  18.  
  19. The above usage is granted to you as long as this license remains intact for all original or derived code. Please include a copy of this license with the code, or provide a link to this document, just to make sure everyone's as cool as you.
  20. Ownership
  21.  
  22. This license specifically prohibits you from claiming the the code or compiled binaries are yours without permission from the previous author(s).
  23. Non-Commercial Status
  24.  
  25. You are expressly prohibited from making or trying to make money from the code, derivatives of the code, compiled portions of the code, etc etc.
  26.  
  27. This license specifically prohibits you from using AdF.ly or AdF.ly clones (any "click past an ad before you can download" service) to make money or attempt to make money for clicks or downloads.
  28.  
  29. Specific exceptions to the non-commercial nature of this license are granted to any derivative works of art. Here's some specific exemptions:
  30.  
  31. If you make a cool tee-shirt design based off the code and want to sell that, it's completely ok.
  32. Want to use the the code or compiled binaries as part of a charity event? Go ahead.
  33. Make money from Let's Play videos or other "commentary" type uses, eg reviews or how-to videos/tutorials? No problem.

  35. Ultimately, your work is your own. This license is designed to protect against jerks trying to make money off someone else's work. Any exemptions not listed here require permission from the code author.
  36.  
  37. My Encouragement
  38. Feel free to, take this and learn from it! Create addon mods that depend on it! If you see something we can improve, tell us. Submit a Pull Request. The one catch: don't steal! A lot of effort has gone into this, and if you were to take this and call it your own, you'd basically be a big jerk.
  39.  
  40. Don't be a jerk.
  41.  
  42. Damages
  43. This license prohibits any attempt to hold the author liable for damages caused by usage of the the code or compiled binaries. Bugs happen, so make backups, and don't complain if your world gets corrupted. Seriously, make backups.
  44. Reserved Rights
  45.  
  46. I reserve the right to change this license at any time, although chances are I won't, because legalese annoys me.
  47. Conclusion
  48.  
  49. Ultimately, don't be a jerk, play nice, be polite, and you'll be fine.
