All of the files in the "Gnosis XML/Utilities" package may be distributed on unlimited terms in unaltered form; and may be used in their entirety without restriction as to purpose. No warranty is made to the suitability of any content of this package for any purpose, and no liability is assumed by Gnosis Software, Inc, David Mertz, nor by any other contributor to the package. Most of the files in the package are additionally released to the public domain, and no copyright claim is made to their content whatsoever. In other words, for that majority of files that are public domain, you may chop them up as you like, derive works from them, incorporate them into projects/products with other licenses, and in fact do anything you could do with content of your own creation. Giving credit and promoting freedom shows good manners, but are not legal obligations. A few of the files in the package are contractually mandated to remain under copyright. These include, but are not necessarily limited to, articles published about the Gnosis XML/Utilities package or components thereof. Conceivably--but not at the moment of this writing--files such as test cases, data files, or other documentation, will be included that retains a copyright. In general, I would rather simply release these all to the public domain; but anything included that retains copyright may still be used and distributed freely, just not altered (if anyone want to pay me for my time in negotiating releases, let me know). Any files retaining copyright will indicate this within the file itself, in some form appropriate for the file type (e.g. as comments in source code files; in a header line in text files).
