Please see |kcc| 12below or visit the ICCF web site, available at these URLs: 13 14 http://iccf-holland.org/ 15 http://www.vim.org/iccf/ 16 17You can also sponsor the development of Vim. Vim sponsors can vote for 18features. See |sponsor|. 19 20The Open Publication License applies to the Vim documentation, see 21|manual-copyright|. 22 23=== begin of license === 24 25VIM LICENSE 26 27I) There are no restrictions on distributing unmodified copies of Vim except 28 that they must include this license text. You can also distribute 29 unmodified parts of Vim, likewise unrestricted except that they must 30 include this license text. You are also allowed to include executables 31 that you made from the unmodified Vim sources, plus your own usage 32 examples and Vim scripts. 33 34II) It is allowed to distribute a modified (or extended) version of Vim, 35 including executables and/or source code, when the following four 36 conditions are met: 37 1) This license text must be included unmodified. 38 2) The modified Vim must be distributed in one of the following five ways: 39 a) If you make changes to Vim yourself, you must clearly describe in 40 the distribution how to contact you. When the maintainer asks you 41 (in any way) for a copy of the modified Vim you distributed, you 42 must make your changes, including source code, available to the 43 maintainer without fee. The maintainer reserves the right to 44 include your changes in the official version of Vim. What the 45 maintainer will do with your changes and under what license they 46 will be distributed is negotiable. If there has been no negotiation 47 then this license, or a later version, also applies to your changes. 48 The current maintainer is Bram Moolenaar <[email protected]>. If this 49 changes it will be announced in appropriate places (most likely 50 vim.sf.net, www.vim.org and/or comp.editors). When it is completely 51 impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to send him 52 your changes ceases. Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has 53 received your changes they will not have to be sent again. 54 b) If you have received a modified Vim that was distributed as 55 mentioned under a) you are allowed to further distribute it 56 unmodified, as mentioned at I). If you make additional changes the 57 text under a) applies to those changes. 58 c) Provide all the changes, including source code, with every copy of 59 the modified Vim you distribute. This may be done in the form of a 60 context diff. You can choose what license to use for new code you 61 add. The changes and their license must not restrict others from 62 making their own changes to the official version of Vim. 63 d) When you have a modified Vim which includes changes as mentioned 64 under c), you can distribute it without the source code for the 65 changes if the following three conditions are met: 66 - The license that applies to the changes permits you to distribute 67 the changes to the Vim maintainer without fee or restriction, and 68 permits the Vim maintainer to include the changes in the official 69 version of Vim without fee or restriction. 70 - You keep the changes for at least three years after last 71 distributing the corresponding modified Vim. When the maintainer 72 or someone who you distributed the modified Vim to asks you (in 73 any way) for the changes within this period, you must make them 74 available to him. 75 - You clearly describe in the distribution how to contact you. This 76 contact information must remain valid for at least three years 77 after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim, or as long 78 as possible. 79 e) When the GNU General Public License (GPL) applies to the changes, 80 you can distribute the modified Vim under the GNU GPL version 2 or 81 any later version. 82 3) A message must be added, at least in the output of the ":version" 83 command and in the intro screen, such that the user of the modified Vim 84 is able to see that it was modified. When distributing as mentioned 85 under 2)e) adding the message is only required for as far as this does 86 not conflict with the license used for the changes. 87 4) The contact information as required under 2)a) and 2)d) must not be 88 removed or changed, except that the person himself can make 89 corrections. 90 91III) If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you are encouraged to use 92 the Vim license for your changes and make them available to the 93 maintainer, including the source code. The preferred way to do this is 94 by e-mail or by uploading the files to a server and e-mailing the URL. 95 If the number of changes is small (e.g., a modified Makefile) e-mailing a 96 context diff will do. The e-mail address to be used is 97 <[email protected]> 98 99IV) It is not allowed to remove this license from the distribution of the Vim 100 sources, parts of it or from a modified version. You may use this 101 license for previous Vim releases instead of the license that they came 102 with, at your option. 103 104=== end of license === 105 106Note: 107 108- If you are happy with Vim, please express that by reading the rest of this 109 file and consider helping needy children in Uganda. 110 111- If you want to support further Vim development consider becoming a 112 |sponsor|. 113 114- According to Richard Stallman the Vim license is GNU GPL compatible. 