Overview
--------
The Python-on-a-Chip program consists of the PyMite virtual machine,
ports to specific platforms, libraries, tests, tools and documentation.
This document explains the licensing terms of the different components
of the Python-on-a-Chip program.
The Python-on-a-Chip program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Details
-------
Dean Hall is the copyright holder for all files in src/vm.
Dean Hall is the majority copyright holder for all other files
in Python-on-a-Chip with these exceptions:
Bryan Jones contributed all files in src/platform/pic24.
James Snyder contributed all files in src/platform/stm32.
Python-on-a-Chip was formerly offered under a dual-license:
a commercial license and the GPL. On 2012/08/29, Dean Hall
changed the license to the MIT License for all files except those
in src/platform/. This license change applies only to the r09 release
and specifically does not apply to the software in the repository under
the v10 branch.
Net Effect
----------
The cumulitive effect of the licensing above results in the r09 code having
a very liberal license and obtaining a commercial license from Dean Hall is
no longer necessary for the r09 code.
