@subheading Preamble
b32b45
b32b45
The CentOS Artwork Repository organizes files in a very specific way
b32b45
to implement The CentOS Project corporate visual identity. This very
b32b45
specific organization of files is part of @command{centos-art.sh}
b32b45
script, a bash script that automate most of the frequent tasks inside
b32b45
the repository.
b32b45
b32b45
The @command{centos-art.sh} script and the organization of files it
b32b45
needs to work are not in the public domain; they are copyrighted and
b32b45
there are restrictions on their distribution, but these restrictions
b32b45
are designed to permit everything that a good cooperating citizen
b32b45
would want to do.  What is not allowed is to try to prevent others
b32b45
from further sharing any version of this program that they might get
b32b45
from you.
b32b45
b32b45
Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give
b32b45
away copies of @command{centos-art.sh} script, that you receive source
b32b45
code or else can get it if you want it, that you can change this
b32b45
program or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know
b32b45
you can do these things.
b32b45
b32b45
To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to
b32b45
deprive anyone else of these rights.  For example, if you distribute
b32b45
copies of the @command{centos-art.sh} script, you must give the
b32b45
recipients all the rights that you have.  You must make sure that
b32b45
they, too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must tell them
b32b45
their rights.
b32b45
b32b45
Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone finds
b32b45
out that there is no warranty for the @command{centos-art.sh} script.
b32b45
If this program is modified by someone else and passed on, we want
b32b45
their recipients to know that what they have is not what we
b32b45
distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will not
b32b45
reflect on our reputation.

@subheading 1. The CentOS Brand
b32b45
b32b45
The CentOS Brand (@pxref{Directories trunk Identity Models Brands}) is
b32b45
the main visual manifestaion of The CentOS Project. The CentOS Project
b32b45
uses The CentOS Brand to connect all its visual manifestions (e.g.,
b32b45
GNU/Linux Distributions, Websites, Stationery, etc.) and, this way, it
b32b45
provides recognition among other similar projects.  
b32b45
b32b45
Both The CentOS Brand and all the visual manifestations that derivate
b32b45
from it are available for you to study and propose improvement around
b32b45
a good citizen's will at The CentOS Community environment, but you are
b32b45
not allowed to redistribute them elsewhere, without the given
b32b45
permission of The CentOS Project.
b32b45
b32b45
If you need to redistribute either The CentOS Brand or any the visual
b32b45
manifestatinos that derivate from it, write your intentions to the
b32b45
@email{centos-devel@@centos.org} mailing list.
