Copyright: MAX is a FREEWARE editor. The copyright remains solely with Ivo Welch/Jens Christensen. This software is protected by U.S. Copyright Law (Title 17 U.S. code). Unauthorized reproduction and/or sales may result in imprisonment of up to one year and fines of up to Dollar 10,000 (17 USC 506). Copyright Infringers may be subject to civil liability. Authorized reproduction and use is only for non-commercial purposes. Specifically, the authors disallow 1) selling MAX, changing or deleting copyright notices (every addition/change to code does not alter the copyright) 2) distributing MAX for more than a reasonable amount which covers redistribution costs (let's say $20.00) and 3) distributing MAX or parts of it not as the full package (to prevent proliferation of changed copies without source, and/or missing contracts, tutorials etc.). Specifically, the authors allow private, non-commercial use and free re-distribution of an infinite amount of copies AS LONG AS MAX is distributed as an entity. This also means that all the original files/contents must be included. Modifications: The user is allowed to modify MAX ( source code is included in the package ) under the restriction that these modifications are not for sale. All modifications are public domain. The authors encourage free distribution of private modifications. Modifications ( to any extent ) do not interfere with the exclusive rights ( i.e. authorship and ownership ) of MAX ( and all rights associated ) by Ivo Welch and Jens Christensen. Again, the user agrees not to modify, or delete the copyright notice, name and version number of MAX. Commercial Usage: Commercial Usage is permitted only for a contribution of $25 minimum per used copy (i.e. per machine). Responsibility: The authors of MAX assume no responsibility for any damage resulting from the use of MAX. The product is supplied "as is." Contract Scope: Violation of the terms of this agreement will result in immediate termination of this contract without refund(s). The authors reserve the right to terminate or modify this contract. Such termination will occur if and only if the authors see compelling reasons ( e.g. violation of the spirit of this contract ) to do so. In this case, any contributions paid by the user will be refunded upon request. Termination: Upon termination of this contract, the user agrees not to use any of his copies of MAX again, and to destroy all of his copies. Distribution: The authors grant the right of re-distribution of MAX as a FREEWARE editor under PC-SIG's standard policies as of April 1986 to PC-SIG. The authors are very grateful to PC-SIG to performing this service. Additions: All additions or modifications may be submitted ( and are appre- ciated ) to PC-SIG or Ivo Welch for inclusion in further distri- butions.
