+PolyMC is a custom launcher for Minecraft that focuses on predictability, long term stability and simplicity.

+This is a **fork** of the MultiMC Launcher and not endorsed by MultiMC. The PolyMC community felt that the maintainer was not acting in the spirit of Free Software so this fork was made. Read "[Why was this fork made?](https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/wiki/FAQ)" on the wiki for more details.

## Forking/Redistributing/Custom builds policy
-We keep MultiMC open source because we think it's important to be able to see the source code for a project like this, and we do so using the Apache license.
-
-Part of the reason for using the Apache license is that we don't want people using the "MultiMC" name when redistributing the project. This means people must take the time to go through the source code and remove all references to "MultiMC", including but not limited to the project icon and the title of windows, (no *MultiMC-fork* in the title).
-
-Apache covers reasonable use for the name - a mention of the project's origins in the About dialog and the license is acceptable. However, it should be abundantly clear that the project is a fork *without* implying that you have our blessing.
