NAME
        copyright - copyright of files in NannyMUD


DESCRIPTION
        A wizard's files in NannyMUD are protected by the normal Real
	Life (Swedish) copyright laws.
	By transferring files to, or creating files on, the disks 
	used by the *Lysator-project NannyMUD (Nanny) the wizard agrees
	to the following modification of his/her (his) rights to the 
	files. 

	Everything residing in the wizard's home directory including
	the contents of the sub directories are considered belonging
	to the wizard. Any other file supplied by the wizard is regarded
	as Nanny having been given all rights to it**. The administrators
	are given the right to modify it and also use the code as a base for
	other programs (the wizard has "contributed" the file to Nanny).
	The wizard may at any time ask for his files to be removed from the
	disks and / or sent to him.

	Should the wizard become inactive***, his files will be considered
	contributions to Nanny unless explicitly stated otherwise.

	A caretaker may be appointed by the wizard, but must be
	approved by the administrators of Nanny.

	The administrators of Nanny may take backups on all files
	residing on the disks used by Nanny, and the wizard may at any
	time ask to get a copy of his files from the backup.

	The administrators of Nanny are allowed to modify any file on
	the disks used by Nanny. When a file is modified, its owner
	will be notified by an in-mud "tell" or via MUD-mail. After
	having ****received a notification, the owner may not *****undo 
	the aforementioned modification without prior consent from 
	the administrators of Nanny. If the wizard gains knowledge of
	changes made to the files even though no notification has been
	received, the wizard is considered notified and may not undo the
	change as stated above.
	 
	All texts generated by NannyMUD are considered copyrighted
	by their respective creator.

==============================
