*Preamble* The Japanese version of this guideline (http://crvipton.jpn.org/guideline/) is the only normative version. This translated version is only intended for informative use. #日本語が原版であるとの前書き追加(W3Cの規格文書を参考)
Q1. Is Teto a Vocaloid from Crypton? A1. No. She is not a vocaloid. Though she was introduced first as "a new voaloid", it was an April fool joke. Some VIPPERs (see "what's VIPPER?" below) created a parody page "VOCALOID 04 KASANE Teto" for the April fools' day 2008. There is no relation between KASANE Teto and Crypton's VOCALOIDs .
Q1a. What's VIPPER? A1a. A "VIPPER" is the nickname of a regular in "News Flash VIP (ニュー速VIP: Nyu-soku VIP)" BBS in 2ちゃんねる (http://takeshima.2ch.net/news4vip/). Note none of them is a true vip ;-) #VIPPER説明追加
Q3. Does Teto sing? A3. Yes, she does. Voice library of KASANE Teto is developed by volunteers, mostly with a singer-voice synthesizer software "UTAU". You can ask you own Teto to sing any songs, cover or original!
This is an instruction movie to install UTAU and Teto library. (This is *in Japanese*, you need Niconico-Douga account to see it.) (Thanks to UTAU author, Mr. Ameya!)
Q4. Can I make fan-fics of Teto, like fan-pic and fan-music using Teto voice library? A4. Yes, you can! You can freely create fan-musics with UTAU voice library or draw fan-pics. However, commercial use of Teto (either her character design or her voice) is not permitted. #音声とキャラクターデザインが混同されているのを修正
Q5. Is there any rules for publishing Teto work? A5. There is basically no restriction in publishing your Teto related works. (A general direction) When you publish your work at a certain upload site, please follow its upload and usage rules. Some upload sites are only limited for certain characters.
Q6. I want to introduce Teto. A6. There is no restriction in introducing Teto and making a link to Teto official page. We are appreciated if you add a link to Teto official home page (http://crvipton.jpn.org/) upon introduction.
Q6a. I want to mirror Teto official site contents. A6b. これちょっと微妙な気がするけどどうしますか?(旧版があらぬところに残るかも)
Q6b. I want to translate Teto official site contents to other languages. A6b. We will be greatly happy. Please let us know when you made one. We'd like to make a link from the official site, both for directing users and keeping information updated. 一案ということで……
Q7. Can I mirror Teto voice library? A7. Unfortunately not. Teto voice library is (always) under development and there is no stable version. In order to prevent confusion, redistribution of voice library is prohibited.
