+In General
+----------
+
+liblzma is in the public domain.
+
+xz, xzdec, and lzmadec command line tools are in the public domain unless GNU
+getopt_long had to be compiled and linked in from the lib directory. The
+getopt_long code is under GNU LGPLv2.1+.
+
+All the documentation in the doc directory and most of the XZ Utils specific
+documentation files in other directories are in the public domain.
+
+Translated messages are in the public domain.
+
+You can do whatever you want with the files that have been put into the public
+domain. If you find public domain legally problematic, take the previous
+sentence as a license grant. If you still find the lack of copyright legally
+problematic, you have too many lawyers.
+
+As usual, this software is provided "as is", without any warranty.
+
+If you copy significant amounts of public domain code from XZ Utils into your
+project, acknowledging this somewhere in your software is polite (especially if
+it is proprietary, non-free software), but naturally it is not legally required.
+Here is an example of a good notice to put into "about box" or into
+documentation:
+
+ This software includes code from XZ Utils <http://tukaani.org/xz/>.
