मंगल भवन अमंगल हारी, भैँस सदा ही अकल पे भारी
भैँस मेरी जब चर आये चारा, 5 सेर हम दूध निकारा
कोई अकल ना यह कर पावे, चारा खाकर दूध बनावे
अकल घास जब चरने जाए, हार जाय नर अति दुःख पावे
भैँस का चारा लालू खायो, निज घरवाली सी.एम. बनवायो
तुमहू भैँस का चारा खाओ, बीवी को सी.एम. बनवाओ
मोटी अकल मंदमति होई, मोटी भैँस दूध अति होई
अकल इश्क कर कर के रोए, भैँस का कोई ब्वायफ्रेँड ना होवे
अकल तो ले मोबाइल घुमे, SMS पा पा कर झुमे
भैँस मेरी डायरेक्ट पुकारे, कबहू मिस्ड काल ना मारे
भैँस कभी सिगरेट ना पीती, भैँस बिना दारु के जीती
भैँस कभी ना पान चबाए, ना ही इसको ड्रग्स सुहाए
शक्तिशाली शाकाहारी भैँस हमारी कितनी प्यारी
अकलमन्द को कोई ना जाने, भैँस को सारा जग पहचाने
जाकी अकल मे गोबर होए सो इन्सान पटक सर रोए
मंगल भवन अमंगल हारी, भैस का गोबर अकल पर भारी
भैँस मरे तो बनते जूते, अकल मरे तो पड़ते जूते।
 
Now you can decide
अकल बड़ी या भैँस

BSD-like non-copyleft licenses

In parallel with the set of GNU licenses (including the GNU GPL), the free software world evolved a number of very simple non-copyleft licenses. These licenses are so simple that no dedicated text is needed to expose the terms of the license. To reuse such a license, you must take its text and replace the copyright notice with your own. Since these licenses are non-copyleft, changing the license text in such a way does not prevent reuse between works from happening.

Regardless of their wording, these licenses always grant the user very broad rights, including the right to modify and distribute without supplying any source code. Also, their concise wording makes them simple to understand and unambiguous as to their effects.

These licenses are often called "BSD-like" because the first occurence of such a license has been the license under which the Berkeley Software Distribution (one of the first free versions of Unix) was shipped to users.

One should distinguish the original BSD license with its controversial advertising clause from the revised BSD license that does not have the advertising clause.

Design Science License

FreeBSD Documentation License

Although especially written for the FreeBSD project, this license shows you how to draft a very simple non-copyleft license for documentation works.

Free Art License

GNU Free Documentation License

Invariant sections

Invariant sections are a special provision of the GFDL which, if used, prevent anyone from modifying the parts of the work which are defined as "invariant". The Free Software Foundation finds it useful to protect some special "non-functional" parts of the work, like a statement of intent (the motivation for invariant sections was, allegedly, to prevent the GNU Manifesto to be removed or modified in GNU documentations).

We believe, however, that freedom should apply to all kind of works, and that what is "functional" in one situation can be "artistic" in another - and vice-versa. Consequently, a work using invariant sections to forbid some kinds of modifications to the work cannot be considered completely free.

Unless additional permissions are granted, all FDL works contain unmodifiable sections which aren't called Invariant Sections, such as a copy of the license embedded in the document itself.

GNU General Public License

The GNU GPL is, according to various statistics, probably the most used free software license. It was also the first license to implement the concept of copyleft, guaranteeing that "GPL'ed" free software cannot become, or take part in, non-free software.

Although the GPL is primarily intended for software programs, it is worded so as to apply to many different kinds of works. The main condition for the GPL to be applicable to a type of work is that it admits the notion of a preferred form of a work for making modifications to it (be it source code in a computer language, music score notation, digital graphics under a format retaining structure, etc.). For example, there are many occurences of text or graphics released under the GPL.

Lizenz für Freie Inhalte

AFAIK only used by the german portal neppstar for free music and video. Anyway, it seems to be a valid free license.

MIT License

This license is arguably the simplest form of the BSD-like licenses for software. All the license, except for the no-warranty statement, is condensed in two short paragraphs.

There are variants, like the current BSD license which has an additional provision forbidding endorsement of derived works using the name of the original authors.
