MOLMOL is a molecular graphics program for displaying, analysing, and
|
|
manipulating the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules,
|
|
with special emphasis on the study of protein or DNA structures determined
|
|
by NMR. The following is legal information pertaining to the use of the
|
|
MOLMOL program. It applies to all MOLMOL source files, executable (binary)
|
|
files, configuration files, documentation files contained in the official
|
|
MOLMOL archives. (Certain portions refer to custom versions of the
|
|
software, there are specific rules listed below for these versions also.)
|
|
All of these are referred to here as "the software".

MOLMOL. This legal document was created so these goals could be realized.
|
|
You are legally bound to follow these rules, but we hope you will follow
|
|
them as a matter of ethics, rather than fear of litigation.
|
|

|
their own personal use in any fashion they see fit. What you do with the

|
|
|
|
If the user wishes to distribute a modified version of the software,

|
|
software other than a custom version of MOLMOL without the explicit
|
|
permission of the copyright holders. However authors who contribute source

|
|
purpose as described below.
|
|
|
|
The user is encouraged to send enhancements and bug fixes to the MOLMOL
|
|
authors, but the authors are in no way required to utilize these
|
|
enhancements or fixes. By sending material to the authors, the contributor
|
|
asserts that he owns the materials or has the right to distribute these
|
|
materials. He authorizes the MOLMOL authors to use the materials any way
|
|
they like. The contributor still retains rights to the donated material,
|
|
but by donating you grant equal rights to the MOLMOL authors. The MOLMOL
|
|
authors don't have to use the material, but if we do, you do not acquire
|
|
any rights related to MOLMOL. We will give you credit if applicable.

|
|
|
These archives must not be re-archived using a different method without the
|
|
explicit permission of the authors. You may rename the archives only to

DEFINITION OF "FULL PACKAGE"
|
|
|
|
MOLMOL is contained in 3 archives for each hardware platform. 1) An
|
|
executable archive, 2) A documentation archive, 3) Source code archive.
|
|
|
|
A "full package" is defined as one of the following bundle options:
|
|
1 All archives (executable, docs, source)
|
|
2 User archives (executable, docs but no source)
|
|
3 Programmer archives (source, docs but no executable)
|
|
|
|
MOLMOL is officially distributed for SGI running IRIX; Sun running SunOS;
|
|
IBM running AIX; and DEC running Digital UNIX. Other systems may be added
|
|
in the future.
|
|
|
|
Distributors need not support all platforms but for each platform you
|
|
support you must distribute a full package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
