Redistribution in full or in -part, or creation of derivative works is permitted including the use of -all or part of the material in a commercial package. The first three -clauses that control redistribution follow the well-established BSD -license. The fourth clause is present for two reasons: - -* Parts of the existing code base in the software package that this license is - applied to require Aldor.org to make any updates available to the initial - contributors. The clause is there to give Aldor.org the right to do this. - -* It reserves for major contributors, through Aldor.org, greater flexibility to - create and exploit potential future software based on this work, and protects - them where they have existing non-open software that is related to or shares - some code with this work. - -When part or all of the code licensed here is incorporated into a distinct work -our intent is not to lay claim to rights to the larger work as a whole: we just -assert rights over the changes to the Aldor.org software developed in the -process of making it fit to be embedded in the new context. - -This does not give Aldor.org (or anybody else) exclusive rights to changes. -The license permits (and Aldor.org encourages) those who make changes to -distribute the whole of their work in source form thus giving everybody (not -just Aldor.org) rights to make commercial or non-commercial use of everything. - -Typical programs compiled with the Aldor compiler contain portions of the -Aldor distribution (e.g. code inlined or linked from the library or run-time -system). Aldor.org does not wish to limit the distribution of programs -compiled with the Aldor compiler even though these may incidentally contain -portions of such object code from the library or run-time system. - - - Aldor.org.
