-Most of the files included in this project are in the public domain,
-and therefore have no license requirement and no restrictions on
-copying or usage. The two exceptions are:
-
-- docutils/roman.py, copyright 2001 by Mark Pilgrim, licensed under the
- `Python 2.1.1 license`_.
-
-- test/difflib.py, copyright by the Python Software Foundation,
- licensed under the `Python 2.2 license`_. This file is included for
- compatibility with Python versions less than 2.2; if you have Python
- 2.2 or higher, difflib.py is not needed and may be removed. (It's
- only used to report test failures anyhow; it isn't installed
- anywhere. The included file is a pre-generator version of the
- difflib.py module included in Python 2.2.)
-
-(Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer.) The Python license is OSI-approved_
-and GPL-compatible_. Although complicated by multiple owners and lots
-of legalese, it basically lets you copy, use, modify, and redistribute
-files as long as you keep the copyright attribution intact, note any
-changes you make, and don't use the owner's name in vain.
