Mambo is free software released under the GNU General Public License. A copy of this license is included with your copy of Mambo and can also be found at http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl.html. Unofficial translations can also be found at http://www.fsf.org/licenses/translations.html.

 

1. Who owns the copyright to Mambo?
The copyright to the Mambo brand and logo is held by Mambo Foundation, a non profit corporation organized under the laws of Australia and run by the membership. Copyrights in the code are owned by the authors. You should be aware that under the GPL who holds the copyright to the code bears little relation to the use of the code. The terms of the GPL, rathe than copyright law, spell out how the code may be used, modified, and distributed.

2. Are there any restrictions to your use of Mambo?
The GNU GPL grants you the freedom to use the software for whatever purpose you see fit.

3. May I charge money to distribute Mambo?
The GPL allows everyone the freedom to do this. The right to charge money to distribute Mambo is part of the definition of "free" software. When people think of "selling software", they usually imagine doing it the way most companies do it, making the software 'proprietary' rather than free. So to avoid ambiguity, you may charge to distribute the software and any other service you provide along the way. You may not charge for the software itself. Remember if someone pays your fee, the GPL also gives him or her the freedom to pass on the software with or without a fee.

4. May I remove "powered by Mambo, Copyright Mambo Foundation” from the footer?
Yes you can, although, we would hope that you would retain it to help spread the word about Mambo.

5. May I remove the "copyright" statements from the source code to Mambo?
No, you must keep all copyright notices and credits in the source code.

6. Does the GPL mean that my web site content is also GPL?
No. The copyright and license of Mambo does not cover the content that you create. Using Mambo does not place any restrictions, legally, on the license or copyright you use for the content of your web site.

7. I have modified Mambo for my own web site. Do I have to release these modifications?
The GPL permits anyone to make a modified version for their own use without the requirement to distribute it or pass on those changes to others.

8. I have made a modification (hack) to the Mambo core code. Do I have to release it under the GPL?
If you chose to distribute your modifications to others it must be released under the same terms that you received the original code. So your modifications must be released under the GPL. You may of course in this case modify the headers for the source code to include your own copyright statement after the original copyright statements. If you do so, you must clearly annotate in the source code your amendments, changes or additions.

9. I have written a Component, Module, Template for Mambo. Do I have to release it under the GPL?
No. The GPL allows you to write your own extensions for Mambo and to release those extensions under whatever license you choose.

10. I have written a Component, Module, Template for Mambo and released it under the GPL and I charge a fee for it, but web site X is giving it away for free! Is that right?
Remember if someone pays your fee, the GPL also gives him or her the freedom to pass on the software with or without a fee because the GNU GPL license must go along with the distribution of the software.

11. May I purchase a copy of Mambo, which has the copyright statements removed?
No. Some GPL products are distributed that way (often called “dual licensing”) but Mambo is not.

12. I believe someone is in breach of the GPL, what should I do?
We would ask you to report it, but please first check all the facts before you send an e-mail to us at: Questo indirizzo email è protetto dagli spambots. È necessario abilitare JavaScript per vederlo..

13. Who has the power to enforce the GNU GPL license of Mambo?
Only the copyright holder, Mambo Foundation, has the power to do this. If the Mambo Development Team finds, or is made aware of, a breach of the GPL, they will report it to the Foundation for them to take any necessary action.

14. Web site X is using or offering my non-GPL Component, Module, Template without my permission, or in breach of its license, can you help me?
Whilst this is not within the remit or responsibility of Mambo, we are willing to act as intermediaries in this on your behalf. In most cases these situations arise out of simple misunderstandings and can be settled amicably. You should e-mail full details to Questo indirizzo email è protetto dagli spambots. È necessario abilitare JavaScript per vederlo..

15. What about translations of Mambo? Who owns those?
All translation files, as they are derived works of the original Mambo files, are licensed under the GNU/GPL.

5º DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO ORDINARIO
Evangelio: Lucas 5, 1 -11
 “En aquel tiempo, la gente se agolpaba alrededor de Jesús para oír la palabra de Dios, estando él a orillas del lago de Genesaret. Vio dos barcas que estaban junto a la orilla; los pescadores habían desembarcado y estaban lavando las redes. Jesús dijo a Simón:
- «No temas; desde ahora serás pescador de hombres. »
Ellos sacaron las barcas a tierra y, dejándolo todo, lo siguieron”.


