|Comment=
 
 
 
The Open Font License (including its original release, version 1.0) is
 
a free copyleft license for fonts. Its only unusual requirement is
 
that fonts be distributed with some computer program, rather than
 
alone. Since a simple Hello World program will satisfy the
 
requirement, it is harmless. Neither we nor SIL recommend the use of
 
this license for anything other than fonts.

SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE
 
 
 
Version 1.1 - 26 February 2007
 
PREAMBLE
 
 
 
The goals of the Open Font License (OFL) are to stimulate worldwide
 
development of collaborative font projects, to support the font
 
creation efforts of academic and linguistic communities, and to
 
provide a free and open framework in which fonts may be shared and
 
improved in partnership with others.
 
 
 
The OFL allows the licensed fonts to be used, studied, modified and
 
redistributed freely as long as they are not sold by themselves. The
 
fonts, including any derivative works, can be bundled, embedded,
 
redistributed and/or sold with any software provided that any reserved
 
names are not used by derivative works. The fonts and derivatives,
 
however, cannot be released under any other type of license. The
 
requirement for fonts to remain under this license does not apply to
 
any document created using the fonts or their derivatives.
 
DEFINITIONS
 
 
 
"Font Software" refers to the set of files released by the Copyright
 
Holder(s) under this license and clearly marked as such. This may
 
include source files, build scripts and documentation.
 
 
 
"Reserved Font Name" refers to any names specified as such after the
 
copyright statement(s).
 
 
 
"Original Version" refers to the collection of Font Software
 
components as distributed by the Copyright Holder(s).
 
 
 
"Modified Version" refers to any derivative made by adding to,
 
deleting, or substituting — in part or in whole — any of the
 
components of the Original Version, by changing formats or by porting
 
the Font Software to a new environment.
 
 
 
"Author" refers to any designer, engineer, programmer, technical
 
writer or other person who contributed to the Font Software.
 
PERMISSION & CONDITIONS
 
 
 
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining
 
a copy of the Font Software, to use, study, copy, merge, embed,
 
modify, redistribute, and sell modified and unmodified copies of the
 
Font Software, subject to the following conditions:
 
 
 
1) Neither the Font Software nor any of its individual components, in
 
Original or Modified Versions, may be sold by itself.
 
 
 
2) Original or Modified Versions of the Font Software may be bundled,
 
redistributed and/or sold with any software, provided that each copy
 
contains the above copyright notice and this license. These can be
 
included either as stand-alone text files, human-readable headers or
 
in the appropriate machine-readable metadata fields within text or
 
binary files as long as those fields can be easily viewed by the user.
 
 
 
3) No Modified Version of the Font Software may use the Reserved Font
 
Name(s) unless explicit written permission is granted by the
 
corresponding Copyright Holder. This restriction only applies to the
 
primary font name as presented to the users.
 
 
 
4) The name(s) of the Copyright Holder(s) or the Author(s) of the Font
 
Software shall not be used to promote, endorse or advertise any
 
Modified Version, except to acknowledge the contribution(s) of the
 
Copyright Holder(s) and the Author(s) or with their explicit written
 
permission.
 
 
 
5) The Font Software, modified or unmodified, in part or in whole,
 
must be distributed entirely under this license, and must not be
 
distributed under any other license. The requirement for fonts to
 
remain under this license does not apply to any document created using
 
the Font Software.  TERMINATION
 
 
 
This license becomes null and void if any of the above conditions are
 
not met. 
 
 
 
DISCLAIMER
 
 
 
THE FONT SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
 
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF
 
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT
 
OF COPYRIGHT, PATENT, TRADEMARK, OR OTHER RIGHT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
 
COPYRIGHT HOLDER BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY,
 
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
 
DAMAGES, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING
 
FROM, OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE FONT SOFTWARE OR FROM
 
OTHER DEALINGS IN THE FONT SOFTWARE.
