IzPack 2 is a Java software installer builder released under the terms of |
| 6 |
the GNU GPL version 2 of the licence, or any later version. It is based around |
| 7 |
an installer compiler that uses XML files to describe your installation. |
| 8 |
IzPack is totally independant from the Operating System which runs it. It is |
| 9 |
also very modular so that you can easely create and integrate your own panels |
| 10 |
(installation steps). |

The IzPack homepage is http://www.izforge.com/izpack/ . You can contact the |

> 2 - The documentation < |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
A documentation is available in the doc folder. It was generated with |
| 18 |
LaTeX under GNU-Linux. You can print a book version by modifying the |
| 19 |
izpack-doc.tex file (change the class from report to book) that is located in |
| 20 |
the src/doc folder (provided that you installed the source code). A makefile |
| 21 |
is available to compile the documentation, see the Readme file of the folder |
| 22 |
for more. |

> 3 - Licencing issues < |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The licences used by IzPack or the libraries it uses are available in the |
| 27 |
legal folder. IzPack is covered by the GNU GPL 2 and any derivative work based |
| 28 |
on it must also be covered by this licence. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Generating an installer for commercial products is strongly encouraged, but |
| 31 |
distributing an installer using a panel that is not released under a free |
| 32 |
licence compatible with GNU GPL 2 is not permitted as the installer is covered |
| 33 |
by this licence. |
