  Seriously, the license is very long and full of legalese. It may be
a bit hard to understand what exactly is and isn't allowed.

  Perhaps a shortened (but in no way formal/official) version which
just tells plain and simple, using clear examples, what can and cannot
be done?
  A big warning could be put in the beginning saying something along the
lines of "this is not the official usage license, this just presents in
simpler terms what the license allows and forbids, but is in no way
legally valid nor complete; if in doubt, read the actual license".
