| 12 | + ---------------------------- |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +The KLH10 Auxiliary Distribution consists of all the components (both |
| 15 | +software and documentation) residing in the "contrib" and "run" |
| 16 | +directories of a typical installation of the KLH10 Distribution. |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +The KLH10 Distribution license does NOT apply to these components. |
| 19 | +They are derived from several sources, each of which may have its own |
| 20 | +licensing terms. They are included solely for the convenience of |
| 21 | +users, and in order to avoid licensing conflicts have been made |
| 22 | +available in the form of a separate "Auxiliary Distribution" package. |
| 23 | +They are subject to removal if their inclusion causes any legal |
| 24 | +problems. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +The Auxiliary Distribution package includes the following specific |
| 27 | +components: |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +[1] PDP-10 software (bootstrap and diagnostic binaries) from Digital |
| 30 | + Equipment Corporation (now Compaq Corporation). These may be used |
| 31 | + only with a valid Digital license such as the "Home Hobbyist License" |
| 32 | + (see <http://pdp-10.trailing-edge.com/#license>). |
| 33 | + The specific components are identified by various README files in |
| 34 | + the following subdirectories. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + run/dfkfb/ - Digital (KL10) DFKFB timing test diagnostic binary |
| 37 | + run/klnic/ - Digital (KL10 SRI-NIC) bootstrap binaries |
| 38 | + run/klt10/ - Digital (KL10 TOPS-10) bootstrap binaries |
| 39 | + run/klt20/ - Digital (KL10 TOPS-20) bootstrap binaries |
| 40 | + run/kst10/ - Digital (KS10 TOPS-10) bootstrap binaries |
| 41 | + run/kst20/ - Digital (KS10 TOPS-20) bootstrap binaries |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +[2] PDP-10 software derived from the MIT ITS systems. These are |
| 45 | + believed to be usable on terms similar to those of the GNU Public |
| 46 | + License. |
| 47 | + The specific components are listed in the file "run/ksits/README". |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | + run/ksits/ - MIT (KS10 ITS) system binaries |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +[3] Utility software from other contributors, where terms were not |
| 53 | + specifically stated but are believed to be similar to those of |
| 54 | + the "BSD" style licenses (e.g. FreeBSD, NetBSD). |
| 55 | + More detail is provided in the file "contrib/README" and the |
| 56 | + individual subdirectories. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + contrib/supdup/ - Unix SUPDUP client and server |
| 59 | + contrib/read20/ - Unix DUMPER tape image reader |
| 60 | + |

| 72 | + ---------------------------- |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +To reiterate: If there is any likelihood that your intended use may |
| 75 | +violate any of the licensing terms of the separate components, you |
| 76 | +should NOT use them. If any of the original copyright holders object |
| 77 | +to this packaging, I will remove the offending components or simply |
| 78 | +stop providing the Auxiliary Distribution altogether. |
