-			*uganda* *Uganda* *copying* *copyright* *license*
-SUMMARY
-								*iccf* *ICCF*
-Vim is Charityware.  You can use and copy it as much as you like, but you are
-encouraged to make a donation for needy children in Uganda.  Please see |kcc|
-below or visit the ICCF web site, available at these URLs:
-
-	https://iccf-holland.org/
-	https://www.vim.org/iccf/
-	https://www.iccf.nl/
-
-You can also sponsor the development of Vim.  Vim sponsors can vote for
-features.  See |sponsor|.  The money goes to Uganda anyway.
-
-The Open Publication License applies to the Vim documentation, see
-|manual-copyright|.
-
-=== begin of license ===
-
-VIM LICENSE
-
-I)  There are no restrictions on distributing unmodified copies of Vim except
-    that they must include this license text.  You can also distribute
-    unmodified parts of Vim, likewise unrestricted except that they must
-    include this license text.  You are also allowed to include executables
-    that you made from the unmodified Vim sources, plus your own usage
-    examples and Vim scripts.
-
-II) It is allowed to distribute a modified (or extended) version of Vim,
-    including executables and/or source code, when the following four
-    conditions are met:
-    1) This license text must be included unmodified.
-    2) The modified Vim must be distributed in one of the following five ways:
-       a) If you make changes to Vim yourself, you must clearly describe in
-	  the distribution how to contact you.  When the maintainer asks you
-	  (in any way) for a copy of the modified Vim you distributed, you
-	  must make your changes, including source code, available to the
-	  maintainer without fee.  The maintainer reserves the right to
-	  include your changes in the official version of Vim.  What the
-	  maintainer will do with your changes and under what license they
-	  will be distributed is negotiable.  If there has been no negotiation
-	  then this license, or a later version, also applies to your changes.
-	  The current maintainer is Bram Moolenaar &lt;Bram@vim.org&gt;.  If this
-	  changes it will be announced in appropriate places (most likely
-	  vim.sf.net, www.vim.org and/or comp.editors).  When it is completely
-	  impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to send him
-	  your changes ceases.  Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has
-	  received your changes they will not have to be sent again.
-       b) If you have received a modified Vim that was distributed as
-	  mentioned under a) you are allowed to further distribute it
-	  unmodified, as mentioned at I).  If you make additional changes the
-	  text under a) applies to those changes.
-       c) Provide all the changes, including source code, with every copy of
-	  the modified Vim you distribute.  This may be done in the form of a
-	  context diff.  You can choose what license to use for new code you
-	  add.  The changes and their license must not restrict others from
-	  making their own changes to the official version of Vim.
-       d) When you have a modified Vim which includes changes as mentioned
-	  under c), you can distribute it without the source code for the
-	  changes if the following three conditions are met:
-	  - The license that applies to the changes permits you to distribute
-	    the changes to the Vim maintainer without fee or restriction, and
-	    permits the Vim maintainer to include the changes in the official
-	    version of Vim without fee or restriction.
-	  - You keep the changes for at least three years after last
-	    distributing the corresponding modified Vim.  When the maintainer
-	    or someone who you distributed the modified Vim to asks you (in
-	    any way) for the changes within this period, you must make them
-	    available to him.
-	  - You clearly describe in the distribution how to contact you.  This
-	    contact information must remain valid for at least three years
-	    after last distributing the corresponding modified Vim, or as long
-	    as possible.
-       e) When the GNU General Public License (GPL) applies to the changes,
-	  you can distribute the modified Vim under the GNU GPL version 2 or
-	  any later version.
-    3) A message must be added, at least in the output of the ":version"
-       command and in the intro screen, such that the user of the modified Vim
-       is able to see that it was modified.  When distributing as mentioned
-       under 2)e) adding the message is only required for as far as this does
-       not conflict with the license used for the changes.
-    4) The contact information as required under 2)a) and 2)d) must not be
-       removed or changed, except that the person himself can make
-       corrections.
-
-III) If you distribute a modified version of Vim, you are encouraged to use
-     the Vim license for your changes and make them available to the
-     maintainer, including the source code.  The preferred way to do this is
-     by e-mail or by uploading the files to a server and e-mailing the URL.
-     If the number of changes is small (e.g., a modified Makefile) e-mailing a
-     context diff will do.  The e-mail address to be used is
-     &lt;maintainer@vim.org&gt;
-
-IV)  It is not allowed to remove this license from the distribution of the Vim
-     sources, parts of it or from a modified version.  You may use this
-     license for previous Vim releases instead of the license that they came
-     with, at your option.
-
-=== end of license ===
-
-Note:
-
-- If you are happy with Vim, please express that by reading the rest of this
-  file and consider helping needy children in Uganda.
