You do not need my permission to use it, and you will never face any restrictions or legal consequences for using it.   Attribution to me as the creator is welcome but not required. What is important is that nobody else may claim to have created Chivabwe. The authorship and origin of this writing system remain with me, and that fact cannot be transferred or taken away.   By using Chivabwe, you are free to:   Write and publish in it without permission.   Teach it in schools, universities, or communities.   Share examples online or in print.     This ensures Chivabwe is open and usable by everyone, while still protecting its true origin.
