     a. You must include this license document in the distribution.
     
     b. You must ensure that all recipients of the machine-executable
     forms are also able to receive the complete machine-readable source
     code to the distributed Software, including all modifications,
     without any charge beyond the costs of data transfer, and place
     prominent notices in the distribution explaining this.
     
     c. You must ensure that all modifications included in the
     machine-executable forms are available under the terms of this
     license.

     machine-readable source code to the items without any charge beyond
     the costs of data transfer.
     
     b. You must explicitly license all recipients of your items to use
     and re-distribute original and modified versions of the items in
     both machine-executable and source code forms. The recipients must
     be able to do so without any charges whatsoever, and they must be
     able to re-distribute to anyone they choose.
     
     c. If the items are not available to the general public, and the
     initial developer of the Software requests a copy of the items,
     then you must supply one.

   liable for any damages whatsoever, including - but not restricted to -
   lost revenue or profits or other direct, indirect, special, incidental
   or consequential damages, even if they have been advised of the
   possibility of such damages, except to the extent invariable law, if
