A large portion of the dictionary entries originate from ICOT Free
Software. The following conditions for ICOT Free Software applies to the
current dictionary as well.

Each User may also freely distribute the Program, whether in its original
form or modified, to any third party or parties, PROVIDED that the
provisions of Section 3 ("NO WARRANTY") will ALWAYS appear on, or be
attached to, the Program, which is distributed substantially in the same
form as set out herein and that such intended distribution, if actually
made, will neither violate or otherwise contravene any of the laws and
regulations of the countries having jurisdiction over the User or the
intended distribution itself.

NO WARRANTY

The program was produced on an experimental basis in the course of the
research and development conducted during the project and is provided to
users as so produced on an experimental basis. Accordingly, the program is
provided without any warranty whatsoever, whether express, implied,
statutory or otherwise. The term "warranty" used herein includes, but is
not limited to, any warranty of the quality, performance, merchantability
and fitness for a particular purpose of the program and the nonexistence of
any infringement or violation of any right of any third party.

Each user of the program will agree and understand, and be deemed to have
agreed and understood, that there is no warranty whatsoever for the program
and, accordingly, the entire risk arising from or otherwise connected with
the program is assumed by the user.

Therefore, neither ICOT, the copyright holder, or any other organization
that participated in or was otherwise related to the development of the
program and their respective officials, directors, officers and other
employees shall be held liable for any and all damages, including, without
limitation, general, special, incidental and consequential damages, arising
out of or otherwise in connection with the use or inability to use the
program or any product, material or result produced or otherwise obtained
by using the program, regardless of whether they have been advised of, or
otherwise had knowledge of, the possibility of such damages at any time
during the project or thereafter. Each user will be deemed to have agreed
to the foregoing by his or her commencement of use of the program. The term
"use" as used herein includes, but is not limited to, the use,
modification, copying and distribution of the program and the production of
secondary products from the program.

In the case where the program, whether in its original form or modified,
was distributed or delivered to or received by a user from any person,
organization or entity other than ICOT, unless it makes or grants
independently of ICOT any specific warranty to the user in writing, such
person, organization or entity, will also be exempted from and not be held
liable to the user for any such damages as noted above as far as the
program is concerned.
