					The installer presents you with a series of license agreements. All of the files that constitute a <application>Publican</application> installation are available under a free license. However, because different licenses are more suitable for certain parts of <application>Publican</application> than others, the <application>Publican</application> files are not all available under the same free license. Each license grants you a different set of rights and responsibilities when you copy or modify the files in your <application>Publican</application> installation. We chose this combination of licenses to allow you to use <application>Publican</application> as freely as possible and to allow you to choose whatever license you prefer for the documents that you publish with <application>Publican</application>.
				</para>

					The installer offers to install several components: <application>Publican</application> itself (labeled <literal>Main</literal> in the installer window), a number of <firstterm>brands</firstterm> (including <literal>RedHat</literal>, <literal>JBoss</literal>, and <literal>fedora</literal>), and two DocBook components (the DocBook <firstterm>Data Type Definition</firstterm> (DTD) and DocBook <firstterm>Extensible Stylesheet Language</firstterm> (XSL) stylesheets). The three brands are grouped under the collapsible heading <literal>Brands</literal> and the DocBook components are grouped under the collapsible heading <literal>DocBook</literal> in the installer window. Refer to <xref linkend="chap-Publican-Users_Guide-Branding" /> for an explanation of brands in <application>Publican</application>. <application>Publican</application> uses the DTD and the XSL stylesheets to render XML documents in other presentation formats (such as HTML and PDF). If you do not install these components, <application>Publican</application> must download this data from the Internet every time it processes a document, which creates lengthy delays.
