authors accept NO LIABILITY for damages of any kind.
These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the
IJG code, not just to the unmodified library. If you use our work, you
ought to acknowledge us.
Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG author's name or
company name in advertising or publicity relating to this software or
products derived from it. This software may be referred to only as
"the Independent JPEG Group's software".
We specifically permit and encourage the use of this software as the
basis of commercial products, provided that all warranty or liability
claims are assumed by the product vendor.
ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by permission of L. Peter
Deutsch, sole proprietor of its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises
of Menlo Park, CA. ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the above copyright
and conditions, but instead by the usual distribution terms of the
Free Software Foundation; principally, that you must include source
code if you redistribute it. (See the file ansi2knr.c for full
details.) However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any
program generated from the IJG code, this does not limit you more than
the foregoing paragraphs do.
The Unix configuration script "configure" was produced with GNU
Autoconf. It is copyright by the Free Software Foundation but is
freely distributable. The same holds for its supporting scripts
(config.guess, config.sub, ltconfig, ltmain.sh). Another support
script, install-sh, is copyright by M.I.T. but is also freely
distributable.
It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG spec is
covered by patents owned by IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence
arithmetic coding cannot legally be used without obtaining one or more
licenses. For this reason, support for arithmetic coding has been
removed from the free JPEG software. (Since arithmetic coding provides
only a marginal gain over the unpatented Huffman mode, it is unlikely
that very many implementations will support it.) So far as we are
aware, there are no patent restrictions on the remaining code.
The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF
files. To avoid entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent, GIF reading
support has been removed altogether, and the GIF writer has been
simplified to produce "uncompressed GIFs". This technique does not use
the LZW algorithm; the resulting GIF files are larger than usual, but
are readable by all standard GIF decoders.
We are required to state that "The Graphics Interchange Format(c) is
the Copyright property of CompuServe Incorporated. GIF(sm) is a
Service Mark property of CompuServe Incorporated."
