| 2 | MOTOSOTO OPEN SOURCE LICENSE - Version 0.9.1 |
| 3 | This Motosoto Open Source License (the "License") applies to "Community |
| 4 | Portal Server" and related software products as well as any updatesor |
| 5 | maintenance releases of that software ("Motosoto Products") that are |
| 6 | distributed by Motosoto.Com B.V. ("Licensor"). Any Motosoto |
| 7 | Product licensed pursuant to this License is a "Licensed Product." Licensed |
| 8 | Product, in its entirety, is protected by Dutch copyright law. |
| 9 | This |
| 10 | License identifies the terms under which you may use, copy, distribute or modify |
| 11 | Licensed Product and has been submitted to the Open Software Initiative (OSI) |
| 12 | for approval. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | Preamble |
| 15 | |
| 16 | This Preamble is intended to describe, in plain English, the nature and scope of |
| 17 | this License. However, this Preamble is not a part of this license. The legal |
| 18 | effect of this License is dependent only upon the terms of the License and not |
| 19 | this Preamble. |
| 20 | This License complies with the Open Source Definition and has been approved by |
| 21 | Open Source Initiative. Software distributed under this License may be marked |
| 22 | as "OSI Certified Open Source Software." |
| 23 | |
| 24 | This License provides that: |
| 25 | |
| 26 | 1. You may use, sell or give away the Licensed Product, alone or as a |
| 27 | component of an aggregate software distribution containing |
| 28 | programs from several different sources. No royalty or other fee is |
| 29 | required. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | 2. Both Source Code and executable versions of the Licensed Product, |
| 32 | including Modifications made by previous Contributors, are |
| 33 | available for your use. (The terms "Licensed Product," "Modifications," |
| 34 | "Contributors" and "Source Code" are defined in the License.) |
| 35 | |
| 36 | 3. You are allowed to make Modifications to the Licensed Product, and you |
| 37 | can create Derivative Works from it. (The term "Derivative |
| 38 | Works" is defined in the License.) |
| 39 | |
| 40 | 4. By accepting the Licensed Product under the provisions of this License, |
| 41 | you agree that any Modifications you make to the Licensed |
| 42 | Product and then distribute are governed by the provisions of this |
| 43 | License. In particular, you must make the Source Code of your |
| 44 | Modifications available to others. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | 5. You may use the Licensed Product for any purpose, but the Licensor is |
| 47 | not providing you any warranty whatsoever, nor is the Licensor |
| 48 | accepting any liability in the event that the Licensed Product doesn`t |
| 49 | work properly or causes you any injury or damages. |
| 50 | |
| 51 | 6. If you sublicense the Licensed Product or Derivative Works, you may |
| 52 | charge fees for warranty or support, or for accepting indemnity |
| 53 | or liability obligations to your customers. You cannot charge for the |
| 54 | Source Code. |
| 55 | |
| 56 | 7. If you assert any patent claims against the Licensor relating to the |
| 57 | Licensed Product, or if you breach any terms of the License, your |
| 58 | rights to the Licensed Product under this License automatically |
| 59 | terminate. |
| 60 | |
| 61 | You may use this License to distribute your own Derivative Works, in which |
| 62 | case the provisions of this License will apply to your Derivative |
| 63 | Works just as they do to the original Licensed Product. |
| 64 | |
| 65 | Alternatively, you may distribute your Derivative Works under any other |
| 66 | OSI-approved Open Source license, or under a proprietary license of |
| 67 | your choice. If you use any license other than this License, however, you must |
| 68 | continue to fulfill the requirements of this License (including the |
| 69 | provisions relating to publishing the Source Code) for those portions of your |
| 70 | Derivative Works that consist of the Licensed Product, including |
| 71 | the files containing Modifications. |
| 72 | |
| 73 | New versions of this License may be published from time to time. You may |
| 74 | choose to continue to use the license terms in this version of the |
| 75 | License or those from the new version. However, only the Licensor has the right |
| 76 | to change the License terms as they apply to the Licensed |
| 77 | Product. |
| 78 | This License relies on precise definitions for certain terms. Those terms are |
| 79 | defined when they are first used, and the definitions are repeated for |
| 80 | your convenience in a Glossary at the end of the License. |
| 81 | |
| 82 | License Terms |
| 83 | |
| 84 | 1. Grant of License From Licensor. |
| 85 | |
| 86 | Licensor |
| 87 | hereby grants you a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license, subject to |
| 88 | third |
| 89 | party intellectual property claims, to do the following: |
| 90 | |
| 91 | a. Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and |
| 92 | distribute Licensed Product or portions thereof (including |
| 93 | Modifications as hereinafter defined), in both Source Code or as |
| 94 | an executable program. "Source Code" means the preferred |
| 95 | form for making modifications to the Licensed Product, including |
| 96 | all modules contained therein, plus any associated |
| 97 | interface definition files, scripts used to control compilation |
| 98 | and installation of an executable program, or a list of |
| 99 | differential comparisons against the Source Code of the Licensed |
