+I don't like licenses, because I don't like having to worry about all this
+legal stuff just for a simple piece of software I don't really mind anyone
+using. But I also believe that it's important that people share and give back;
+so I'm placing this work under the following license.

+
+However, if you want to be "buena onda", you should:
+
+1. Not take credit for it, and give proper recognition to the authors.
+2. Share your modifications, so everybody benefits from them.
+4. Do something nice for the authors.
+5. Help someone who needs it: sign up for some volunteer work or help your
+   neighbour paint the house.
+6. Don't waste. Anything, but specially energy that comes from natural
+   non-renewable resources. Extra points if you discover or invent something
+   to replace them.
+7. Be tolerant. Everything that's good in nature comes from cooperation.

-
-This Open Software License (the "License") applies to any original work of
-authorship (the "Original Work") whose owner (the "Licensor") has placed the
-following licensing notice adjacent to the copyright notice for the Original
-Work:
-
-	Licensed under the Open Software License version 3.0
-
-1. Grant of Copyright License. Licensor grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
-non-exclusive, sublicensable license, for the duration of the copyright, to do
-the following:
-
- 1. to reproduce the Original Work in copies, either alone or as part of a
-    collective work;
-
- 2. to translate, adapt, alter, transform, modify, or arrange the Original
-    Work, thereby creating derivative works ("Derivative Works") based upon
-    the Original Work;
-
- 3. to distribute or communicate copies of the Original Work and Derivative
-    Works to the public, with the proviso that copies of Original Work or
-    Derivative Works that You distribute or communicate shall be licensed
-    under this Open Software License;
-
- 4. to perform the Original Work publicly; and
-
- 5. to display the Original Work publicly.
-
-2. Grant of Patent License. Licensor grants You a worldwide, royalty-free,
-non-exclusive, sublicensable license, under patent claims owned or controlled
-by the Licensor that are embodied in the Original Work as furnished by the
-Licensor, for the duration of the patents, to make, use, sell, offer for sale,
-have made, and import the Original Work and Derivative Works.
-
-3. Grant of Source Code License. The term "Source Code" means the preferred
-form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and all available
-documentation describing how to modify the Original Work. Licensor agrees to
-provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Original Work along
-with each copy of the Original Work that Licensor distributes. Licensor
-reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing a machine-readable
-copy of the Source Code in an information repository reasonably calculated to
-permit inexpensive and convenient access by You for as long as Licensor
-continues to distribute the Original Work.
-
-4. Exclusions From License Grant. Neither the names of Licensor, nor the names
-of any contributors to the Original Work, nor any of their trademarks or
-service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this
-Original Work without express prior permission of the Licensor. Except as
-expressly stated herein, nothing in this License grants any license to
-Licensor's trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other
-intellectual property. No patent license is granted to make, use, sell, offer
-for sale, have made, or import embodiments of any patent claims other than the
-licensed claims defined in Section 2. No license is granted to the trademarks
-of Licensor even if such marks are included in the Original Work. Nothing in
-this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under
-terms different from this License any Original Work that Licensor otherwise
-would have a right to license.
-
-5. External Deployment. The term "External Deployment" means the use,
-distribution, or communication of the Original Work or Derivative Works in any
-way such that the Original Work or Derivative Works may be used by anyone
-other than You, whether those works are distributed or communicated to those
-persons or made available as an application intended for use over a network.
-As an express condition for the grants of license hereunder, You must treat
-any External Deployment by You of the Original Work or a Derivative Work as a
-distribution under section 1(c).
-
-6. Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any Derivative
-Works that You create, all copyright, patent, or trademark notices from the
-Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices of licensing and any
-descriptive text identified therein as an "Attribution Notice." You must cause
-the Source Code for any Derivative Works that You create to carry a prominent
-Attribution Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that You have
-modified the Original Work.
-
-7. Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that
-the copyright in and to the Original Work and the patent rights granted herein
-by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are sublicensed to You under the
-terms of this License with the permission of the contributor(s) of those
-copyrights and patent rights. Except as expressly stated in the immediately
-preceding sentence, the Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS
-IS" BASIS and WITHOUT WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without
-limitation, the warranties of non-infringement, merchantability or fitness for
-a particular purpose. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL WORK
-IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part of this
-License. No license to the Original Work is granted by this License except
-under this disclaimer.
-
-8. Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory,
-whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall the
-Licensor be liable to anyone for any indirect, special, incidental, or
-consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this License or
-the use of the Original Work including, without limitation, damages for loss
-of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
-other commercial damages or losses. This limitation of liability shall not
-apply to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation.
-
-9. Acceptance and Termination. If, at any time, You expressly assented to this
-License, that assent indicates your clear and irrevocable acceptance of this
-License and all of its terms and conditions. If You distribute or communicate
-copies of the Original Work or a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable
-effort under the circumstances to obtain the express assent of recipients to
-the terms of this License. This License conditions your rights to undertake
-the activities listed in Section 1, including your right to create Derivative
-Works based upon the Original Work, and doing so without honoring these terms
-and conditions is prohibited by copyright law and international treaty.
-Nothing in this License is intended to affect copyright exceptions and
-limitations (including 'fair use' or 'fair dealing'). This License shall
-terminate immediately and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted
-to You by this License upon your failure to honor the conditions in Section
-1(c).
-
-10. Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate automatically
-and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You by this
-License as of the date You commence an action, including a cross-claim or
-counterclaim, against Licensor or any licensee alleging that the Original Work
-infringes a patent. This termination provision shall not apply for an action
-alleging patent infringement by combinations of the Original Work with other
-software or hardware.
-
-11. Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating to this
-License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein the
-Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under
-the laws of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The
-application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
-International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the Original
-Work outside the scope of this License or after its termination shall be
-subject to the requirements and penalties of copyright or patent law in the
-appropriate jurisdiction. This section shall survive the termination of this
-License.
-
-12. Attorneys' Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License or
-seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
-recover its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
-attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, including
-any appeal of such action. This section shall survive the termination of this
-License.
-
-13. Miscellaneous. If any provision of this License is held to be
-unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary
-to make it enforceable.
-
-14. Definition of "You" in This License. "You" throughout this License,
-whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a legal entity
-exercising rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this License.
-For legal entities, "You" includes any entity that controls, is controlled by,
-or is under common control with you. For purposes of this definition,
-"control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or
-management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership
-of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial
-ownership of such entity.
-
-15. Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not otherwise
-restricted or conditioned by this License or by law, and Licensor promises not
-to interfere with or be responsible for such uses by You.
-
-16. Modification of This License. This License is Copyright © 2005 Lawrence
-Rosen. Permission is granted to copy, distribute, or communicate this License
-without modification. Nothing in this License permits You to modify this
-License as applied to the Original Work or to Derivative Works. However, You
-may modify the text of this License and copy, distribute or communicate your
-modified version (the "Modified License") and apply it to other original works
-of authorship subject to the following conditions: (i) You may not indicate in
-any way that your Modified License is the "Open Software License" or "OSL" and
-you may not use those names in the name of your Modified License; (ii) You
-must replace the notice specified in the first paragraph above with the notice
-"Licensed under <insert your license name here>" or with a notice of your own
-that is not confusingly similar to the notice in this License; and (iii) You
-may not claim that your original works are open source software unless your
-Modified License has been approved by Open Source Initiative (OSI) and You
-comply with its license review and certification process.