115 A few minor changes have been made since he checked it, but that should not 116 make a difference. 117 118- If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits 119 further distribution to the GNU GPL. Also when you didn't actually change 120 anything in Vim. 121 122- Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all 123 further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL or a compatible license. 124 125- If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you can include your name and 126 contact information with the "--with-modified-by" configure argument or the 127 MODIFIED_BY define. 128 129============================================================================== 130Kibaale Children's Centre *kcc* 131 132Kibaale Children's Centre (KCC) is located in Kibaale, a small town in the 133south of Uganda, near Tanzania, in East Africa. The area is known as Rakai 134District. The population is mostly farmers. Although people are poor, there 135is enough food. But this district is suffering from AIDS more than any other 136part of the world. Some say that it started there. Estimations are that 10 137to 30% of the Ugandans are infected with HIV. Because parents die, there are 138many orphans. In this district about 60,000 children have lost one or both 139parents, out of a population of 350,000. And this is still continuing. 140 141The children need a lot of help. The KCC is working hard to provide the needy 142with food, medical care and education. Food and medical care to keep them 143healthy now, and education so that they can take care of themselves in the 144future. KCC works on a Christian base, but help is given to children of any 145religion. 146 147The key to solving the problems in this area is education. This has been 148neglected in the past years with president Idi Amin and the following civil 149wars. Now that the government is stable again, the children and parents have 150to learn how to take care of themselves and how to avoid infections. There is 151also help for people who are ill and hungry, but the primary goal is to 152prevent people from getting ill and to teach them how to grow healthy food. 153 154Most of the orphans are living in an extended family. An uncle or older 155sister is taking care of them. Because these families are big and the income 156(if any) is low, a child is lucky if it gets healthy food. Clothes, medical 157care and schooling is beyond its reach. To help these needy children, a 158sponsorship program was put into place. A child can be financially adopted. 159For a few dollars a month KCC sees to it that the child gets indispensable 160items, is healthy, goes to school and KCC takes care of anything else that 161needs to be done for the child and the family that supports it. 162 163Besides helping the child directly, the environment where the child grows up 164needs to be improved. KCC helps schools to improve their teaching methods. 165There is a demonstration school at the centre and teacher trainings are given. 166Health workers are being trained, hygiene education is carried out and 167households are stimulated to build a proper latrine. I helped setting up a 168production site for cement slabs. These are used to build a good latrine. 169They are sold below cost price. 170 171There is a small clinic at the project, which provides children and their 172family with medical help. When needed, transport to a hospital is offered. 173Immunization programs are carried out and help is provided when an epidemic is 174breaking out (measles and cholera have been a problem). 175 176Summer 1994 to summer 1995 I spent a whole year at the centre, working as a 177volunteer. I have helped to expand the centre and worked in the area of water 178and sanitation. I learned that the help that the KCC provides really helps. 179Now that I'm back in Holland, I would like to continue supporting KCC. To do 180this I'm raising funds and organizing the sponsorship program. Please 181consider one of these possibilities: 182 1831. Sponsor a child in primary school: 17 euro a month (or more). 1842. Sponsor a child in secondary school: 25 euro a month (or more). 1853. Sponsor the clinic: Any amount a month or quarter 1864. A one-time donation 187 188Compared with other organizations that do child sponsorship the amounts are 189very low. This is because the money goes directly to the centre. Less than 1905% is used for administration. This is possible because this is a small 191organization that works with volunteers. If you would like to sponsor a 192child, you should have the intention to do this for at least one year. 193 194How do you know that the money will be spent right? First of all you have my 195personal guarantee as the author of Vim. I trust the people that are working 196at the centre, I know them personally. Further more, the centre is 197co-sponsored and inspected by World Vision, Save the Children Fund and 198International Child Care Fund. The centre is visited about once a year to 199check the progress (at our own cost). I have visited the centre myself in 2001996, 1998, 2000, 2001 and 2003. The visit reports are on the ICCF web site. 201 202If you have any further questions, send me e-mail: <[email protected]>. 203 204The address of the centre is: 205 Kibaale Children's Centre 206 p.o. box 1658 207 Masaka, Uganda, East Africa 208 209Sending money: 210 211Check the ICCF web site for the latest information!
