        &TCAR; organizes files in a very specific way to implement

        &TCPCVI;. This very specific organization of files must be

        considered part of <command>centos-art.sh</command> script, a

        bash script that automate most of the frequent tasks inside

        the repository.

    </para>

    <para>

        The <command>centos-art.sh</command> script and the

        organization of files it needs to work are not in the public

        domain; they are copyrighted and there are restrictions on

        their distribution, but these restrictions are designed to

        permit everything that a good cooperating citizen would want

        to do.  What is not allowed is to try to prevent others from

        further sharing any version of this program that they might

        get from you.

    </para>

    <para>

        Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to

        give away copies of <command>centos-art.sh</command> script

        and the organization of files it needs to work, that you

        receive source code or else can get it if you want it, that

        you can change this program or use pieces of it in new free

        programs, and that you know you can do these things.

    </para>

    <para>

        To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid

        you to deprive anyone else of these rights.  For example, if

        you distribute copies of the <command>centos-art.sh</command>

        script, you must give the recipients all the rights that you

        have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get

        the source code.  And you must tell them their rights.

    </para>

    <para>

        Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that

        everyone finds out that there is no warranty for the

        <command>centos-art.sh</command> script.  If this program is

        modified by someone else and passed on, we want their

        recipients to know that what they have is not what we

        distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will

        not reflect on our reputation.

    </para>

    <para>

        The <command>centos-art.sh</command> script is released as a

        GPL work.  Individual packages used by

        <command>centos-art.sh</command> script include their own

        licenses and the <command>centos-art.sh</command> script

        license applies to all packages that it does not clash with.

        If there is a clash between the

        <command>centos-art.sh</command> script license and individual

        package licenses, the individual package license applies

        instead.
