Administrator Guide

The current maintainer is Bram Moolenaar <[e-mail]>. If this changes it will be announced in appropriate places (most
likely vim.sf.net, ww.vim.org and/or comp.editors). When it is completely impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to
send him your changes ceases. Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has received your changes they will not have to be
sent again.
b) If you have received a modified Vim that was distributed as mentioned under a) you are allowed to further distribute it
unmodified, as mentioned at I). If you make additional changes the text under a) applies to those changes.
c) Provide all the changes, including source code, with every copy of the modified Vim you distribute. This may be done in the
form of a context diff. You can choose what license to use for new code you add. The changes and their license must not
restrict others from making their own changes to the official version of Vim.
d) When you have a modified Vim which includes changes as mentioned under c), you can distribute it without the source code
for the changes if the following three conditions are met:
- The license that applies to the changes permits you to distribute the changes to the Vim maintainer without fee or restriction,
and permits the Vim maintainer to include the changes in the official version of Vim without fee or restriction.
- You keep the changes for at least three years after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim. When the maintainer or
someone who you distributed the modified Vim to asks you (in any way) for the changes within this period, you must make them
available to him.
- You clearly describe in the distribution how to contact you. This contact information must remain valid for at least three years
after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim, or as long as possible.
e) When the GNU General Public License (GPL) applies to the changes, you can distribute the modified Vim under the GNU GPL
version 2 or any later version.
3) A message must be added, at least in the output of the ":version" command and in the intro screen, such that the user of the
modified Vim is able to see that it was modified. When distributing as mentioned under 2)e) adding the message is only required
for as far as this does not conflict with the license used for the changes.
4) The contact information as required under 2)a) and 2)d) must not be removed or changed, except that the person himself
can make corrections.
III) If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you are encouraged to use the Vim license for your changes and make them
available to the maintainer, including the source code. The preferred way to do this is by e-mail or by uploading the files to a
server and e-mailing the URL. If the number of changes is small (e.g., a modified Makefile) e-mailing a context diff will do. The
e-mail address to be used is <[e-mail]>
IV) It is not allowed to remove this license from the distribution of the Vim sources, parts of it or from a modified version. You
may use this license for previous Vim releases instead of the license that they came with, at your option.
Note:
- If you are happy with Vim, please express that by reading the rest of this file and consider helping needy children in Uganda.
- If you want to support further Vim development consider becoming a |sponsor|. The money goes to Uganda anyway.
- According to Richard Stallman the Vim license is GNU GPL compatible. A few minor changes have been made since he
checked it, but that should not make a difference.
- If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits further distribution to the GNU GPL. Also when you
didn't actually change anything in Vim.
- Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL
or a compatible license.
- If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you can include your name and contact information with the "--with-modified-by"
configure argument or the MODIFIED_BY define.