| 100 | Product. |
| 101 | |
| 102 | b. Create Derivative Works (as that term is defined under Dutch |
| 103 | copyright law) of Licensed Product by adding to or deleting |
| 104 | from the substance or structure of said Licensed Product. |
| 105 | |
| 106 | c. Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or controlled |
| 107 | by Licensor, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, |
| 108 | and/or otherwise dispose of Licensed Product or portions thereof, |
| 109 | but solely to the extent that any such claim is necessary to |
| 110 | enable you to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or |
| 111 | otherwise dispose of Licensed Product or portions thereof or |
| 112 | Derivative Works thereof. |
| 113 | |
| 114 | 2. Grant of License to Modifications From |
| 115 | Contributor. |
| 116 | |
| 117 | "Modifications" means any additions to or |
| 118 | deletions from the substance or |
| 119 | structure of (i) a file containing Licensed Product, or (ii) any new file |
| 120 | that contains any part of Licensed Product. Hereinafter in this |
| 121 | License, the term "Licensed Product" shall include all previous |
| 122 | Modifications that you receive from any Contributor. By |
| 123 | application of the provisions in Section 4(a) below, each person or |
| 124 | entity who created or contributed to the creation of, and distributed, |
| 125 | a Modification (a "Contributor") hereby grants you a world-wide, |
| 126 | royalty-free, non-exclusive license, subject to third party |
| 127 | intellectual property claims, to do the following: |
| 128 | |
| 129 | a. Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and |
| 130 | distribute any Modifications created by such Contributor or |
| 131 | portions thereof, in both Source Code or as an executable program, |
| 132 | either on an unmodified basis or as part of Derivative |
| 133 | Works. |
| 134 | |
| 135 | b. Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by |
| 136 | Contributor, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, |
| 137 | and/or otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof, but |
| 138 | solely to the extent that any such claim is necessary to |
| 139 | enable you to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or |
| 140 | otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof or |
| 141 | Derivative Works thereof. |
| 142 | |
| 143 | 3. Exclusions From License Grant. |
| 144 | |
| 145 | Nothing in |
| 146 | this License shall be deemed to grant any rights to trademarks, copyrights, |
| 147 | patents, |
| 148 | trade secrets or any other intellectual property of Licensor or any |
| 149 | Contributor except as expressly stated herein. No patent license is |
| 150 | granted separate from the Licensed Product, for code that you delete from |
| 151 | the Licensed Product, or for combinations of the Licensed |
| 152 | Product with other software or hardware. No right is granted to the |
| 153 | trademarks of Licensor or any Contributor even if such marks are |
| 154 | included in the Licensed Product. Nothing in this License shall be |
| 155 | interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under different |
| 156 | terms from this License any code that Licensor otherwise would have a |
| 157 | right to license. |
| 158 | |
| 159 | 4. Your Obligations Regarding Distribution. |
| 160 | |
| 161 | a. Application of This License to Your |
| 162 | Modifications. As an express condition for your use of the Licensed |
| 163 | Product, you |
| 164 | hereby agree that any Modifications that you create or to which |
| 165 | you contribute, and which you distribute, are governed by the |
| 166 | terms of this License including, without limitation, Section 2. |
| 167 | Any Modifications that you create or to which you contribute |
| 168 | may be distributed only under the terms of this License or a |
| 169 | future version of this License released under Section 7. You must |
| 170 | include a copy of this License with every copy of the |
| 171 | Modifications you distribute. You agree not to offer or impose any |
| 172 | terms on any Source Code or executable version of the Licensed |
| 173 | Product or Modifications that alter or restrict the applicable |
| 174 | version of this License or the recipients` rights hereunder. |
| 175 | However, you may include an additional document offering the |
| 176 | additional rights described in Section 4(e). |
| 177 | |
| 178 | b. Availability of Source Code. You must make |
| 179 | available, under the terms of this License, the Source Code of the Licensed |
| 180 | Product and any Modifications that you distribute, either on the |
| 181 | same media as you distribute any executable or other form |
| 182 | of the Licensed Product, or via a mechanism generally accepted in |
| 183 | the software development community for the electronic |
| 184 | transfer of data (an "Electronic Distribution Mechanism"). The |
| 185 | Source Code for any version of Licensed Product or |
| 186 | Modifications that you distribute must remain available for at |
| 187 | least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became |
| 188 | available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version |
| 189 | of said Licensed Product or Modifications has been made |
| 190 | available. You are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code |
| 191 | version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution |
| 192 | Mechanism is maintained by a third party. |
| 193 | |
| 194 | c. Description of Modifications. You must cause any |
