License change
--------------

AWS 2.2 has switched to the pure GNU GPL license.  As a result, if
you use AWS 2.2 in your program, you have four options:

- do not distribute your program at all (you can always use it for
  yourself).

- distribute your program under the terms of the GPL, i.e. with full
  sources and the four freedoms: inspection, redistribution,
  modification, and distribution of modified copies.

- distribute your program in source form only, under licensing terms
  of your choosing (perhaps under non-disclosure, non-redistribution
  terms), and ask your licensees to recompile your program for
  themselves.

- contact AdaCore (sales@adacore.com) and purchase a GNAT-Modified
  GPL which will allow you to distribute your program in binary-only
  form without disclosing your sources.

If you obtain AWS 2.2 or later from AdaCore's CVS or web server, you
may notice that the source files still contain the GNAT-Modified
license boilerplate.  This boilerplate has no legal force; you must
ask AdaCore for clarification.  The license is really the pure GPL.
In order to reduce the risk for confusion, I have removed this license
boilerplate from the sources in the Debian package.
