+The Software Preservation Society ("SPS")
+Licence Agreement (Licence, Copyright and Terms of Use)
+
+SPS technology is exclusively represented and licensed by
+KryoFlux Products & Services Limited, 80 Allington Way, Maidstone,
+ME16 0HN, United Kingdom
+
+
+ATTENTION: READ CAREFULLY: By using, copying, or distributing the
+accompanying software you indicate your acceptance of the following
+SPS Licence Agreement ("Agreement").
+
+
+PREAMBLE
+
+The SPS philosophy dictates that the technology associated with capturing
+floppy disk based software should be provided to "the community" for free
+(free as in "free beer") to the greatest extent possible in order to
+facilitate digital preservation efforts.
+
+This licence enforces that philosophy. 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
