## What is CARLOS

CARLOS (Clinical Assisting Recording Ledger Open Source) is an electronic medical records system forked from the OpenO EMR project. This software is licensed under the **GNU General Public License (GPL) v2**. The CARLOS contributors and the many others involved with development of this codebase believe strongly in the value of open-source software in healthcare. This license means:

1. **Freedom to Modify and Distribute**: You are free to modify and distribute the software, but any modifications or derived works must also be licensed under GPL v2. This ensures that the software remains open-source, and any improvements are shared back with the community.

2. **Source Code Availability**: If you distribute any modified versions or binaries, you must also provide access to the corresponding source code. This helps maintain transparency and allows other users to build on your changes.

3. **No Warranty or Liability**: As with all GPL-licensed software, CARLOS comes with **no warranty**, either express or implied. The software is provided "as is," meaning that CARLOS contributors and any others involved are not liable for any issues, damages, or legal claims arising from the use of the software.

CARLOS EMR continues to evolve through community-driven development, providing a robust solution tailored for modern healthcare challenges.
