  1. copyleft-next 0.3.0 ("this License")
  2. Release date: 2013-05-16
  3. 1. License Grants; No Trademark License
  4. Subject to the terms of this License, I grant You:
  5. a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
  6. copyright license, to reproduce, Distribute, prepare derivative works
  7. of, publicly perform and publicly display My Work.
  8. b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
  9. patent license under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell,
  10. offer for sale, and import Covered Works.
  11. This License does not grant any rights in My name, trademarks, service
  12. marks, or logos.
  13. 2. Distribution: General Conditions
  14. You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that You (i) inform
  15. recipients how they can obtain a copy of this License; (ii) satisfy the
  16. applicable conditions of sections 3 through 6; and (iii) preserve all
  17. Legal Notices contained in My Work (to the extent they remain
  18. pertinent). "Legal Notices" means copyright notices, license notices,
  19. license texts, and author attributions, but does not include logos,
  20. other graphical images, trademarks or trademark legends.
  21. 3. Conditions for Distributing Derived Works; Outbound GPL Compatibility
  22. If You Distribute a Derived Work, You must license the entire Derived
  23. Work as a whole under this License, with prominent notice of such
  24. licensing. This condition may not be avoided through such means as
  25. separate Distribution of portions of the Derived Work. You may
  26. additionally license the Derived Work under the GPL, so that the
  27. recipient may further Distribute the Derived Work under either this
  28. License or the GPL.
  29. 4. Condition Against Further Restrictions; Inbound License Compatibility
  30. When Distributing a Covered Work, You may not impose further
  31. restrictions on the exercise of rights in the Covered Work granted under
  32. this License. This condition is not excused merely because such
  33. restrictions result from Your compliance with conditions or obligations
  34. extrinsic to this License (such as a court order or an agreement with a
  35. third party).
  36. However, You may Distribute a Covered Work incorporating material
  37. governed by a license that is both OSI-Approved and FSF-Free as of the
  38. release date of this License, provided that Your Distribution complies
  39. with such other license.
  40. 5. Conditions for Distributing Object Code
  41. You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work, provided that
  42. you accompany the Object Code with a URL through which the Corresponding
  43. Source is made available, at no charge, by some standard or customary
  44. means of providing network access to source code.
  45. If you Distribute the Object Code in a physical product or tangible
  46. storage medium ("Product"), the Corresponding Source must be available
  47. through such URL for two years from the date of Your most recent
  48. Distribution of the Object Code in the Product. However, if the Product
  49. itself contains or is accompanied by the Corresponding Source (made
  50. available in a customarily accessible manner), You need not also comply
  51. with the first paragraph of this section.
  52. Each recipient of the Covered Work from You is an intended third-party
  53. beneficiary of this License solely as to this section 5, with the right
  54. to enforce its terms.
  55. 6. Symmetrical Licensing Condition for Upstream Contributions
  56. If You Distribute a work to Me specifically for inclusion in or
  57. modification of a Covered Work (a "Patch"), and no explicit licensing
  58. terms apply to the Patch, You license the Patch under this License, to
  59. the extent of Your copyright in the Patch. This condition does not
  60. negate the other conditions of this License, if applicable to the Patch.
  61. 7. Nullification of Copyleft/Proprietary Dual Licensing
  62. If I offer to license, for a fee, a Covered Work under terms other than
  63. a license that is OSI-Approved or FSF-Free as of the release date of this
  64. License or a numbered version of copyleft-next released by the
  65. Copyleft-Next Project, then the license I grant You under section 1 is no
  66. longer subject to the conditions in sections 2 through 5.
  67. 8. Copyleft Sunset
  68. The conditions in sections 2 through 5 no longer apply once fifteen
  69. years have elapsed from the date of My first Distribution of My Work
  70. under this License.
  71. 9. Pass-Through
  72. When You Distribute a Covered Work, the recipient automatically receives
  73. a license to My Work from Me, subject to the terms of this License.
  74. 10. Termination
  75. Your license grants under section 1 are automatically terminated if You
  76. a) fail to comply with the conditions of this License, unless You cure
  77. such noncompliance within thirty days after becoming aware of it, or
  78. b) initiate a patent infringement litigation claim (excluding
  79. declaratory judgment actions, counterclaims, and cross-claims)
  80. alleging that any part of My Work directly or indirectly infringes
  81. any patent.
  82. Termination of Your license grants extends to all copies of Covered
  83. Works You subsequently obtain. Termination does not terminate the
  84. rights of those who have received copies or rights from You subject to
  85. this License.
  86. To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary
  87. merely for running it, such permission is not terminable.
  88. 11. Later License Versions
  89. The Copyleft-Next Project may release new versions of copyleft-next,
  90. designated by a distinguishing version number ("Later Versions").
  91. Unless I explicitly remove the option of Distributing Covered Works
  92. under Later Versions, You may Distribute Covered Works under any Later
  93. Version.

  97. ** of using it. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each **

  107. ** (including negligence), or otherwise, even where the Distributor **
  108. ** knew or should have known about the possibility of such damages. **
  109. 14. Severability
  110. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License
  111. does not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of

  113. necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
