<h1>Concord Consortium Software License</h1>

<p>All Concord Consortium software is Copyright (c) 2005, The Concord Consortium, Inc.
10 Concord Crossing, Concord, MA 01742.</p>

<p>All of the software we write is copyrighted under an open source
license called the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). This
means that anyone can have access to the source code and make changes
in it. We do this because open source is a strategy for long-term
support of this software. All our work is grant-supported, so when
the grant runs out, our ability to support the software ends. If a
community of educators starts using this software, then it is in the
interest of all members of the community to maintain and improve it.
Like democracy, this is a risky strategy, but it seems to be better
than any alternatives. Help us make it a success by using the
software to help grow the community of educators dependent on this
wonderful software.</p>

<p>Here is an abbreviated plain English summary of the LGPL license.</p>

<p><strong>This license allows you to use this software and in addition you may
make and distribute copies of this software.</strong></p>

<p>If you distribute copies of this software you may not change the
copyright or license of this software.  You also have the right to
view and modify the source code for this software.  If you modify
this software and distribute it you are required to license your
copyrighted modifications under an LGPL-compatible license and to
make the entire source code for your derivation available to anybody
you distribute the software to.  You also have the right to link this
software with other software with different licensing terms and
distribute the combined software.  In this case you must still
license the any derivations you have made of our software under an
LGPL-compatible license.</p>

<p>This is just a summary of the LGPL license.  The actual license can