-
-- If you want to support further Vim development consider becoming a
-  |sponsor|.  The money goes to Uganda anyway.
-
-- According to Richard Stallman the Vim license is GNU GPL compatible.
-  A few minor changes have been made since he checked it, but that should not
-  make a difference.
-
-- If you link Vim with a library that goes under the GNU GPL, this limits
-  further distribution to the GNU GPL.  Also when you didn't actually change
-  anything in Vim.
-
-- Once a change is included that goes under the GNU GPL, this forces all
-  further changes to also be made under the GNU GPL or a compatible license.

-==============================================================================
-Kibaale Children's Centre		*kcc* *Kibaale*  *charity*
-
-Kibaale Children's Centre (KCC) is located in Kibaale, a small town in the
-south of Uganda, near Tanzania, in East Africa.  The area is known as Rakai
-District.  The population is mostly farmers.  Although people are poor, there
-usually is enough food.  But this district is suffering from AIDS more than
-any other part of the world.  Some say that it started there.  Estimations are
-that in the past 10 to 30% of the Ugandans are infected with HIV.  Because
-parents die, there are many orphans.  In this district about 60,000 children
-have lost one or both parents, out of a population of 350,000.  Although AIDS
-is now mostly under control, the problems are still continuing.
-
-The children need a lot of help.  The KCC is working hard to provide the needy
-with food, medical care and education.  Food and medical care to keep them
-healthy now, and education so that they can take care of themselves in the
-future.  KCC works on a Christian base, but help is given to children of any
-religion.
-
-The key to solving the problems in this area is education.  This has been
-neglected in the past years with president Idi Amin and the following civil
-wars.  Now that the government is stable again, the children and parents have
-to learn how to take care of themselves and how to avoid infections.  There is
-also help for people who are ill and hungry, but the primary goal is to
-prevent people from getting ill and to teach them how to grow healthy food.
-
-Most of the orphans are living in an extended family.  An uncle or older
-sister is taking care of them.  Because these families are big and the income
-(if any) is low, a child is lucky if it gets healthy food.  Clothes, medical
-care and schooling is beyond its reach.  To help these needy children, a
-sponsorship program was put into place.  A child can be financially adopted.
-For a few dollars a month KCC sees to it that the child gets indispensable
-items, is healthy, goes to school and KCC takes care of anything else that
-needs to be done for the child and the family that supports it.
-
-Besides helping the child directly, the environment where the child grows up
-needs to be improved.  KCC helps schools to improve their teaching methods.
-There is a demonstration school at the centre and teacher trainings are given.
-Health workers are being trained, hygiene education is carried out and
-households are stimulated to build a proper latrine.  I helped setting up a
-production site for cement slabs.  These are used to build a good latrine.
-They are sold below cost price.
-
-There is a clinic at the project, which provides children and their family
-medical help.  Since 2020 a maternity ward was added and 24/7 service is
-available.  When needed, transport to a hospital is offered.  Immunization
-programs are carried out and help is provided when an epidemic is breaking out
-(measles and cholera have been a problem).
-							*donate*
-Summer 1994 to summer 1995 I spent a whole year at the centre, working as a
-volunteer.  I have helped to expand the centre and worked in the area of water
-and sanitation.  I learned that the help that the KCC provides really helps.
-When I came back to Holland, I wanted to continue supporting KCC.  To do this
-I'm raising funds and organizing the sponsorship program.  Please consider one
-of these possibilities:
-
-1.  Sponsor a child in primary school: 17 euro a month (or more).
-2.  Sponsor a child in secondary school: 25 euro a month (or more).
-3.  Sponsor the clinic: Any amount a month or quarter
-4.  A one-time donation
-
-Compared with other organizations that do child sponsorship the amounts are
-very low.  This is because the money goes directly to the centre.  Less than
-5% is used for administration.  This is possible because this is a small
-organization that works with volunteers.  If you would like to sponsor a
-child, you should have the intention to do this for at least one year.
-
-How do you know that the money will be spent right?  First of all you have my
-personal guarantee as the author of Vim.  I trust the people that are working
-at the centre, I know them personally.  Furthermore, the centre has been
-co-sponsored and inspected by World Vision, Save the Children Fund and is now
-under the supervision of Pacific Academy Outreach Society.  The centre is
-visited about once a year to check the progress (at our own cost).  I have
-visited the centre myself many times, starting in 1993.  The visit reports are
-on the ICCF web site.
-
-If you have any further questions, send me e-mail: &lt;Bram@vim.org&gt;.
-
-The address of the centre is:
-			Kibaale Children's Centre
-			p.o. box 1658
-			Masaka, Uganda, East Africa
