Copyright 1997-2023,2024 Thomas E. Dickey

This copyright notice must be included in all copies or substantial
portions of Lynx.  It outlines rights and restrictions for Lynx which
override the guidelines given in the COPYING file.

Most of the content of the Lynx release (and corresponding copyright) is
the work of developers on the lynx-dev mailing list, who have agreed to
distribute their work under the terms and conditions of the GNU General
Public License (Version 2).  Note that the License text after the terms
and conditions is advisory in nature, and contains neither terms nor
conditions.  You may choose to follow that advice.

The copyright owners and developers for Lynx grant their express
permission for using any version of these common libraries (which are
known to have problematic licensing issues) with any operating system or
platform, regardless of the manner in which the libraries are
connected to the Lynx program:

        GNUTLS

        libbsd               http://libbsd.freedesktop.org/releases/

        libidn

        OpenSSL              http://www.openssl.org

Additionally, the developers understand that these additional libraries
have no licensing issues.  Permission is in any case granted to use Lynx
without restriction for these as well:

        libbz2               http://www.bzip.org/

        libiconv

        libutf8              http://www.haible.de/bruno/packages-libutf8.html

        nss_compat_ossl      http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Nss_compat_ossl

        zlib                 http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ 

The list given is by no means exhaustive and may not be interpreted to
limit the set of libraries with which Lynx can be used.

The granted right to "use" (besides the obvious ability to run the
program as a user) covers all development activities such as of building,
modifying, distributing modified versions.

Any licensing questions should be directed to the mailing list:

        lynx-dev@nongnu.org

or to the developer/maintainer (Thomas E. Dickey):

        dickey@invisible-island.net
