@subheading Preamble
c33909
c33909
The CentOS Artwork Repository organizes files in a very specific way
c33909
to implement The CentOS Project corporate visual identity. This very
c33909
specific organization of files is part of @command{centos-art.sh}
5c8537
script, a bash script that automate most of the frequent tasks inside
c33909
the repository.
c33909
c33909
The @command{centos-art.sh} script and the organization of files it
c33909
needs to work are not in the public domain; they are copyrighted and
c33909
there are restrictions on their distribution, but these restrictions
c33909
are designed to permit everything that a good cooperating citizen
c33909
would want to do.  What is not allowed is to try to prevent others
c33909
from further sharing any version of this program that they might get
c33909
from you.
c33909
c33909
Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give
c33909
away copies of @command{centos-art.sh} script, that you receive source
c33909
code or else can get it if you want it, that you can change this
c33909
program or use pieces of it in new free programs, and that you know
c33909
you can do these things.
c33909
c33909
To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to
c33909
deprive anyone else of these rights.  For example, if you distribute
c33909
copies of the @command{centos-art.sh} script, you must give the
c33909
recipients all the rights that you have.  You must make sure that
c33909
they, too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must tell them
c33909
their rights.
c33909
c33909
Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone finds
c33909
out that there is no warranty for the @command{centos-art.sh} script.
c33909
If this program is modified by someone else and passed on, we want
c33909
their recipients to know that what they have is not what we
c33909
distributed, so that any problems introduced by others will not
c33909
reflect on our reputation.

@subheading 1. The CentOS Brand
b81f10
b81f10
The CentOS Brand (@pxref{Directories trunk Identity Models Brands}) is
b81f10
the main visual manifestaion of The CentOS Project. The CentOS Project
b81f10
uses The CentOS Brand to connect all its visual manifestions (e.g.,
5c8537
GNU/Linux Distributions, Websites, Stationery, etc.) and, this way, it
5c8537
provides recognition among other similar projects.  
b81f10
b81f10
Both The CentOS Brand and all the visual manifestations that derivate
5c8537
from it are available for you to study and propose improvement around
5c8537
a good citizen's will at The CentOS Community environment, but you are
5c8537
not allowed to redistribute them elsewhere, without the given
5c8537
permission of The CentOS Project.

If you need to redistribute either The CentOS Brand or any the visual
b81f10
manifestatinos that derivate from it, write your intentions to the
b81f10
@email{centos-devel@@centos.org} mailing list.
