    <para>The CentOS Artwork Repository organizes files in a very
e935c3
    specific way to implement The CentOS Project corporate visual
e935c3
    identity. This very specific organization of files is part of
e935c3
    <command>centos-art.sh</command> script, a bash script that
e935c3
    automate most of the frequent tasks inside the repository.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>The <command>centos-art.sh</command> script and the
e935c3
    organization of files it needs to work are not in the public
e935c3
    domain; they are copyrighted and there are restrictions on their
e935c3
    distribution, but these restrictions are designed to permit
e935c3
    everything that a good cooperating citizen would want to do.  What
e935c3
    is not allowed is to try to prevent others from further sharing
e935c3
    any version of this program that they might get from you.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right
e935c3
    to give away copies of <command>centos-art.sh</command> script,
e935c3
    that you receive source code or else can get it if you want it,
e935c3
    that you can change this program or use pieces of it in new free
e935c3
    programs, and that you know you can do these things.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to
e935c3
    forbid you to deprive anyone else of these rights.  For example,
e935c3
    if you distribute copies of the <command>centos-art.sh</command>
e935c3
    script, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.
e935c3
    You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
e935c3
    code.  And you must tell them their rights.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that
e935c3
    everyone finds out that there is no warranty for the
e935c3
    <command>centos-art.sh</command> script.  If this program is
e935c3
    modified by someone else and passed on, we want their recipients
e935c3
    to know that what they have is not what we distributed, so that
e935c3
    any problems introduced by others will not reflect on our
e935c3
    reputation.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>The centos-art.sh script is released as a GPL work.
e935c3
    Individual packages used by centos-art.sh script include their own
e935c3
    licenses and the centos-art.sh script license applies to all
e935c3
    packages that it does not clash with.  If there is a clash between
e935c3
    the centos-art.sh script license and individual package licenses,
e935c3
    the individual package license applies instead.</para>
e935c3
    
e935c3
    <para>The precise conditions of the license for the
e935c3
    <command>centos-art.sh</command> script are found in the 
e935c3
    linkend="licenses-gpl-chapter" />. This manual specifically is
e935c3
    covered by the <xref linkend="licenses-gfdl-chapter" />.</para>
