+                     Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+    59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+ The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+ freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the GNU General Public
+ License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+ software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.  This
+ General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+ Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+ using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+ the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to
+ your programs, too.
+
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+ price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+ have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+ this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+ if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+ in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+ anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+ These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+ distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+ For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+ gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+ you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+ source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their
+ rights.
+
+ We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+ (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+ distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+ Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+ that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+ software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+ want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+ that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+ authors' reputations.
+
+ Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+ patents.  We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+ program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+ program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+ patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+ modification follow.
+
+                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+  TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+   0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+ a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+ under the terms of this General Public License.  The "Program", below,
+ refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+ means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+ that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+ either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+ language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+ the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+ Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+ covered by this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of
+ running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+ is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+ Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+ Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+    1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+  source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+  conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+  copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+  notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+  and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+  along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+  you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+    2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+  of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+  distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+  above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+      a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+      stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+      b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+      whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+      part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+      parties under the terms of this License.
+
+      c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+      when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+      interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+      announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+      notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+      a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+      these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+      License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+      does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+      the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+  
+  These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If
+  identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+  and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+  themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+  sections when you distribute them as separate works.  But when you
+  distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+  on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+  this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+  entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+  
+  Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+  your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+  exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+  collective works based on the Program.
+  
+  In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+  with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+  a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+  the scope of this License.
+  
+    3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+  under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+  Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+  
+      a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+      source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+      1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+  
+      b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+      years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+      cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+      machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+      distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+      customarily used for software interchange; or,
+  
+      c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+      to distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is
+      allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+      received the program in object code or executable form with such
+      an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+  
+  The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+  making modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source
+  code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+  associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+  control compilation and installation of the executable.  However, as a
+  special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+  anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+  form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+  operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+  itself accompanies the executable.
+  
+  If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+  access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+  access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+  distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+  compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+  
+    4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+  except as expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt
+  otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+  void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+  However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+  this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+  parties remain in full compliance.
+  
+    5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+  signed it.  However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+  distribute the Program or its derivative works.  These actions are
+  prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.  Therefore, by
+  modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+  Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+  all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+  the Program or works based on it.
+  
+    6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+  Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+  original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+  these terms and conditions.  You may not impose any further
+  restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+  You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+  this License.
+  
+    7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+  infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+  conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+  otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+  excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot
+  distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+  License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+  may not distribute the Program at all.  For example, if a patent
+  license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+  all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+  the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+  refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+  
+  If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+  any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+  apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+  circumstances.
+  
+  It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+  patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+  such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+  integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+  implemented by public license practices.  Many people have made
+  generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+  through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+  system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+  to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+  impose that choice.
+  
+  This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+  be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+  
+    8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+  certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+  original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+  may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+  those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+  countries not thus excluded.  In such case, this License incorporates
+  the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+  
+    9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+  of the General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+  be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+  address new problems or concerns.
+  
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program
+  specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+  later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+  either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+  Software Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of
+  this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+  Foundation.
+  
+    10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+  programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+  to ask for permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+  Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+  make exceptions for this.  Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+  of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+  of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+  
+                              NO WARRANTY
+  
+    11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+  FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN
+  OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+  PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+  OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+  MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+  TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE
+  PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+  REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+  
+    12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+  WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+  REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+  INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+  OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+  TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+  YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+  PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+  POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+  
+                      END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

+= Matriarch
+
+* http://rubyworks.github.com/matriarch
+* http://github.comd/rubyworks/matriarch
+
+
+== DESCRIPTION:
+
+Matriarch is an experimental implementation of *trait matricies*.
+Trait matricies can be thought of linked grid of method nodes,
+like linked lists but each node is connect in one direction to
+it's super and sub methods, and in the other with its fellow
+categorical set, something aking to a module.
+
+Please kepp in mind this library is far from any sort of full
+working order, and is provided "AS IS" primarily as means to
+further exploration into the concept of *trait matricies*.
+
+
+== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
+
+* Very flexible inheritance system
+* Experimental implementation
+
+
+== RELEASE NOTES:
+
+Please see HISTORY file.
+
+
+== SYNOPSIS:
+
+Matriarch uses +to+ instead of +def+ to define method *nodes*.
+This was done simply becuase it was much easier to code then
+using Ruby's method_added hook.
+
+  class C < Matriarch::TraitsObject
+    to :x do
+      "C#x"
+    end
+    to :s do
+      self
+    end
+  end
+
+  c = C.new
+
+  c.x.assert == "C#x"
+
+See RDocs for more information.
+
+
+== INSTALLATION:
+
+Per the usual RubyGems:
+
+  $ sudo gem install matriarch
