This is the LGPL'd component of libart. All functions needed for
running the Gnome canvas, and for printing support, will be going in
here. The GPL'd component will be getting various enhanced functions
for specific applications.

Libart is free software. It is also for sale. For information about
licensing libart, please contact Raph Levien
<raph@acm.org>. Contributions to the codebase are also very welcome,
but the copyright must be assigned in writing to preserve the
licensing flexibility.

======================================================================

NOTE: The TDE project has take over maintinance of this library,
starting with the sources from the final upstream release v2.3.21.

This allows the TDE project to resolve remaining issues that cause
problems or crashes within TDE.

This patched library is only available under the terms of the
GPL/LGPL, and is NOT for sale by the original author as mentioned
above, as patch copyright has NOT been transferred to the original
author and we have no plans to do so.