| 195 | Modifications that you create or to which you contribute, and which |
| 196 | you distribute, to contain a file documenting the additions, |
| 197 | changes or deletions you made to create or contribute to those |
| 198 | Modifications, and the dates of any such additions, changes or |
| 199 | deletions. You must include a prominent statement that the |
| 200 | Modifications are derived, directly or indirectly, from the |
| 201 | Licensed Product and include the names of the Licensor and any |
| 202 | Contributor to the Licensed Product in (i) the Source Code and |
| 203 | (ii) in any notice displayed by a version of the Licensed |
| 204 | Product you distribute or in related documentation in which you |
| 205 | describe the origin or ownership of the Licensed Product. |
| 206 | You may not modify or delete any preexisting copyright notices in |
| 207 | the Licensed Product. |
| 208 | |
| 209 | d. Intellectual Property Matters. |
| 210 | |
| 211 | i. Third Party Claims. If you have |
| 212 | knowledge that a license to a third party`s intellectual property right is |
| 213 | required |
| 214 | to exercise the rights granted by this License, you must |
| 215 | include a text file with the Source Code distribution titled |
| 216 | "LEGAL" that describes the claim and the party making the |
| 217 | claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will know |
| 218 | whom to contact. If you obtain such knowledge after you make |
| 219 | any Modifications available as described in Section |
| 220 | 4(b), you shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies |
| 221 | you make available thereafter and shall take other |
| 222 | steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or |
| 223 | newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who |
| 224 | received the Licensed Product from you that new knowledge |
| 225 | has been obtained. |
| 226 | |
| 227 | ii. Contributor APIs. If your |
| 228 | Modifications include an application programming interface ("API") and you have |
| 229 | knowledge of patent licenses that are reasonably necessary |
| 230 | to implement that API, you must also include this |
| 231 | information in the LEGAL file. |
| 232 | |
| 233 | iii. Representations. You represent that, |
| 234 | except as disclosed pursuant to 4(d)(i) above, you believe that any |
| 235 | Modifications you distribute are your original creations and |
| 236 | that you have sufficient rights to grant the rights |
| 237 | conveyed by this License. |
| 238 | |
| 239 | e. Required Notices. You must duplicate this |
| 240 | License in any documentation you provide along with the Source Code of any |
| 241 | Modifications you create or to which you contribute, and which you |
| 242 | distribute, wherever you describe recipients` rights |
| 243 | relating to Licensed Product. You must duplicate the notice |
| 244 | contained in Exhibit A (the "Notice") in each file of the Source |
| 245 | Code of any copy you distribute of the Licensed Product. If you |
| 246 | created a Modification, you may add your name as a |
| 247 | Contributor to the Notice. If it is not possible to put the Notice |
| 248 | in a particular Source Code file due to its structure, then |
| 249 | you must include such Notice in a location (such as a relevant |
| 250 | directory file) where a user would be likely to look for such a |
| 251 | notice. You may choose to offer, and charge a fee for, warranty, |
| 252 | support, indemnity or liability obligations to one or more |
| 253 | recipients of Licensed Product. However, you may do so only on |
| 254 | your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Licensor or any |
| 255 | Contributor. You must make it clear that any such warranty, |
| 256 | support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by you |
| 257 | alone, and you hereby agree to indemnify the Licensor and every |
| 258 | Contributor for any liability incurred by the Licensor or such |
| 259 | Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or |
| 260 | liability terms you offer. |
| 261 | |
| 262 | f. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may |
| 263 | distribute Licensed Product as an executable program under a license of |
| 264 | your choice that may contain terms different from this License |
| 265 | provided (i) you have satisfied the requirements of Sections |
| 266 | 4(a) through 4(e) for that distribution, (ii) you include a |
| 267 | conspicuous notice in the executable version, related documentation |
| 268 | and collateral materials stating that the Source Code version of |
| 269 | the Licensed Product is available under the terms of this |
| 270 | License, including a description of how and where you have |
| 271 | fulfilled the obligations of Section 4(b), (iii) you retain all |
| 272 | existing copyright notices in the Licensed Product, and (iv) you |
| 273 | make it clear that any terms that differ from this License are |
| 274 | offered by you alone, not by Licensor or any Contributor. You |
| 275 | hereby agree to indemnify the Licensor and every Contributor |
| 276 | for any liability incurred by Licensor or such Contributor as a |
| 277 | result of any terms you offer. |
| 278 | |
| 279 | g. Distribution of Derivative Works. You may |
| 280 | create Derivative Works (e.g., combinations of some or all of the Licensed |
| 281 | Product with other code) and distribute the Derivative Works as |
| 282 | products under any other license you select, with the |
| 283 | proviso that the requirements of this License are fulfilled for |
| 284 | those portions of the Derivative Works that consist of the |
