Hey guys. ^-^
So... I've been looking around for a long time and haven't found any info on this. Not even a forum post. Nothing. I have these two UTAU that I'm working on and hope to release this summer. Things are going somewhat smoothly. The only problem is... I've never written a ToU or even a real readme file before. I mean, I've written a "please give credit" readme for my own USTs and stuff, but... nothing that was ever really professional like a Terms of Use. I have literally no idea how to go about writing one... so... how should I go about doing it?

- How do I layout rules without sounding overly pushy?
- What rules should I add?
- What rules should I avoid adding?
- How do I go about writing rules for religious usage? (I'm a Christian, and one day I might decide I want to cover/compose Christian songs. If I allow religious usage, I might not be comfortable if my UTAU are used for covers/originals of songs for other religions... and that wouldn't really be fair to other religions, would it? Is there a way to make a rule for something like this or would it be better to just prohibit religious usage all together or just stick to traditional anthems/holiday songs etc?)
- Any advice on sounding professional?
