+Free Art License 1.3 (FAL 1.3)
+
+Preamble
+
+The Free Art License grants the right to freely copy, distribute, and
+transform creative works without infringing the author's rights.
+
+The Free Art License recognizes and protects these rights. Their
+implementation has been reformulated in order to allow everyone to use
+creations of the human mind in a creative manner, regardless of their
+types and ways of expression.
+
+While the public's access to creations of the human mind usually is
+restricted by the implementation of copyright law, it is favoured by
+the Free Art License. This license intends to allow the use of a
+work’s resources; to establish new conditions for creating in order to
+increase creation opportunities. The Free Art License grants the right
+to use a work, and acknowledges the right holder’s and the user’s
+rights and responsibility.
+
+The invention and development of digital technologies, Internet and
+Free Software have changed creation methods: creations of the human
+mind can obviously be distributed, exchanged, and transformed. They
+allow to produce common works to which everyone can contribute to the
+benefit of all.
+
+The main rationale for this Free Art License is to promote and protect
+these creations of the human mind according to the principles of
+copyleft: freedom to use, copy, distribute, transform, and prohibition
+of exclusive appropriation.
+
+Definitions
+
+“work” either means the initial work, the subsequent works or the
+common work as defined hereafter:
+
+“common work” means a work composed of the initial work and all
+subsequent contributions to it (originals and copies). The initial
+author is the one who, by choosing this license, defines the
+conditions under which contributions are made.
+
+“Initial work” means the work created by the initiator of the common
+work (as defined above), the copies of which can be modified by
+whoever wants to
+
+“Subsequent works” means the contributions made by authors who
+participate in the evolution of the common work by exercising the
+rights to reproduce, distribute, and modify that are granted by the
+license.
+
+“Originals” (sources or resources of the work) means all copies of
+either the initial work or any subsequent work mentioning a date and
+used by their author(s) as references for any subsequent updates,
+interpretations, copies or reproductions.
+
+“Copy” means any reproduction of an original as defined by this
+license.
+
+1. OBJECT
+
+The aim of this license is to define the conditions under which one
+can use this work freely.
+
+2. SCOPE
+
+This work is subject to copyright law. Through this license its author
+specifies the extent to which you can copy, distribute, and modify it.
+
+2.1 FREEDOM TO COPY (OR TO MAKE REPRODUCTIONS)
+
+You have the right to copy this work for yourself, your friends or any
+other person, whatever the technique used.
+
+2.2 FREEDOM TO DISTRIBUTE, TO PERFORM IN PUBLIC
+
+You have the right to distribute copies of this work; whether modified
+or not, whatever the medium and the place, with or without any charge,
+provided that you: attach this license without any modification to the
+copies of this work or indicate precisely where the license can be
+found, specify to the recipient the names of the author(s) of the
+originals, including yours if you have modified the work, specify to
+the recipient where to access the originals (either initial or
+subsequent).
+
+The authors of the originals may, if they wish to, give you the right
+to distribute the originals under the same conditions as the copies.
+
+2.3 FREEDOM TO MODIFY
+
+You have the right to modify copies of the originals (whether initial
+or subsequent) provided you comply with the following conditions: all
+conditions in article 2.2 above, if you distribute modified copies;
+indicate that the work has been modified and, if it is possible, what
+kind of modifications have been made; distribute the subsequent work
+under the same license or any compatible license.
+
+The author(s) of the original work may give you the right to modify it
+under the same conditions as the copies.
+
+3. RELATED RIGHTS
+
+Activities giving rise to author’s rights and related rights shall not
+challenge the rights granted by this license.
+
+For example, this is the reason why performances must be subject to
+the same license or a compatible license. Similarly, integrating the
+work in a database, a compilation or an anthology shall not prevent
+anyone from using the work under the same conditions as those defined
+in this license.
+
+4. INCORPORATION OF THE WORK
+
+Incorporating this work into a larger work that is not subject to the
+Free Art License shall not challenge the rights granted by this
+license.
+
+If the work can no longer be accessed apart from the larger work in
+which it is incorporated, then incorporation shall only be allowed
+under the condition that the larger work is subject either to the Free
+Art License or a compatible license.
+
+5. COMPATIBILITY
+
+A license is compatible with the Free Art License provided: it gives
+the right to copy, distribute, and modify copies of the work including
+for commercial purposes and without any other restrictions than those
+required by the respect of the other compatibility criteria; it
+ensures proper attribution of the work to its authors and access to
+previous versions of the work when possible; it recognizes the Free
+Art License as compatible (reciprocity); it requires that changes made
+to the work be subject to the same license or to a license which also
+meets these compatibility criteria.
+
+6. YOUR INTELLECTUAL RIGHTS
+
+This license does not aim at denying your author's rights in your
+contribution or any related right. By choosing to contribute to the
+development of this common work, you only agree to grant others the
+same rights with regard to your contribution as those you were granted
+by this license. Conferring these rights does not mean you have to
+give up your intellectual rights.
+
+7. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
+
+The freedom to use the work as defined by the Free Art License (right
+to copy, distribute, modify) implies that everyone is responsible for
+their own actions.
+
+8. DURATION OF THE LICENSE
+
+This license takes effect as of your acceptance of its terms. The act
+of copying, distributing, or modifying the work constitutes a tacit
+agreement. This license will remain in effect for as long as the
+copyright which is attached to the work. If you do not respect the
+terms of this license, you automatically lose the rights that it
+confers.
+
+If the legal status or legislation to which you are subject makes it
+impossible for you to respect the terms of this license, you may not
+make use of the rights which it confers.
+
+9. VARIOUS VERSIONS OF THE LICENSE
+
+This license may undergo periodic modifications to incorporate
+improvements by its authors (instigators of the “Copyleft Attitude”
+movement) by way of new, numbered versions.
+
+You will always have the choice of accepting the terms contained in
+the version under which the copy of the work was distributed to you,
+or alternatively, to use the provisions of one of the subsequent
+versions.
+
+10. SUB-LICENSING
+
+Sub-licenses are not authorized by this license. Any person wishing to
+make use of the rights that it confers will be directly bound to the
+authors of the common work.
+
+11. LEGAL FRAMEWORK
+
+This license is written with respect to both French law and the Berne
+Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works.

+Software community, artists, and members of the art world. The goal
+was to adapt the principles of Copyleft and free software to all sorts
+of creations. http://www.artlibre.org
