This package was debianized by Stephane Bortzmeyer on Thu, 13 Nov 2003 13:28:02 +0100. It was downloaded from http://www.zonecheck.fr/ Copyright: AFNIC, 2003 ZoneCheck is copyright AFNIC, 2003. It is written and maintained by Stephane D'Alu . You can contact AFNIC at , or for technical questions/patches about this software at the following address . The Ruby DNS library (in the lib/ directory) is licenced like Ruby (either GPL or the Ruby licence, see for details). ZoneCheck terms of use and distribution: You can use, modify and distribute ZoneCheck according to the GPL v2 (GNU General Public License) , a copy has been made available in the file /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2. To summarize (a lot!), it means you can use ZoneCheck freely (but not to link it with software which is not GPL-compatible), you can have the source code, you can distribute it freely (even after modifications) BUT you cannot deny these freedoms to the people who receive it: for instance, you must provide them with the source code. Alternatively, if you want to use or distribute a version of ZoneCheck in a way which is not compatible with the GPL you *must* get an agreement from AFNIC which will give you the right to use the following terms. The license is therefore *not* a disjunctive license. To use the "MIT/X11"-like license hereafter, you need a personal agreement with AFNIC. ----------- Terms after relicencing, for the licencee only ---- Permission is hereby granted, to <> obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit individuals or organizations to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
