| 10 | +Vim is Charityware. You can use and copy it as much as you like, but you are |
| 11 | +encouraged to make a donation for needy children in Uganda. Please see |kcc| |
| 12 | +below or visit the ICCF web site, available at these URLs: |

| 17 | + |
| 18 | +You can also sponsor the development of Vim. Vim sponsors can vote for |
| 19 | +features. See |sponsor|. The money goes to Uganda anyway. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +The Open Publication License applies to the Vim documentation, see |
| 22 | +|manual-copyright|. |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +=== begin of license === |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +VIM LICENSE |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +I) There are no restrictions on distributing unmodified copies of Vim except |
| 29 | + that they must include this license text. You can also distribute |
| 30 | + unmodified parts of Vim, likewise unrestricted except that they must |
| 31 | + include this license text. You are also allowed to include executables |
| 32 | + that you made from the unmodified Vim sources, plus your own usage |
| 33 | + examples and Vim scripts. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +II) It is allowed to distribute a modified (or extended) version of Vim, |
| 36 | + including executables and/or source code, when the following four |
| 37 | + conditions are met: |
| 38 | + 1) This license text must be included unmodified. |
| 39 | + 2) The modified Vim must be distributed in one of the following five ways: |
| 40 | + a) If you make changes to Vim yourself, you must clearly describe in |
| 41 | + the distribution how to contact you. When the maintainer asks you |
| 42 | + (in any way) for a copy of the modified Vim you distributed, you |
| 43 | + must make your changes, including source code, available to the |
| 44 | + maintainer without fee. The maintainer reserves the right to |
| 45 | + include your changes in the official version of Vim. What the |
| 46 | + maintainer will do with your changes and under what license they |
| 47 | + will be distributed is negotiable. If there has been no negotiation |
| 48 | + then this license, or a later version, also applies to your changes. |
| 49 | + The current maintainer is Bram Moolenaar < [email protected]>. If this |
| 50 | + changes it will be announced in appropriate places (most likely |
| 51 | + vim.sf.net, www.vim.org and/or comp.editors). When it is completely |
| 52 | + impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to send him |
| 53 | + your changes ceases. Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has |
| 54 | + received your changes they will not have to be sent again. |
| 55 | + b) If you have received a modified Vim that was distributed as |
| 56 | + mentioned under a) you are allowed to further distribute it |
| 57 | + unmodified, as mentioned at I). If you make additional changes the |
| 58 | + text under a) applies to those changes. |
| 59 | + c) Provide all the changes, including source code, with every copy of |
| 60 | + the modified Vim you distribute. This may be done in the form of a |
| 61 | + context diff. You can choose what license to use for new code you |
| 62 | + add. The changes and their license must not restrict others from |
| 63 | + making their own changes to the official version of Vim. |
| 64 | + d) When you have a modified Vim which includes changes as mentioned |
| 65 | + under c), you can distribute it without the source code for the |
| 66 | + changes if the following three conditions are met: |
| 67 | + - The license that applies to the changes permits you to distribute |
| 68 | + the changes to the Vim maintainer without fee or restriction, and |
| 69 | + permits the Vim maintainer to include the changes in the official |
| 70 | + version of Vim without fee or restriction. |
| 71 | + - You keep the changes for at least three years after last |
| 72 | + distributing the corresponding modified Vim. When the maintainer |
| 73 | + or someone who you distributed the modified Vim to asks you (in |
| 74 | + any way) for the changes within this period, you must make them |
| 75 | + available to him. |
| 76 | + - You clearly describe in the distribution how to contact you. This |
| 77 | + contact information must remain valid for at least three years |
| 78 | + after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim, or as long |
| 79 | + as possible. |
| 80 | + e) When the GNU General Public License (GPL) applies to the changes, |
| 81 | + you can distribute the modified Vim under the GNU GPL version 2 or |
| 82 | + any later version. |
| 83 | + 3) A message must be added, at least in the output of the ":version" |
| 84 | + command and in the intro screen, such that the user of the modified Vim |
| 85 | + is able to see that it was modified. When distributing as mentioned |
| 86 | + under 2)e) adding the message is only required for as far as this does |
| 87 | + not conflict with the license used for the changes. |
| 88 | + 4) The contact information as required under 2)a) and 2)d) must not be |
| 89 | + removed or changed, except that the person himself can make |
| 90 | + corrections. |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +III) If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you are encouraged to use |
| 93 | + the Vim license for your changes and make them available to the |
| 94 | + maintainer, including the source code. The preferred way to do this is |
| 95 | + by e-mail or by uploading the files to a server and e-mailing the URL. |
| 96 | + If the number of changes is small (e.g., a modified Makefile) e-mailing a |
| 97 | + context diff will do. The e-mail address to be used is |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +IV) It is not allowed to remove this license from the distribution of the Vim |
| 101 | + sources, parts of it or from a modified version. You may use this |
| 102 | + license for previous Vim releases instead of the license that they came |
| 103 | + with, at your option. |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +=== end of license === |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +Note: |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +- If you are happy with Vim, please express that by reading the rest of this |
| 110 | + file and consider helping needy children in Uganda. |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +- If you want to support further Vim development consider becoming a |
