-This Academic Free License (the "License") applies to any original work of 
-authorship (the "Original Work") whose owner (the "Licensor") has placed the
-following notice immediately following the copyright notice for the Original
-Work:
+  THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY

-Licensed under the Academic Free License version 2.1
-
-1) Grant of Copyright License. Licensor hereby grants You a
-world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, sublicenseable
-license to do the following:
-
-a) to reproduce the Original Work in copies;
-
-b) to prepare derivative works ("Derivative Works") based upon the Original
-   Work;
-
-c) to distribute copies of the Original Work and Derivative Works to the
-   public;
-
-d) to perform the Original Work publicly; and
-
-e) to display the Original Work publicly.
-
-2) Grant of Patent License. Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide,
-royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, sublicenseable license, under
-patent claims owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in
-the Original Work as furnished by the Licensor, to make, use, sell and
-offer for sale the Original Work and Derivative Works.
-
-3) Grant of Source Code License. The term "Source Code" means the
-preferred form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and
-all available documentation describing how to modify the Original
-Work. Licensor hereby agrees to provide a machine-readable copy of the
-Source Code of the Original Work along with each copy of the Original
-Work that Licensor distributes. Licensor reserves the right to satisfy
-this obligation by placing a machine-readable copy of the Source Code
-in an information repository reasonably calculated to permit
-inexpensive and convenient access by You for as long as Licensor
-continues to distribute the Original Work, and by publishing the
-address of that information repository in a notice immediately
-following the copyright notice that applies to the Original Work.
-
-4) Exclusions From License Grant. Neither the names of Licensor, nor
-the names of any contributors to the Original Work, nor any of their
-trademarks or service marks, may be used to endorse or promote
-products derived from this Original Work without express prior written
-permission of the Licensor. Nothing in this License shall be deemed to
-grant any rights to trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or
-any other intellectual property of Licensor except as expressly stated
-herein. No patent license is granted to make, use, sell or offer to
-sell embodiments of any patent claims other than the licensed claims
-defined in Section 2. No right is granted to the trademarks of
-Licensor even if such marks are included in the Original Work. Nothing
-in this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from
-licensing under different terms from this License any Original Work
-that Licensor otherwise would have a right to license.
-
-5) This section intentionally omitted.
-
-6) Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any
-Derivative Works that You create, all copyright, patent or trademark
-notices from the Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any
-notices of licensing and any descriptive text identified therein as an
-"Attribution Notice." You must cause the Source Code for any
-Derivative Works that You create to carry a prominent Attribution
-Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that You have
-modified the Original Work.
-
-7) Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor
-warrants that the copyright in and to the Original Work and the patent
-rights granted herein by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are
-sublicensed to You under the terms of this License with the permission
-of the contributor(s) of those copyrights and patent rights. Except as
-expressly stated in the immediately proceeding sentence, the Original
-Work is provided under this License on an "AS IS" BASIS and WITHOUT
-WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without limitation,
-the warranties of NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A
-PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL
-WORK IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential
-part of this License. No license to Original Work is granted hereunder
-except under this disclaimer.
-
-8) Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal
-theory, whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or
-otherwise, shall the Licensor be liable to any person for any direct,
-indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any
-character arising as a result of this License or the use of the
-Original Work including, without limitation, damages for loss of
-goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and
-all other commercial damages or losses. This limitation of liability
-shall not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting
-from Licensor's negligence to the extent applicable law prohibits such
-limitation. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or
-limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion
-and limitation may not apply to You.
-
-9) Acceptance and Termination. If You distribute copies of the
-Original Work or a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable effort
-under the circumstances to obtain the express assent of recipients to
-the terms of this License. Nothing else but this License (or another
-written agreement between Licensor and You) grants You permission to
-create Derivative Works based upon the Original Work or to exercise
-any of the rights granted in Section 1 herein, and any attempt to do
-so except under the terms of this License (or another written
-agreement between Licensor and You) is expressly prohibited by
-U.S. copyright law, the equivalent laws of other countries, and by
-international treaty. Therefore, by exercising any of the rights
-granted to You in Section 1 herein, You indicate Your acceptance of
-this License and all of its terms and conditions.
-
-10) Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate
-automatically and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted
-to You by this License as of the date You commence an action,
-including a cross-claim or counterclaim, against Licensor or any
-licensee alleging that the Original Work infringes a patent. This
-termination provision shall not apply for an action alleging patent
-infringement by combinations of the Original Work with other software
-or hardware.
-
-11) Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating
-to this License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction
-wherein the Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary
-business, and under the laws of that jurisdiction excluding its
-conflict-of-law provisions. The application of the United Nations
-Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is
-expressly excluded. Any use of the Original Work outside the scope of
-this License or after its termination shall be subject to the
-requirements and penalties of the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 101
-et seq., the equivalent laws of other countries, and international
-treaty. This section shall survive the termination of this License.
-
-12) Attorneys Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License
-or seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be
-entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including, without
-limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in
-connection with such action, including any appeal of such action. This
-section shall survive the termination of this License.
-
-13) Miscellaneous. This License represents the complete agreement
-concerning the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this License
-is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to
-the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
-
-14) Definition of "You" in This License. "You" throughout this
-License, whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a
-legal entity exercising rights under, and complying with all of the
-terms of, this License. For legal entities, "You" includes any entity
-that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with
-you. For purposes of this definition, "control" means (i) the power,
-direct or indirect, to cause the direction or management of such
-entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty
-percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial
-ownership of such entity.
-
-15) Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not
-otherwise restricted or conditioned by this License or by law, and
-Licensor promises not to interfere with or be responsible for such
-uses by You.
-
-This license is Copyright (C) 2003-2004 Lawrence E. Rosen. All rights
-reserved. Permission is hereby granted to copy and distribute this
-license without modification. This license may not be modified without
-the express written permission of its copyright owner.

-END OF ACADEMIC FREE LICENSE. The following is intended to describe the 
-essential differences between the Academic Free License (AFL) version 1.0
-and other open source licenses:
-
-The Academic Free License is similar to the BSD, MIT, UoI/NCSA and Apache 
-licenses in many respects but it is intended to solve a few problems with 
-those licenses.
-    
-* The AFL is written so as to make it clear what software is being 
-licensed (by the inclusion of a statement following the copyright notice 
-in the software). This way, the license functions better than a template 
-license. The BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses apply to unidentified software.
-    
-* The AFL contains a complete copyright grant to the software. The BSD 
-and Apache licenses are vague and incomplete in that respect.
-    
-* The AFL contains a complete patent grant to the software. The BSD, MIT, 
-UoI/NCSA and Apache licenses rely on an implied patent license and contain 
-no explicit patent grant.
-    
-* The AFL makes it clear that no trademark rights are granted to the 
-licensor's trademarks. The Apache license contains such a provision, but the 
-BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not.
-    
-* The AFL includes the warranty by the licensor that it either owns the 
-copyright or that it is distributing the software under a license. None of 
-the other licenses contain that warranty. All other warranties are disclaimed, 
-as is the case for the other licenses.
-
-* The AFL is itself copyrighted (with the right granted to copy and distribute 
-without modification). This ensures that the owner of the copyright to the 
-license will control changes. The Apache license contains a copyright notice, 
-but the BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not.
