- HYDRA PROTOCOL LICENSE
-
- You are granted a license to implement the HYDRA file transfer
- protocol, HYDRA hereafter, in your own programs and/or use the sample
- source code and adapt these to your particular situation and needs;
- subject to the following conditions:
-
- - You must refer to it as the HYDRA file transfer protocol, and you
- must give credit to the authors of HYDRA in any information
- screens or literature pertaining to your programs that contains
- other such information (credits, your own copyrights, etc.).
-
- - HYDRA will always remain backwards compatible with previous
- revisions. HYDRA allows for expansion of its features without
- interfering with previous revisions. It is, however, important
- that different people do not expand the protocol in different
- directions. We therefore ask you to contact us if you have any
- needs/ideas regarding HYDRA, so development can be synchronized
- and beneficial to all.
-
- - If your implementation cannot converse with past or future
- revisions as supplied by us, then you must refer to it as "HYDRA
- derived", or as "a variation of HYDRA", or words to that effect.
