30 SME Server is the leading Linux distribution for small and medium
31 enterprises. SME Server is brought to you by Koozali Foundation, Inc.,

33 for SME Server.
34
35 SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License and
36 is only possible through the efforts of the SME Server community.
37 However, the availability and quality of SME Server is dependent on

43 using SME Server for private purposes, we would appreciate you to contribute
44 within your means toward the costs associated with hosting, maintenance and
45 development.
46
47 b) If you are a company or an integrator and you are deploying SME Server in
48 the course of your work to generate revenue, we expect you to make a donation
49 commensurate with the level of revenue you generate and the number of servers
50 your have in the field. Please, help the project
