    1818  * You can access to PyKota's source code by using CVS from : 
    1919

    21

    2222    Follow the "CVS Repository" link then follow the instructions in 
    23     the section labeled "Getting a Copy of the CVS Repository". 
     23    the section labeled "Getting a Copy of the CVS Repository".  
    2424 
    2525  * The CVS version will always be labelled as **unofficial** and the  
    2626    word **unofficial** will appear whenever you run PyKota command line  
    27     tools with the --version command line argument, and so I have to  
    28     make a restriction :  
     27    tools with the *--version* command line argument.  
    2928 
    30     YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE TO LABEL A VERSION OF  
    31     PyKota DOWNLOADED FROM CVS AS BEING THE 'OFFICIAL' ONE. 
     29  * I ask you to not label or present a version of PyKota downloaded  
     30    from CVS as being the 'OFFICIAL' one.  
    3231 
    33   * A PyKota version obtained from CVS, i.e. which version number looks  
    34     like *x.xx-unofficial*, **IS FREELY REDISTRIBUTABLE AND MODIFIABLE,  
    35     AT NO COST, UNDER THE TERMS OF THE GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, BUT  
    36     CAN'T BE LABELLED 'OFFICIAL'. THIS MEANS THAT YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED,  
    37     UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TO PUT THE 'OFFICIAL' WORD IN THE VERSION  
    38     NUMBER IF IT IS NOT ALREADY PRESENT.**  
     32  * I encourage you to buy an 'OFFICIAL' PyKota package. See below for  
     33    the benefits of doing so.  
    3934 
    40   * Version number excepted, **THERE'S NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN  
    41     'OFFICIAL' and 'UNOFFICIAL' VERSIONS OF PyKota.** It should be clear  
    42     that I'll answer to all questions, and try to help as much as I can,  
    43     even if you don't want to buy an **'OFFICIAL'** version. But it  
    44     should also be clear to you that the latest version you can find in  
    45     CVS may be somewhat unstable or unfinished, since this software is a  
     35  * A PyKota version obtained either from CVS (unofficial) or by  
     36    purchasing an official package, **IS FREELY REDISTRIBUTABLE AND  
     37    MODIFIABLE, AT NO COST, UNDER THE TERMS OF THE GNU GENERAL PUBLIC  
     38    LICENSE.**  
     39 
     40  * Version number excepted, **THERE'S NO SOURCE CODE DIFFERENCE  
     41    BETWEEN 'OFFICIAL' AND 'UNOFFICIAL' VERSIONS OF PyKota.** However it  
     42    should be clear to you that the latest version you can find in CVS  
     43    may be somewhat unstable or unfinished, since this software is a  
    4644    work in progress, and that it's up to you to download working  
    4745    revisions from the CVS tree. That's why I suggest that you purchase  
    48     an 'OFFICIAL' version, because it will be simpler for you.  
     46    an **'OFFICIAL'** version, because it will be simpler for you (and  
     47    better for me). Also the documentation included in the  
     48    **'UNOFFICIAL'** version is only delivered in DocBook XML/SGML  
     49    source form, and not in compiled forms like HTML or PDF.  
    4950 
    5051  * You can obtain an **'OFFICIAL'** version of PyKota in two forms : 
     
    5859        SGML, HTML and PDF formats, by email.  
    5960 
    60     * CDROM + Paper documentation (not yet available, documentation  
    61       still under works) :  
     61    * CDROM + Paper documentation *(not yet available, documentation  
     62      still under works)* :  
    6263 
    6364      * You pay me any amount of money starting at **30$ (US Dollars)** 
     
    6970        will be asked to you, unless you require a specific delivery mode.  
    7071 
    71   * The purchase of an **'OFFICIAL'**  
    72     version entitles you to :  
     72  * The "purchase":/software/PyKota/Purchase of an **'OFFICIAL'**  
     73    version also allows you to :  
    7374 
    74     * Redistribute the **'OFFICIAL'** version you purchased. But if you  
    75       modify this version before redistribution then I ask you to also  
    76       modify the version number present in the pykota/version.py file to  
    77       label any package you would redistribute as **'UNOFFICIAL'**.  
    78       Unmodified **'OFFICIAL'** packages can be redistributed freely under  
    79       the **'OFFICIAL'** label.  
     75    * Modify or redistribute the **'OFFICIAL'** version you purchased,  
     76      under the terms of the GNU General Public License of the Free  
     77      Software Foundation. I just ask you to remove the 'OFFICIAL' word  
     78      from the version number if you redistribute a modified official  
     79      version.  
    8080 
    8181    * Obtain free technical support for a year starting at your purchase  
    82       date (bug fixes and new official versions)  
     82      date : This includes bug fixes and new official versions, as well as  
     83      priority email support.  
    8384 
    8485    * Obtain half of **your money back** in case you contribute source  
     
    8990      patches on PyKota.*  
    9091 
     92    * By purchasing an official package, your karma will also be better. 
     93 
    9194I sincerely hope that you will find this proposition as fair as I do  
    9295think it is.
