Licence

CMSimple is available under four different licenses:

1. Commercial Licence - This licence will protect your modifications against the copyleft requirements in GPL3/AGPL3 at one specific domain. In addition, this licence will allow you to remove the required link from templates by Dotcomwebdesign.com for use at the specified domain. If you use CMSimple under the AGPL3 or Linkware Licence, the Commercial Licence will allow you to remove the CMSimple Legal Notices / "Powered by CMSimple"-link at the specified domain.
   
   We recommend that commercial organisations do purchase a commercial licence for CMSimple. Read more here...

2. AGPL3 - You must keep a convenient and prominently visible feature on every generated page that displays the CMSimple Legal Notices. The required link to the CMSimple Legal Notices must be static, visible and readable, and the text in the CMSimple Legal Notices may not be altered.
   - Read the AGPL3 and the CMSimple Legal Notices.
   
   
3. Linkware / CMSimple Link Requirement Licence - Same as AGPL, but instead of keeping a link to the CMSimple Legal Notices, you must place a static, visible and readable link to www.cmsimple.org with the text or an image stating "Powered by CMSimple" on every generated page (place it in the template).
   - Read the linkware licence.
   
   
4. GPL3 - To all Open Source enthusiasts CMSimple is also released under the GPL3 licence with no link requirements. You may not remove any copyright information from the files, and any modifications will fall under the copyleft conditions in the GPL 3. Read the GPL3.

None of the licenses allows you to change or delete the copyright notice in the top comment of the php-files.
