Keen Themes Team: Template Oswald

Thank you to KeenThemes for granting us a custom license to use their amazing Template Oswald for Django-Awesome UI

KeenThemes HTML/CSS/JS components are allowed for use only within the Django-Awesome product
and restricted to be used in a resealable HTML template that can compete with KeenThemes products anyhow.

The Django-Awesome UI (HTML, CSS and JS components) based on this theme is allowed for use only within the Django-Awesome product
and therefore cannot be used in derivative works/products without an explicit grant from the Riso Tech Team.
