License Grants; No Trademark License + + Subject to the terms of this License, I grant You: + +a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright +license, to reproduce, Distribute, prepare derivative works of, publicly perform +and publicly display My Work. + +b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable patent +license under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, +and import Covered Works. + +This License does not grant any rights in My name, trademarks, service marks, +or logos. + + 2. Distribution: General Conditions + +You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that You (i) inform recipients +how they can obtain a copy of this License; (ii) satisfy the applicable conditions +of sections 3 through 6; and (iii) preserve all Legal Notices contained in +My Work (to the extent they remain pertinent). "Legal Notices" means copyright +notices, license notices, license texts, and author attributions, but does +not include logos, other graphical images, trademarks or trademark legends. + + 3. Conditions for Distributing Derived Works; Outbound GPL Compatibility + +If You Distribute a Derived Work, You must license the entire Derived Work +as a whole under this License, with prominent notice of such licensing. This +condition may not be avoided through such means as separate Distribution of +portions of the Derived Work. You may additionally license the Derived Work +under the GPL, so that the recipient may further Distribute the Derived Work +under either this License or the GPL. + + 4. Condition Against Further Restrictions; Inbound License Compatibility + +When Distributing a Covered Work, You may not impose further restrictions +on the exercise of rights in the Covered Work granted under this License. +This condition is not excused merely because such restrictions result from +Your compliance with conditions or obligations extrinsic to this License (such +as a court order or an agreement with a third party). + +However, You may Distribute a Covered Work incorporating material governed +by a license that is both OSI-Approved and FSF-Free as of the release date +of this License, provided that Your Distribution complies with such other +license. + + 5. Conditions for Distributing Object Code + +You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work, provided that you +accompany the Object Code with a URL through which the Corresponding Source +is made available, at no charge, by some standard or customary means of providing +network access to source code. + +If you Distribute the Object Code in a physical product or tangible storage +medium ("Product"), the Corresponding Source must be available through such +URL for two years from the date of Your most recent Distribution of the Object +Code in the Product. However, if the Product itself contains or is accompanied +by the Corresponding Source (made available in a customarily accessible manner), +You need not also comply with the first paragraph of this section. + +Each recipient of the Covered Work from You is an intended third-party beneficiary +of this License solely as to this section 5, with the right to enforce its +terms. + + 6. Symmetrical Licensing Condition for Upstream Contributions + +If You Distribute a work to Me specifically for inclusion in or modification +of a Covered Work (a "Patch"), and no explicit licensing terms apply to the +Patch, You license the Patch under this License, to the extent of Your copyright +in the Patch. This condition does not negate the other conditions of this +License, if applicable to the Patch. + + 7. Nullification of Copyleft/Proprietary Dual Licensing + +If I offer to license, for a fee, a Covered Work under terms other than a +license that is OSI-Approved or FSF-Free as of the release date of this License +or a numbered version of copyleft-next released by the Copyleft-Next Project, +then the license I grant You under section 1 is no longer subject to the conditions +in sections 2 through 5. + + 8. Copyleft Sunset + +The conditions in sections 2 through 5 no longer apply once fifteen years +have elapsed from the date of My first Distribution of My Work under this +License. + + 9. Pass-Through + +When You Distribute a Covered Work, the recipient automatically receives a +license to My Work from Me, subject to the terms of this License. + + 10. Termination + + Your license grants under section 1 are automatically terminated if You + +a) fail to comply with the conditions of this License, unless You cure such +noncompliance within thirty days after becoming aware of it, or + +b) initiate a patent infringement litigation claim (excluding declaratory +judgment actions, counterclaims, and cross-claims) alleging that any part +of My Work directly or indirectly infringes any patent. + +Termination of Your license grants extends to all copies of Covered Works +You subsequently obtain. Termination does not terminate the rights of those +who have received copies or rights from You subject to this License. + +To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary merely +for running it, such permission is not terminable. + + 11. Later License Versions + +The Copyleft-Next Project may release new versions of copyleft-next, designated +by a distinguishing version number ("Later Versions"). Unless I explicitly +remove the option of Distributing Covered Works under Later Versions, You +may Distribute Covered Works under any Later Version. + + 12. No Warranty + +My Work is provided "as-is", without warranty. You bear the risk of using +it. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Distributor of My Work +excludes the implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular +purpose and non-infringement. + + 13. Limitation of Liability + +To the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will any Distributor +of My Work be liable to You for any damages whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, +special, incidental, or consequential damages, whether arising under contract, +tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even where the Distributor knew +or should have known about the possibility of such damages. + + 14. Severability + +The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License does not +affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this License. Such +provision is to be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid +and enforceable. + + 15. Definitions + +"Copyleft-Next Project" means the project that maintains the source code repository +at <https://gitorious.org/copyleft-next/> as of the release date of this License. + +"Corresponding Source" of a Covered Work in Object Code form means (i) the +Source Code form of the Covered Work; (ii) all scripts, instructions and similar +information that are reasonably necessary for a skilled developer to generate +such Object Code from the Source Code provided under (i); and (iii) a list +clearly identifying all Separate Works (other than those provided in compliance +with (ii)) that were specifically used in building and (if applicable) installing +the Covered Work (for example, a specified proprietary compiler including +its version number). Corresponding Source must be machine-readable. + + "Covered Work" means My Work or a Derived Work. + +"Derived Work" means a work of authorship that copies from, modifies, adapts, +is based on, is a derivative work of, transforms, translates or contains all +or part of My Work, such that copyright permission is required. The following +are not Derived Works: (i) Mere Aggregation; (ii) a mere reproduction of My +Work; and (iii) if My Work fails to explicitly state an expectation otherwise, +a work that merely makes reference to My Work. + +"Distribute" means to distribute, transfer or make a copy available to someone +else, such that copyright permission is required. + + "Distributor" means Me and anyone else who Distributes a Covered Work. + + "FSF-Free" means classified as 'free' by the Free Software Foundation. + +"GPL" means a version of the GNU General Public License or the GNU Affero +General Public License. + +"I"/"Me"/"My" refers to the individual or legal entity that places My Work +under this License. "You"/"Your" refers to the individual or legal entity +exercising rights in My Work under this License. A legal entity includes each +entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such +legal entity. "Control" means (a) the power to direct the actions of such +legal entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (b) ownership of more than +fifty percent of the outstanding shares or beneficial ownership of such legal +entity. + +"Licensed Patents" means all patent claims licensable royalty-free by Me, +now or in the future, that are necessarily infringed by making, using, or +selling My Work, and excludes claims that would be infringed only as a consequence +of further modification of My Work. + +"Mere Aggregation" means an aggregation of a Covered Work with a Separate +Work. + +"My Work" means the particular work of authorship I license to You under this +License. + + "Object Code" means any form of a work that is not Source Code. + +"OSI-Approved" means approved as 'Open Source' by the Open Source Initiative. + +"Separate Work" means a work that is separate from and independent of a particular +Covered Work and is not by its nature an extension or enhancement of the Covered +Work, and/or a runtime library, standard library or similar component that +is used to generate an Object Code form of a Covered Work. + +"Source Code" means the preferred form of a work for making modifications +to it. |
