-(1) All source code and documentation included in this archive must be
+with extreme caution. Please read the following notice
 
-    included, unmodified, in any distribution. In particular, this

+TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION, AND MODIFICATION
 
-(4) You may place this program on bulletin boards or on-line services (even
 
-    those which charge a fee for downloads) but ONLY if you clearly indicate
 
-    that this is an experimental version of MiNT, of interest only to
+1. Redistribution and use of unmodified verbatim copies of MiNT (in either
 
-    programmers, and provided further that no executable version of this
+source or binary forms) are permitted, provided that the above copyright
 
-    software is included as an additional file under clause (2). The reason
+notices and this documentation are distributed along with all such copies
 
-    for this is simple -- I cannot support this version of MiNT, so I want
+of MiNT.
 
-    only people who have access to compilers and who are comfortable with
 
-    using source code to download it.
 
+2. Redistribution of modified copies of the source code of MiNT, or
 
+of binaries compiled from such modified copies, is permitted under
 
-WARNING: This program does some very low level things to your computer.
+the terms of paragraph 1 above, provided also that the following
 
-MiNT works well on my machine, and I trust my data to it. But
+conditions are adhered to:
 
-then, I make regular backups, so even if a horrible bug in MiNT that
 
-I haven't found yet trashes my hard drive, I won't lose much. You'll
 
-have to decide for yourself about trusting your data to MiNT. I would
+    a) all modified files must carry prominent notices stating that
 
-certainly recommend regular backups in any event.
+    the files have been changed, and the date of any change; and
 
 
 
-THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE.
+    b) any binary compiled from a modified version of the MiNT source
 
-MiNT COMES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, NOT EVEN AN IMPLIED WARRANTY
+    code must, when executed, print a notice stating that it is
 
-OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE),
+    a modified version of MiNT; and
 
-NOR WILL I BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES INCURRED FROM THE USE OF IT.
 
-USE ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
+
+    c) any work that is based in whole or in part on MiNT must be
+
+    licensed, at no charge, to all third parties under the terms
+
+    of this license. Mere aggregation of a work with another work
+
+    based upon MiNT does not cause it to fall under this clause.
+
+
+
+In plain English: (1) means you can copy unmodified versions of MiNT,
+
+with the only restriction being that you must preserve copyright
+
+notices, and include a copy of this file. (2) Means that if you
+
+modify your version of MiNT, you can redistribute it as long as
+
+you keep the original copyright notices (including this file),
+
+you clearly indicate that it is a modified version, and you agree
+
+that anyone you give it to can also give it away. If you bundle
+
+MiNT (or a modified version of MiNT) with another program, that
+
+other program does not fall under the terms of this license, but
+
+the copy of MiNT (or the modified version of MiNT) does, and hence
+
+must remain freely copyable.
