1 Notice of Adoption
2 ==================
3
4 I, Mychaela Nadezhda Falconia, hereby appoint myself as the Adoptive Mother of
5 the GSM mobile station firmware code that has been abandoned, disowned and
6 discarded in the trash by Texas Instruments (TI). I argue that by effectively
7 disowning this code and discarding it in the trash, TI have forfeited any and
8 all rights they may have had to this code, both moral and economic, and I ask
9 the users and distributors of my code to ignore and disregard any and all TI
10 copyright notices interspersed in various individual source files.

12 Declaration of Free Software Status
13 ===================================
14
15 I, Mychaela Nadezhda Falconia, the Adoptive Mother of the software contained in
16 this source repository, develop, maintain and distribute this work with the
17 intention that it be treated as Free Software. Specifically:
18
19 * By virtue of there being no one to stop you from doing so, you may use this
20 code as you wish, for any purpose whatsoever;
21
22 * By virtue of the complete source code being published, you may study how this
23 code works, and change it so it does whatever you desire;
24
25 * By virtue of there being no one to stop you from doing so, you may
26 redistribute copies of this code however you like;
27
28 * Also by virtue of there being no one to stop you from doing so, you may
29 distribute modified versions to others as well.
30
31 Because the present developer, maintainer and distributor of this code is me
32 and not TI, I argue that my granting of all of the above freedoms to the user
33 community should supercede the lack of such grant from TI, and that my work has
34 the right to be treated as Free Software.
