-  LICENSE
-  =======
-
-  This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
-  it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as
-  published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the
-  License, or (at your option) any later version.
-
-  For some people, it is not clear, what is the real intention of the
-  author by using the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) as the
-  distribution license for GNU Pth. This is, because the LGPL and the
-  GPL can be (and are often) interpreted very differently and some
-  interpretations seem to be not compatible with others. So an explicit
-  clarification for the use of the LGPL for GNU Pth from the authors
-  point of view might be useful.
-
-  The author places this library under the LGPL to make sure that it
-  can be used both commercially and non-commercially provided that
-  modifications to the code base are always donated back to the official
-  code base under the same license conditions. Please keep in mind that
-  especially using this library in code not staying under the GPL or
-  the LGPL _is_ allowed and that any taint or license creap into code
-  that uses the library is not the authors intention. It is just the
-  case that _including_ this library into the source tree of other
-  applications is a little bit more inconvinient because of the LGPL.
-  But it has to be this way for good reasons. And keep in mind that
-  inconvinient doesn't mean not allowed or even impossible.
-
-  Even if you want to use this library in some BSD-style licensed
-  packages, this _is_ possible as long as you are a little bit
-  carefully. Usually this means you have to make sure that the code is
-  still clearly separated into the source tree and that modifications to
-  this source area are done under the conditions of the LGPL. Read below
-  for more details on the conditions. Contact the author if you have
-  more questions.
