Downloading Cormas

First step: Cormas users' charter

Cormas is a free program and can be downloaded by anyone. However, we invite users to read and respect the following charter:

• Cormas is protected by authors' rights.
• Cormas was developed within a framework of scientific research on the environment and development. It was born from the combination of several approaches to simulation-model construction of multiple-use ecosystems. This originating principle of placing it in the public domain and sharing of experiences characterizes the spirit with which Cormas should be used. It is a tool for exchanges and dialogs regarding the problem of natural-resources management. Users are welcome to use this software in a larger framework but should respect the same usage spirit.
• You can download Cormas after filling in a form which will be sent to the authors (we would like to know the context within which you intend using the software, no information you submit will be distributed or used for commercial purposes).
• You are free to distribute Cormas on the condition of also including the recommendations of this charter, specially on authors' rights and the necessity of identifying yourself as a user.
• If you want to modify Cormas, feel free to do so but do not distribute the modified version. Rather, send your remarks and modification to the user group (via the forum).
• Cormas comes with no guarantees whatsoever. All risks are assumed by the user.
