Scid Copyright Notice

All the files that comprise Scid (except a few contributed files, see
below) are copyright (C) 1999-2003 Shane Hudson and are distributed under
the terms of the Gnu General Public License (GPL), a popular license
used for free software. A copy of the GPL is provided below. As I
understand the GPL, it basically means you can distribute Scid freely,
and may modify it, but any modifications you make must also be made
freely available as source code under the terms of the GPL.

The only files in Scid NOT distributed under the GPL (since they have
a different author and copyright, but they are freely distributable)
are the Zlib library (see the src/zlib directory), a Tcl package
for sending email using SMTP (see the tcl/ezsmtp directory), and
endgame tablebase decoding source code (see the src/egtb directory).

Please note: although there is no explicit copyright notice in the
tablebase decoding code, all rights are reserved by its author
Eugene Nalimov and you should ask for permission before using it.
He has granted permission for its distribution in Scid, and out of
courtesy I ask that if you make use of the tablebase code outside
of Scid, please ask Eugene first. His email address is at the end of
the file src/egtb/probe.txt.

Please note that all the Scid programs and source code are provided
with absolutely no warranty of any kind.
