2 Release date: 2016-04-29
3
41. License Grants; No Trademark License
5
6 Subject to the terms of this License, I grant You:
7
8 a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
9 copyright license, to reproduce, Distribute, prepare derivative works
10 of, publicly perform and publicly display My Work.
11
12 b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
13 patent license under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell,
14 offer for sale, and import Covered Works.
15
16 This License does not grant any rights in My name, trademarks, service
17 marks, or logos.
18
192. Distribution: General Conditions
20
21 You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that You (i) inform
22 recipients how they can obtain a copy of this License; (ii) satisfy the
23 applicable conditions of sections 3 through 6; and (iii) preserve all
24 Legal Notices contained in My Work (to the extent they remain
25 pertinent). "Legal Notices" means copyright notices, license notices,
26 license texts, and author attributions, but does not include logos,
27 other graphical images, trademarks or trademark legends.
28
293. Conditions for Distributing Derived Works; Outbound GPL Compatibility
30
31 If You Distribute a Derived Work, You must license the entire Derived
32 Work as a whole under this License, with prominent notice of such
33 licensing. This condition may not be avoided through such means as
34 separate Distribution of portions of the Derived Work.
35
36 If the Derived Work includes material licensed under the GPL, You may
37 instead license the Derived Work under the GPL.
38
394. Condition Against Further Restrictions; Inbound License Compatibility
40
41 When Distributing a Covered Work, You may not impose further
42 restrictions on the exercise of rights in the Covered Work granted under
43 this License. This condition is not excused merely because such
44 restrictions result from Your compliance with conditions or obligations
45 extrinsic to this License (such as a court order or an agreement with a
46 third party).
47
48 However, You may Distribute a Covered Work incorporating material
49 governed by a license that is both OSI-Approved and FSF-Free as of the
50 release date of this License, provided that compliance with such
51 other license would not conflict with any conditions stated in other
52 sections of this License.
53
545. Conditions for Distributing Object Code
55
56 You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work, provided that
57 you accompany the Object Code with a URL through which the Corresponding
58 Source is made available, at no charge, by some standard or customary
59 means of providing network access to source code.
60
61 If you Distribute the Object Code in a physical product or tangible
62 storage medium ("Product"), the Corresponding Source must be available
63 through such URL for two years from the date of Your most recent
64 Distribution of the Object Code in the Product. However, if the Product
65 itself contains or is accompanied by the Corresponding Source (made
66 available in a customarily accessible manner), You need not also comply
67 with the first paragraph of this section.
68
69 Each direct and indirect recipient of the Covered Work from You is an
70 intended third-party beneficiary of this License solely as to this
71 section 5, with the right to enforce its terms.
72
736. Symmetrical Licensing Condition for Upstream Contributions
74
75 If You Distribute a work to Me specifically for inclusion in or
76 modification of a Covered Work (a "Patch"), and no explicit licensing
77 terms apply to the Patch, You license the Patch under this License, to
78 the extent of Your copyright in the Patch. This condition does not
79 negate the other conditions of this License, if applicable to the Patch.
80
817. Nullification of Copyleft/Proprietary Dual Licensing
82
83 If I offer to license, for a fee, a Covered Work under terms other than
84 a license that is OSI-Approved or FSF-Free as of the release date of this
85 License or a numbered version of copyleft-next released by the
86 Copyleft-Next Project, then the license I grant You under section 1 is no
87 longer subject to the conditions in sections 3 through 5.
88
898. Copyleft Sunset
90
91 The conditions in sections 3 through 5 no longer apply once fifteen
92 years have elapsed from the date of My first Distribution of My Work
93 under this License.
94
959. Pass-Through
96
97 When You Distribute a Covered Work, the recipient automatically receives
98 a license to My Work from Me, subject to the terms of this License.
99
10010. Termination
101
102 Your license grants under section 1 are automatically terminated if You
103
104 a) fail to comply with the conditions of this License, unless You cure
105 such noncompliance within thirty days after becoming aware of it, or
106
107 b) initiate a patent infringement litigation claim (excluding
108 declaratory judgment actions, counterclaims, and cross-claims)
109 alleging that any part of My Work directly or indirectly infringes
110 any patent.
111
112 Termination of Your license grants extends to all copies of Covered
113 Works You subsequently obtain. Termination does not terminate the
114 rights of those who have received copies or rights from You subject to
115 this License.
116
117 To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary
118 merely for running it, such permission is not terminable.
119
12011. Later License Versions
121
122 The Copyleft-Next Project may release new versions of copyleft-next,
123 designated by a distinguishing version number ("Later Versions").
124 Unless I explicitly remove the option of Distributing Covered Works
125 under Later Versions, You may Distribute Covered Works under any Later
126 Version.
127
128** 12. No Warranty **
129** **
130** My Work is provided "as-is", without warranty. You bear the risk **
131** of using it. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each **
132** Distributor of My Work excludes the implied warranties of title, **
133** merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and **
134** non-infringement. **
135
136** 13. Limitation of Liability **
137** **
138** To the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will any **
139** Distributor of My Work be liable to You for any damages **
140** whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, special, incidental, or **
141** consequential damages, whether arising under contract, tort **
142** (including negligence), or otherwise, even where the Distributor **
143** knew or should have known about the possibility of such damages. **
144
14514. Severability
146
147 The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License
148 does not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of
149 this License. Such provision is to be reformed to the minimum extent
150 necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
