- WARRANTY
-
- There is no warranty for LaTeX2e, to the extent permitted by
- applicable law. Except when otherwise stated in writing, the LaTeX3
- project provides the program `as is' without warranty of any kind,
- either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the

- purpose. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the
- program is with you. Should the program prove defective, you assume

-
- In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing
- will the LaTeX3 project, or any of the individual authors named above,
- be liable to you for damages, including any general, special,
- incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or
- inability to use the program (including but not limited to loss of
- data or data being rendered inaccurate or losses sustained by you or
- third parties or a failure of the program to operate with any other
- programs), even if such holder or other party has been advised of the

-
- DISTRIBUTION
-
- You are NOT ALLOWED to take money for the distribution or use of
- these files except for a nominal charge for copying, etc.
-
- Redistribution of unchanged files is allowed provided that all files
- listed in the manifest file are distributed including this copyright
- file.
-
- If you receive only some of these files from someone, complain!
-
- However, if these files are distributed by established suppliers as
- part of a complete TeX distribution, and the structure of the
- distribution would make it difficult to distribute the whole set of
- files, *those parties* are allowed to distribute only some of the
- files provided that it is made clear that the user will get a
- complete distribution-set upon request to that supplier (not us).
-
- Note that this permission is not granted to the end user.
-
- The generation of changed versions of the files included in the
- LaTeX2e system is allowed under the following restrictions:
-
- * It is allowed only if the copyright notice in the file does not
- forbid it.
-
- * You rename the file before you make any changes to it.
-
- * You acknowledge the origin of the original version in the file and
- keep the information that it (or a changed version) has to be
- distributed under the restrictions mentioned in this file.
-
- * You change the ERROR REPORT address so that we do not get error
- reports for files *not* maintained by us.
-
- * You provide the user with information how to obtain the original
- package or, even better, distribute it with your files.
-
- * You make sure that the changed versions contain a notice that
- prohibits others from charging money for the distribution or use of
- your files, i.e. they have to be distributed under the restrictions
- mentioned in this file.
-
- * You inform us that you created a changed version of the files.
- This is only necessary if you want to distribute it to others.
-
- These restrictions do *not* apply to the LaTeX configuration files
- ending with .cfg.
