The disclaimer is substantially abridged from the verbose original.

It is entirely free, and you + may use it and/or redistribute it for whatever purpose you choose; + however, as free software, it is provided without warranty of any + kind, not even the implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for + a particular purpose. + +Whether or not software can be explicitly deposited into the public domain is +legally questionable, so the MPI library must be regarded as being copyrighted +by Michael J. Fromberger. The above text can be reasonably understood to +constitute a license which is compatible with the TXR LICENSE file +in the sense that it is at least as permissive. |
