+Open-Source Mod License v1.0
+ A mod (modification) may be placed under this license by or with written
+ permission of the original author of a mod. Once placed under this license,
+ users of the mod must accept terms (a) through (c), and distributors of the
+ mod must accept terms (d) and (f). To submit code to be added to the official
+ version, programmers must accept terms (g) and (h). By using source code taken
+ or derived from a mod under the OSML in a non-derivative mod, you must accept
+ terms (i) and (j). Derivative works of the open-source mod must also be placed
+ under this license.
+
+Terms of Use
+ By installing, compiling, or using in any way a mod placed under the
+ Open-Source Mod License (OSML), you, the end user, agree to all of the
+ following terms of this agreement:
+
+ a. You are granted the right to use, modify for personal use, and study all
+ binaries and source code part of the open-source mod. However, to distribute
+ binaries and/or source code which constitute part of the mod placed under
+ the OSML, this license requires you to agree additionally to terms (d)
+ through (f).
+
+ b. The mod authors, contributors, and distributors expressly disclaim any
+ warranty, expressed or implied, and accepts no responsibility for the
+ quality or reliability of any of its binary or source code components. They
+ accept no responsibility for any damages to you, your computer, or any other
+ property, person, or corporation which results, directly or indirectly, from
+ the downloading of, installation of, compilation of, and use of the mod.
+
+ c. You accept the right of server operators to disallow service to you or
+ any other parties with or without justification. The mod authors and
+ distributors are in no way obligated to resolve disputes between users and
+ server administrators, but may choose to do so at their option.
+
+Terms of Distribution
+ By distributing in any way the mod placed under this license, you, the end
+ use, agree to these additional terms.
+
+ d. Any distributions of the mod must be done purely on a non-commercial
+ basis. All persons receiving said distributions must agree to terms (a)
+ through (c) of this license, and must receive a copy of this license
+ unmodified and in full.
+
+ e. Any distributions of the open-source mod must include or make available
+ all source code. Where said distributions are modified, the source code must
+ be the modified source code which was used to produce the software being
+ distributed, and changes made must be clearly labelled, and it must be
+ clearly labelled as being modified. In cases where source code cannot be
+ included due to constraints of media capacity, a written offer must be
+ included redeemable for said source code.
+
+ f. Redistributed versions must retain all notices of copyright, license,
+ and authorship as they were when received.
+
+Terms of Contribution to Official Version
+ By contributing code to the official version of the mod, you agree to these
+ additional terms.
+
+ g. Changes must be clearly labeled in code, along with the name or nickname
+ of the person who made them, and what the purpose of the changes is.
+
+ h. Code taken from tutorials not written by the contributing person must
+ state clearly that it was taken from a tutorial and who the author of the
+ tutorial is.
+
+Terms For Use of Code in Non-Derivative Works
+ By using computer code taken or derived directly or indirectly from a mod
+ under the OSML in a mod not derived from the mod the source code originated
+ from, you agree to these additional terms.
+
+ i. You may only use code taken from or derived from a mod under the OSML in
+ mods also distributed under the OSML.
+
+ j. You must credit the mod from which source code was taken or derived
+ either in the contributors list (providing the source mod's name and URL),
+ in credits embedded in the mod, or in the mod's readme or manual.
+
+ In the event of a conflict between this license and the license, disclaimers
+ in code, etc of the game being modified, the conflicting parts of this license
+ do not apply. Amendments to this license may be made in the form of future
+ versions. The users, distributors, and contributors may optionally accept such
+ amendments, but are not required to do so.
