****** ELECTRONIC DICTIONARY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT GROUP ******
****** GENERAL DICTIONARY LICENCE STATEMENT ******
1. Introduction
In March 2000, James William Breen assigned ownership of the copyright of the
dictionary files assembled, coordinated and edited by him to the The Electronic
Dictionary Research and Development Group, then at at Monash University
(hereafter "the Group"), on the understanding that the Group will foster the
development of the dictionary files, and will utilize all monies received for
use of the files for the further development of the files, and for research
into computer lexicography and electronic dictionaries.
This document outlines the licence arrangement put in place by The Group for
usage of the files. It replaces all previous copyright and licence statements
applying to the files.
2. Application
This licence statement and copyright notice applies to the following dictionary
files, the associated documentation files, and any data files which are derived
from them.
* JMDICT - Japanese-Multilingual Dictionary File - the Japanese and English
components (the German, French and Russian translational equivalents are
covered by separate copyright held by the compilers of that material.)
* EDICT - Japanese-English Electronic DICTionary File
* ENAMDICT - Japanese Names File
* COMPDIC - Japanese-English Computing and Telecommunications Terminology
File
* KANJIDIC2 - File of Information about the Kanji in JIS X 0208, JIS X 0212
and JIS X 0213 in XML format.
* KANJIDIC - File of Information about the 6,355 Kanji in the JIS X 0208
Standard (special conditions apply)
* KANJD212 - File of Information about the 5,801 Supplementary Kanji in the
JIS X 0212 Standard
* EDICT-R - romanized version of the EDICT file. (NB: this file has been
withdrawn from circulation, and all sites carrying it are requested to
remove their copies.)
* RADKFILE/KRADFILE - files relating to the decomposition of the 6,355
kanji in JIS X 0208 into their visible components.
Copyright over the documents covered by this statement is held by James William
BREEN and The Electronic Dictionary Research and Development Group.
3. Licence Conditions
[http://creativecommons.org/images/public/somerights20.gif]
The dictionary files are made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-
ShareAlike Licence (V3.0). The Licence Deed can be viewed here, and the full
Licence Code is here.
In summary (extract from the Licence Deed):
_____________________________________________________________________________
|You are free: |
| * to Share - to copy, distribute and transmit the work |
| * to Remix - to adapt the work |
|Under the following conditions: |
| * Attribution. You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the|
| author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse |
| you or your use of the work). |
| * Share Alike. If you alter, transform, or build upon this work, you may |
| distribute the resulting work only under the same, similar or a |
| compatible licence. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
For attribution of these files, you must:
a. in the case of publishing significant extracts of the files, or material
based on significant extracts of the files, e.g. in a published
dictionary or in vocabulary lists, clearly acknowledge that you used the
files for this purpose;
b. in the case of a software package or WWW server, etc. which uses the
files or incorporates data from the files, you must:
i. acknowledge the usage and source of the files in the documentation,
publicity material, WWW site of the package/server, etc.;
ii. provide copies of the documentation and licence files (in the case
of software packages). Where the application packaging does not
provide for the inclusion of such files (e.g. with iPhone
applications), it is sufficient to provide links, as per the next
point;
iii. provide links to either local copies of the documentation and
licence files or to the locations of the files at Monash University
or at the EDRDG site.
If a WWW server is providing a dictionary function or an on-screen
display of words from the files, the acknowledgement must be made
on each screen display, e.g. in the form of a message at the foot
of the screen or page. If, however, material from the files is
mixed with information from other sources, it is sufficient to
provide a general acknowledgement of the sources as described
above.
For the EDICT, JMdict and KANJIDIC files, the following URLs may be
used or quoted:
# http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/edict.html
# http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/jmdict.html
# http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/kanjidic.html
See this_page for samples of possible acknowledgement text.
Note that in all cases, the addition of material to the files or to extracts
from the files does not remove or in any way diminish the Group's copyright
over the files.
Note also that provided the conditions above are met, there is NO restriction
placed on commercial use of the files. The files can be bundled with software
and sold for whatever the developer wants to charge. Software using these files
does not have to be under any form of open-source licence.
Where use of the files results in a financial return to the user, it is
suggested that the user make a donation to the Group to assist with the
continued development of the files. There are several ways of donating:
* send a cheque (check) in any currency made out to "Monash University".

been infringed. The Group asserts its intention to rectify immediately any
breach of copyright brought to its attention.
Any individual or organization in possession of copies of the files, upon
becoming aware that a possible copyright infringement may be present in the
files, must undertake to contact the Group immediately with details of the
possible infringement.
