Kaaval Koḍi
Public Deed of Commons Release

பொதுவுடைமை சாசனம்Commons Deed — Kaaval Koḍi

The Transformative League of Tamil Eelam (TLTE), a Community Interest Company under the laws of the United Kingdom, hereby proposes the Kaaval Koḍiகாவல் கொடி, the Watching Standard — as the permanent civilisational standard of Iṇai Eelam (இணை ஈழம், Joined Eelam), and releases it into the civilisational commons.

Authority. TLTE claims no sovereign authority to give a flag to a people. The standard is proposed, not imposed. The diaspora and the homeland may adopt it, amend it through the process named below, or refuse it. The standard stands or falls on its own merits, over generations, not on the authority of any institution.

First binding. TLTE binds itself to the standard before releasing it. TLTE may not own the standard, monetise the standard, license the standard, or assert exclusive control over reproduction of the standard. This binding is not amendable by TLTE.

Commons. Any person, family, organisation, or community may print, fly, embroider, tattoo, render, or reproduce the Kaaval Koḍi for non-commercial civic, cultural, ceremonial, educational, or personal use without permission and without fee. The canonical form is published on this site under the Semiotic Key.

No owner. The Kaaval Koḍi has no copyright holder, no trademark holder, and no licensing authority. If TLTE dissolves, the standard endures. If TLTE acts against the standard, the standard endures against TLTE.

No partisan capture. The Kaaval Koḍi may not be adopted as the official insignia of any political party, armed group, religious order, caste association, or government body. Any such adoption is a violation of the deed and may be repudiated in public by any reader.

No proscribed proximity. The Kaaval Koḍi may not be displayed in combination with the emblems of any organisation proscribed under the United Kingdom Terrorism Act 2000 or equivalent statutes of jurisdictions in which Tamils reside. The discipline of the standard is its lawfulness.

Amendment. The canonical form is fixed for the Aarambam–Nilaiththanmai bridge era. It may be amended only by a public, multi-generational process: a published proposal, a Continuity-Council resolution recorded in the append-only changelog, and a minimum era-week reflection period during which any reader may file a public objection. No amendment may be made by any single person, including the founder.

Singular standard. Kaaval Koḍi is the sole Joining Tiger Standard of Iṇai Eelam. No prior draft or working version is recognised or kept in circulation; earlier iterations have been retired from the archive.

Era. This deed is dated in the Bridge era — Aarambam → Nilaiththanmai — and is recorded in the Continuity Changelog. No calendar date is asserted. The era marker is the only timestamp the standard carries.