| 113 | + |sponsor|. The money goes to Uganda anyway. |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | +- According to Richard Stallman the Vim license is GNU GPL compatible. |
| 116 | + A few minor changes have been made since he checked it, but that should not |
| 117 | + make a difference. |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +- If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits |
| 120 | + further distribution to the GNU GPL. Also when you didn't actually change |
| 121 | + anything in Vim. |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +- Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all |
| 124 | + further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL or a compatible license. |
| 125 | + |
| 126 | +- If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you can include your name and |
| 127 | + contact information with the "--with-modified-by" configure argument or the |
| 128 | + MODIFIED_BY define. |
| 129 | + |
| 130 | +============================================================================== |
| 131 | +Kibaale Children's Centre *kcc* *Kibaale* *charity* |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +Kibaale Children's Centre (KCC) is located in Kibaale, a small town in the |
| 134 | +south of Uganda, near Tanzania, in East Africa. The area is known as Rakai |
| 135 | +District. The population is mostly farmers. Although people are poor, there |
| 136 | +is enough food. But this district is suffering from AIDS more than any other |
| 137 | +part of the world. Some say that it started there. Estimations are that 10 |
| 138 | +to 30% of the Ugandans are infected with HIV. Because parents die, there are |
| 139 | +many orphans. In this district about 60,000 children have lost one or both |
| 140 | +parents, out of a population of 350,000. And this is still continuing. |
| 141 | + |
| 142 | +The children need a lot of help. The KCC is working hard to provide the needy |
| 143 | +with food, medical care and education. Food and medical care to keep them |
| 144 | +healthy now, and education so that they can take care of themselves in the |
| 145 | +future. KCC works on a Christian base, but help is given to children of any |
| 146 | +religion. |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +The key to solving the problems in this area is education. This has been |
| 149 | +neglected in the past years with president Idi Amin and the following civil |
| 150 | +wars. Now that the government is stable again, the children and parents have |
| 151 | +to learn how to take care of themselves and how to avoid infections. There is |
| 152 | +also help for people who are ill and hungry, but the primary goal is to |
| 153 | +prevent people from getting ill and to teach them how to grow healthy food. |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +Most of the orphans are living in an extended family. An uncle or older |
| 156 | +sister is taking care of them. Because these families are big and the income |
| 157 | +(if any) is low, a child is lucky if it gets healthy food. Clothes, medical |
| 158 | +care and schooling is beyond its reach. To help these needy children, a |
| 159 | +sponsorship program was put into place. A child can be financially adopted. |
| 160 | +For a few dollars a month KCC sees to it that the child gets indispensable |
| 161 | +items, is healthy, goes to school and KCC takes care of anything else that |
| 162 | +needs to be done for the child and the family that supports it. |
| 163 | + |
| 164 | +Besides helping the child directly, the environment where the child grows up |
| 165 | +needs to be improved. KCC helps schools to improve their teaching methods. |
| 166 | +There is a demonstration school at the centre and teacher trainings are given. |
| 167 | +Health workers are being trained, hygiene education is carried out and |
| 168 | +households are stimulated to build a proper latrine. I helped setting up a |
| 169 | +production site for cement slabs. These are used to build a good latrine. |
| 170 | +They are sold below cost price. |
| 171 | + |
| 172 | +There is a small clinic at the project, which provides children and their |
| 173 | +family with medical help. When needed, transport to a hospital is offered. |
| 174 | +Immunization programs are carried out and help is provided when an epidemic is |
| 175 | +breaking out (measles and cholera have been a problem). |
| 176 | + *donate* |
| 177 | +Summer 1994 to summer 1995 I spent a whole year at the centre, working as a |
| 178 | +volunteer. I have helped to expand the centre and worked in the area of water |
| 179 | +and sanitation. I learned that the help that the KCC provides really helps. |
| 180 | +When I came back to Holland, I wanted to continue supporting KCC. To do this |
| 181 | +I'm raising funds and organizing the sponsorship program. Please consider one |
| 182 | +of these possibilities: |
| 183 | + |
| 184 | +1. Sponsor a child in primary school: 17 euro a month (or more). |
| 185 | +2. Sponsor a child in secondary school: 25 euro a month (or more). |
| 186 | +3. Sponsor the clinic: Any amount a month or quarter |
| 187 | +4. A one-time donation |
| 188 | + |
| 189 | +Compared with other organizations that do child sponsorship the amounts are |
| 190 | +very low. This is because the money goes directly to the centre. Less than |
| 191 | +5% is used for administration. This is possible because this is a small |
| 192 | +organization that works with volunteers. If you would like to sponsor a |
| 193 | +child, you should have the intention to do this for at least one year. |
| 194 | + |
| 195 | +How do you know that the money will be spent right? First of all you have my |
| 196 | +personal guarantee as the author of Vim. I trust the people that are working |
| 197 | +at the centre, I know them personally. Furthermore, the centre has been |
| 198 | +co-sponsored and inspected by World Vision, Save the Children Fund and is now |
| 199 | +under the supervision of Pacific Academy Outreach Society. The centre is |
| 200 | +visited about once a year to check the progress (at our own cost). I have |
| 201 | +visited the centre myself many times, starting in 1993. The visit reports are |
| 202 | +on the ICCF web site. |
| 203 | + |
| 204 | +If you have any further questions, send me e-mail: < [email protected]>. |
