| copyleft-next 0.3.1 ("this License") |
| Release date: 2016-04-29 |
| |
| 1. 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. |
| |
| If the Derived Work includes material licensed under the GPL, You may |
| instead license the Derived Work under 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 compliance with such |
| other license would not conflict with any conditions stated in other |
| sections of this 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 direct and indirect 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 3 through 5. |
| |
| 8. Copyleft Sunset |
| |
| The conditions in sections 3 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. |
