It protects against misuse of +a technology that has been a long time in development and is provided +to the community or anyone else who would like to use it. It also +intends to protect SPS itself from possible legal liability. + + +SPS technology covered by this license can be divided into two categories: + +KRYOFLUX HIGH DEFINITION FLUX SAMPLER FOR USB: Preservation starts at +the ingestion level. SPS therefore has developed a combination of hard +and software targeted at software preservation called KryoFlux. KryoFlux +software may be used for private, non-commercial purposes only. KryoFlux +hardware schematics are provided for private, non-commercial use as well. +Therefore private users can decide to build a KryoFlux board on their own, +as long as the board is used for private purposes only and as long as such +boards are not being sold to others (this includes boards given away for +any kind of compensation). Licenses for commercial, government or academic +use of KryoFlux can be applied for by contacting us at the email at the +bottom of this license. + +CTA SOFTWARE PRESERVATION ANALYSER: This product is the core of SPS +technology and is under constant development since 2001. The Analyser +is used by SPS internally and also available as a commercial product for +institutes, libraries, archives and museums. The Analyser is not free, it +is commercial software. This means that possession or distribution without +a proper licence is breach of international copyright treaties. + + +The IPF support library is covered by a separate license and is +specifically excluded from the terms laid out in this license, available +in the IPF support library distribution. + + +You may notice that this licence is very strict in pursuit of getting +the software into the hands of people who wish to use it for free. You +can not distribute it without written permission, charge to give it to +somebody, not even for media costs. You cannot have it on a CD ROM that is +distributed for payment. You cannot use it as part of providing a service +that receives payment in any form. + +Any source provided (if any) is for inspection, understanding and +safe keeping only. This will ensure that data capture or stored with +SPS technology can still be accessed in the future even if there is +no successor or representative of SPS available. + +Infringement of any of the terms of this licence is breaching +international copyright laws, but it also hurts the communities +benefiting from the technology by risking its future improvement +and availability. + +This licence was not produced for the fun of it, you should note that +only those who could possibly benefit financially are being restricted. +Those people should negotiate an alternative license, which helps fund +future development and our preservation activities. + +If you do not agree with any of the terms in this licence for the +Technology then you are obviously free to choose not to use it. + +The latest version of this licence, libraries and imaging software can be +found on the following sites: + + http://www.softpres.org + + http://www.kryoflux.com + + +It is very easy to comply with this licence: Do not sell, modify or +abuse the software and don't steal code from source provided. Learn, +understand and write your own if you need to. Feel free to ask if you +want to use something you can not create on your own. That's it. +Everything else mentioned is here for those who may not understand +these simple rules. + + +1. CLARIFICATION. The software product and accompanying documentation + (the program's object code, source code and documentation, explicitly + excluding the file format definitions (e.g. but not limited to IPF, + STREAM, DRAFT) included within, are collectively referred to as the + "Technology") is a technology and does not imply any restrictions, + warranty, licence, obligation or any other link or association with + what it may contain (the data ingested or encapsulated by the + Technology is referred to as the "Content"). + + Unless otherwise noted, The Software Preservation Society ("SPS") + does not hold the copyright of the Content, the data being ingested, + reproduced, preserved, represented using the Technology. All copyright + of Content provided using the Technology is held by its respective + owners. Terms and conditions may apply to the Content that do not + affect whatsoever the licence agreement provided with the Technology. + + +2. LICENCE. + + I.
