Aya Licensing
=============

    Due to the fact that Aya is a fork of previously leaked proprietary Roblox
    source code, it is not possible to apply a traditional license to Aya.
    Therefore, all authors of custom non-proprietary code and related resources
    used in Aya hereby irrevocably waive all copyright and related rights to
    their contributions, to the maximum extent allowed by law.

    Please note that this waiver of copyright applies only to the non
    proprietary items found in Aya. Any proprietary code that may still exist
    in Aya remains subject to the copyright and licensing conditions imposed by
    its original authors or owners; in particular, Roblox Corporation.

    Aya uses a variety of third party dependencies. A list of all the third
    party dependencies used in Aya alongside a link to their respective license

    The authors of Aya have made a concerted effort to rid the original
    codebase of any and all proprietary or otherwise closed source
    dependencies, and to replace them with free and open source alternatives.
    The only proprietary or non-free items that still remain in this repository
    is code and artwork created by Roblox Corporation, which themselves have
    undergone substantial modification to the extent that they no longer
    resemble their original versions.

    It is the duty of anyone who uses Aya to be fully aware of the legal
    circumstances surrounding its use. The original authors of Aya expressly
    disclaim all liability for any and all uses of Aya, including, without
    limitation, any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or
    exemplary damages, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. The
    original authors of Aya further disclaim any and all responsibility for any
    third party's use or misuse of Aya.
