We make this software available free of charge for not-for-profit purposes, as a service to the networking community, and to further the development and use of quality software for open network communication. We encourage your comments and questions if you have ideas, things you would like to see in future versions, or things you would like to contribute.

The Z'mbol Information System represents the commercial variant of Zebra. It includes full support; additional functionality and performance-boosting features, and it has what we think is a very exciting development path.
