The LATEX2HTML-FU fixes, and the other software needed to run LATEX2HTML, including LATEX2HTML itself, come with absolutely no warranty.
You cannot copy or share your installation with others. Selling it is illegal.
Except for my own stuff, nothing else is public domain, but
protected by copyright laws, licenses, and the occasional patent. You
are responsible for reading, and abiding by, the legal notices in
every archive involved in the installation. I put the central
legal notices of the packages involved in directory
C:\l2hsup\copright.
The file l2hfu3.exe contains the full original LATEX2HTML
99.2 distribution, but when you run any of my installation scripts,
you will replace files in this distribution. Run l2hfu3.exe
in a temporary folder to obtain the unmodified distribution.
I am not aware of any patents that are still current on the netpbm software involved. Then again, I may be wrong.
Possibly, some netpbm software may require the source code to be
distributed with the binaries. Only the source code I wrote myself is
included (in the C:\l2hsup\doc directory.) Sources or the netpbm
programs may be obtained from the
netpbm homepage.
I assume this satisfies the spirit of those pre-web requirements.
Otherwise let me know.
emTeX is a very good, but no longer maintained version of TEX
written by Eberhard Mattes. I may be violating the requirement to
distribute all files listed in README.ENG in archive
l2hmtx.exe, but again, the full source can be obtained from
the TEX Users Group.
It is essential you do not redistribute the personal-use version
intended to work with LATEX2HTML. There is also a
large number of packages written by a variety of authors included,
for which copyright notices can again be found at
the TEX Users Group.
Tomas Rokicki wrote dvips, and Guido Sawade adapted it to emTeX. I made some small edits to the configuration files to get postscript fonts to work. The copyright situation is unknown to me. Just don't redistribute.
I think that summarizes all software involved, except the ones you install yourself, such as perl and ghostscript.
