE:
Any software dealer or library may distribute the entire ARJ package
without ARJR and DEARJ in an unmodified form for a fee as long as the
price charged for the disk containing ARJ does not exceed US $10.00.
With this single exception, the sale of ARJ or its parts for profit,
either alone or together with other software or hardware, requires a
licensing agreement providing for royalty payments. Please write for
terms.
UNARJ SOURCE CODE:
You may freely use the UNARJ C source code provided the end product is
NOT a file archiver. This source code is intended to promote the
building of utilities to support the use of ARJ and ARJ archives.
The UNARJ.EXE program is built from this source using Turbo C++ 1.0.
UNARJ.EXE may be freely used and freely distributed.
CUSTOM VERSIONS OF ARJ:
Customized versions of ARJ can be licensed. Please write for terms
describing your requirements. Customized versions will take several
weeks or more to build.
ARJ SOURCE CODE:
The ANSI C source code for ARJ may be obtained under a license
arrangement with a non-disclosure policy. I am currently limiting
source licenses to large firms.
Please write for terms.
ARJ-SECURITY ENVELOPE USE:
This feature is intended for but not limited to software developers
who wish to distribute archived software with some assurance that the
archived software in a validated ARJ-SECURED archive will be secure.
I reserve the right to limit the distribution of ARJ-SECURITY serial
numbers.
This feature may ONLY be used by those who have purchased an
ARJ-SECURITY serial number.
Please see the ORDERFRM.DOC or write for terms.
