This project includes both writing and code. I want people to be able to use the code safely and without restriction, but for authors to have tighter control over their writing, images and other content.

Accordingly:

• Each file is licensed separately. The header of each file, or its reference in NOTICES.txt, determines how you are allowed to use the contents of that file.
• The source code files generally use a very permissive license, the Blue Oak Model license. A copy of that license is included below).
• Other files, such as those containing the content of the website and books, are included here by permission of their authors, and are generally not licensed for reuse unless specifically provided.

Note that nothing here applies to files that aren’t included in this project’s Fossil repository.

Giving Credit

Please consider giving public credit to this project if you use significant amounts of its code in any software or system, or if you publish any work using code from this project. This credit should be a short notice that, at a minimum, includes this project’s name The Local Yarn and its domain name thelocalyarn.com.

Suggested examples:

• If users access your system or work by running a program you provide, include the notice in the program’s About screen (for a graphical or interactive program) or in the output of the program’s “version” argument (for command-line programs).
• If users access your system or work via the World Wide Web, put the notice or a link to the notice at the bottom of the home page.
• If your work is published as a printed book, include the notice in the book’s front matter.