THE WAYS OF THE SPIRIT

Christmas smile

This Christmas story is two thousand years old but ever new story! There are so many sad events happening every day and bringing us pain and sorrow. But time passes and all is forgotten. And if the story of a child who was born in a cave "in frost and cold" two thousand years ago even now remembers with great affection, then some special reason for it should exist. All ancient peoples had expected the Savior, who would solve all of their problems.
The prophet Isaiah seven hundred years before the coming of the Messiah spoke to his people: "... see the light coming, it will make the world shine with truth ...". Modern man wants justice, peace, prosperity for all, health, calm and quiet prevail throughout the world.

 

LOS CAMINOS DEL ESPIRITU

¡POR TU PAZ, SEÑOR!

¡POR TU PAZ, SEÑOR!
Porque en Ti confío
Porque en Ti espero
Y, de tu misericordia, agradezco tus desvelos
Y, de tu misericordia, espero tus caricias
Y, de tu misericordia, añoro tu abrazo
Y, de tu misericordia, deseo la paz verdadera
la paz que Tú sólo das
la paz que, sin Ti, no la puede alcanzar el mundo
                                                           Amén.

CUARESMA
“Queridos hermanos y hermanas, que este tiempo de Cuaresma encuentre a toda la Iglesia dispuesta y solícita a la hora de testimoniar a cuantos viven en la miseria material, moral y espiritual el mensaje evangélico, que se resume en el anuncio del amor del Padre misericordioso, listo para abrazar en Cristo a cada persona. Podremos hacerlo en la medida en que nos conformemos a Cristo, que se hizo pobre y nos enriqueció con su pobreza.


Preghiere

PERCHÉ E COME PREGARE ? Un pensiero

PERCHÉ  E  COME   PREGARE  ?
          Un pensiero


La preghiera come dialogo com Dio é un bene sommo, essendo una vera intimitá con Lui stesso. Come gli occhi del corpo vedendo la luce ne sono schiariti cosí anche l'anima che é tesa verso Dio viene illuminata dalla luce ineffabile della preghiera. Non deve essere frattanto una preghiera fatta per abitudine, ma che proceda dal cuore e non deve essere circonscritta a determinati tempi e ore ma fiorire continuamente notte e giorno. Non bisogna innalzare il nostro animo a Dio solamente quando attendiamo con tutto lo spirito alla preghiera. Occorre che anche quando siamo occupati in altre faccende sia nella cura verso i poveri sia in altre attivitá inpreziosite magari dalla generositá verso il prossimo, abbiamo il  desiderio e il ricordo di Dio, perché, insaporito dall'amore divino come da sale, tutto diventi cibo gostosissimo al Signore dell'universo. Possiamo godere continuamente di questo vantaggio, anzi, per tutta la vita se a questo tipo di preghiera dedichiamo il piú possibile del nostro tempo. La preghiera é la luce dell'anima, vera conoscenza di Dio, mediatrice tra Dio e l'uomo. L'anima elevata per mezzo suo in alto fino al cielo abbraccia il Signore con amplessi ineffabili.  La preghiera funge da augusta messaggera dinanzi a Dio  e allo stesso tempo rende felice l'anima perché appaga le sue aspirazioni, dovendo essere una preghiera autentica e non sole parole meccaniche.   Essa é um desiderio di Dio, un amore ineffabile che non proviene dagli uomini ma prodotto di una grazia divina. Di essa l'Apostolo dice: " non sappiamo pregare come conviene, ma lo spirito santo intercede per noi con gemiti inesprimibili."( Rom. 8.26b)  Se il  Signore da a qualcuno tale modo di pregare é una richezza da valorizare  e un cibo celeste che sazia l'anima. S elo ha gustato si accende il desiderio celeste per il Signore come un fuoco ardente che infiamma l'anima. Dobbiamo abbellire la nostra casa di modestia e umiltá mediante la pratica della preghiera e rendere splendida la nostra abitazione con la luce della giustizia e ornare le pareti con opere buone come una patina di oro puro e al posto dei muri e delle pietre preziose collocare la fede e la magnimitá ponendo ogni cosa in alto sul fastigio la preghiera e decoro di tutte le cose.  Solo cosí prepariamo al Signore una degna demora e cosí lo accoglieremo  in splendida reggia e  cosí trasformerai la tua anima in un tempio della sua presenza...........
