In plain English:
|
||||
|
||||
1. We don't promise that this software works. (But if you find any bugs,
|
||||
please let us know!)
|
||||
2. You can use this software for whatever you want. You don't have to pay us.
|
||||
3. You may not pretend that you wrote this software. If you use it in a
|
||||
program, you must acknowledge somewhere in your documentation that
|
||||
you've used the IJG code.
|
||||
|
||||
In legalese:
|
||||
|
||||
The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation, either express or implied,
|
||||
with respect to this software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or
|
||||
fitness for a particular purpose. This software is provided "AS IS", and you,
|
||||
its user, assume the entire risk as to its quality and accuracy.
|
||||
|
||||
This software is copyright (C) 1991-1998, Thomas G. Lane.
|
||||
All Rights Reserved except as specified below.
|
||||
|
||||
Permission is hereby granted to use, copy, modify, and distribute this
|
||||
software (or portions thereof) for any purpose, without fee, subject to these
|
||||
conditions:
|
||||
(1) If any part of the source code for this software is distributed, then this
|
||||
README file must be included, with this copyright and no-warranty notice
|
||||
unaltered; and any additions, deletions, or changes to the original files
|
||||
must be clearly indicated in accompanying documentation.
|
||||
(2) If only executable code is distributed, then the accompanying
|
||||
documentation must state that "this software is based in part on the work of
|
||||
the Independent JPEG Group".
|
||||
(3) Permission for use of this software is granted only if the user accepts
|
||||
full responsibility for any undesirable consequences; the authors accept
|
||||
NO LIABILITY for damages of any kind.
|
||||
|
||||
These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the IJG code,
|
||||
not just to the unmodified library. If you use our work, you ought to
|
||||
acknowledge us.
|
||||
|
||||
Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG author's name or company name
|
||||
in advertising or publicity relating to this software or products derived from
|
||||
it. This software may be referred to only as "the Independent JPEG Group's
|
||||
software".
|
||||
|
||||
We specifically permit and encourage the use of this software as the basis of
|
||||
commercial products, provided that all warranty or liability claims are
|
||||
assumed by the product vendor.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by permission of L. Peter Deutsch,
|
||||
sole proprietor of its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Menlo Park, CA.
|
||||
ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the above copyright and conditions, but instead
|
||||
by the usual distribution terms of the Free Software Foundation; principally,
|
||||
that you must include source code if you redistribute it. (See the file
|
||||
ansi2knr.c for full details.) However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part
|
||||
of any program generated from the IJG code, this does not limit you more than
|
||||
the foregoing paragraphs do.
|
||||
|
||||
The Unix configuration script "configure" was produced with GNU Autoconf.
|
||||
It is copyright by the Free Software Foundation but is freely distributable.
|
||||
The same holds for its supporting scripts (config.guess, config.sub,
|
||||
ltconfig, ltmain.sh). Another support script, install-sh, is copyright
|
||||
by M.I.T. but is also freely distributable.
|
||||
|
||||
It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG spec is covered by
|
||||
patents owned by IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence arithmetic coding cannot
|
||||
legally be used without obtaining one or more licenses. For this reason,
|
||||
support for arithmetic coding has been removed from the free JPEG software.
|
||||
(Since arithmetic coding provides only a marginal gain over the unpatented
|
||||
Huffman mode, it is unlikely that very many implementations will support it.)
|
||||
So far as we are aware, there are no patent restrictions on the remaining
|
||||
code.
|
||||
|
||||
The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF files.
|
||||
To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent, GIF reading support has
|
||||
been removed altogether, and the GIF writer has been simplified to produce
|
||||
"uncompressed GIFs". This technique does not use the LZW algorithm; the
|
||||
resulting GIF files are larger than usual, but are readable by all standard
|
||||
GIF decoders.
|
||||
|
||||
We are required to state that
|
||||
"The Graphics Interchange Format(c) is the Copyright property of
|
||||
CompuServe Incorporated. GIF(sm) is a Service Mark property of
|
||||
CompuServe Incorporated."
