+<h2>Notice</h2>
+<p>
+This
+Agreement is a Free Software
+license agreement that is the result of
+discussions between its authors in order to ensure compliance with
+the two main principles guiding its drafting:</p>
+<ul>
+<li> firstly,
+compliance with the principles governing the distribution of Free Software:
+access to source code, broad rights granted to users,
+</li>
+<li>
+secondly, the election of a governing law, French law, with which it is
+conformant, both as regards the law of torts and
+intellectual property law, and the protection that it offers to
+both authors and holders of the economic rights over software.
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The
+authors of the
+CeCILL<sup><a href="#footnote1">1</a></sup>

+<h2>Preamble</h2>
+<p>The
+purpose of this Free Software
+license
+agreement
+is to grant users
+the right to modify and redistribute the software governed by this
+license within the framework of an open source
+distribution model.
+</p>
+<p>The
+exercising of these rights is conditional upon certain obligations
+for users so as to preserve this status
+for all subsequent
+redistributions.</p>
+<p>In consideration of access to
+the source code and the rights to copy,
+modify and redistribute granted by the license, users are provided only
+with a limited warranty and the
+software's author, the holder of the economic rights, and the
+successive licensors only have limited liability.
+</p>
+<p>In
+this respect,
+the risks
+associated with loading, using, modifying and/or developing or
+reproducing the software by the user
+are brought to the user's attention,
+given its  Free Software
+status,
+which may make it
+complicated to use,
+with the result that its use is
+reserved for developers and experienced professionals having in-depth
+computer knowledge.
+Users are therefore encouraged to load and test the suitability of the
+software as regards their requirements in conditions enabling the security of
+their systems and/or data to be ensured and, more generally, to use and
+operate it in the same conditions of security. This Agreement may be freely
+reproduced and published, provided it is not altered, and that no
+provisions are either added or removed
+herefrom.</p>
+<p>This
+Agreement may apply to any or all software for which the holder of
+the economic rights decides to submit the use
+thereof to its provisions.</p>