| 285 | Licensed Product or any Modifications thereto. |
| 286 | |
| 287 | 5. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or |
| 288 | Regulation. |
| 289 | |
| 290 | If it is impossible for you to comply with any of |
| 291 | the terms of this License with |
| 292 | respect to some or all of the Licensed Product due to statute, judicial |
| 293 | order, or regulation, then you must (i) comply with the terms of |
| 294 | this License to the maximum extent possible, (ii) cite the statute or |
| 295 | regulation that prohibits you from adhering to the License, and |
| 296 | (iii) describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description |
| 297 | must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 4(d), |
| 298 | and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to |
| 299 | the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such |
| 300 | description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary |
| 301 | skill at computer programming to be able to understand it. |
| 302 | |
| 303 | 6. Application of This License. |
| 304 | |
| 305 | This License |
| 306 | applies to code to which Licensor or Contributor has attached the Notice in |
| 307 | Exhibit A, |
| 308 | which is incorporated herein by this reference. |
| 309 | |
| 310 | 7. Versions of This License. |
| 311 | |
| 312 | a. Version. The Motosoto Open Source License is |
| 313 | derived from the Jabber Open Source License. All changes are related to |
| 314 | applicable law and the location of court. |
| 315 | |
| 316 | b. New Versions. Licensor may publish from time to |
| 317 | time revised and/or new versions of the License. |
| 318 | |
| 319 | c. Effect of New Versions. Once Licensed Product |
| 320 | has been published under a particular version of the License, you may always |
| 321 | continue to use it under the terms of that version. You may also |
| 322 | choose to use such Licensed Product under the terms of any |
| 323 | subsequent version of the License published by Licensor. No one |
| 324 | other than Lic ensor has the right to modify the terms |
| 325 | applicable to Licensed Product created under this License. |
| 326 | |
| 327 | d. Derivative Works of this License. If you |
| 328 | create or use a modified version of this License, which you may do only in |
| 329 | order to |
| 330 | apply it to software that is not already a Licensed Product under |
| 331 | this License, you must rename your license so that it is not |
| 332 | confusingly similar to this License, and must make it clear that |
| 333 | your license contains terms that differ from this License. In |
| 334 | so naming your license, you may not use any trademark of Licensor |
| 335 | or any Contributor. |
| 336 | |
| 337 | 8. Disclaimer of Warranty. |
| 338 | |
| 339 | LICENSED PRODUCT IS |
| 340 | PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT |
| 341 | WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT |
| 342 | LIMITATION, WARRANTIES |
| 343 | THAT THE LICENSED PRODUCT IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A |
| 344 | PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR |
| 345 | NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE |
| 346 | LICENSED PRODUCT IS |
| 347 | WITH YOU. SHOULD LICENSED PRODUCT PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU |
| 348 | (AND NOT THE LICENSOR OR |
| 349 | ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR |
| 350 | OR CORRECTION. THIS |
| 351 | DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO |
| 352 | USE OF LICENSED |
| 353 | PRODUCT IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER. |
| 354 | |
| 355 | 9. Termination. |
| 356 | |
| 357 | a. Automatic Termination Upon Breach. This |
| 358 | license and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically if you |
| 359 | fail to comply with the terms herein and fail to cure such breach |
| 360 | within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of the breach. |
| 361 | All sublicenses to the Licensed Product that are properly granted |
| 362 | shall survive any termination of this license. Provisions |
| 363 | that, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the |
| 364 | termination of this License, shall survive. |
| 365 | |
| 366 | b. Termination Upon Assertion of Patent |
| 367 | Infringement. If you initiate litigation by asserting a patent |
| 368 | infringement claim |
| 369 | (excluding declaratory judgment actions) against Licensor or a |
| 370 | Contributor (Licensor or Contributor against whom you file |
| 371 | such an action is referred to herein as "Respondent") alleging |
| 372 | that Licensed Product directly or indirectly infringes any |
| 373 | patent, then any and all rights granted by such Respondent to you |
| 374 | under Sections 1 or 2 of this License shall terminate |
| 375 | prospectively upon sixty (60) days notice from Respondent (the |
| 376 | "Notice Period") unless within that Notice Period you |
| 377 | either agree in writing (i) to pay Respondent a mutually agreeable |
| 378 | reasonably royalty for your past or future use of Licensed |
| 379 | Product made by such Respondent, or (ii) withdraw your litigation |
| 380 | claim with respect to Licensed Product against such |
| 381 | Respondent. If within said Notice Period a reasonable royalty and |
| 382 | payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in |
| 383 | writing by the parties or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, |
| 384 | the rights granted by Licensor to you under Sections 1 and 2 |
| 385 | automatically terminate at the expiration of said Notice |
| 386 | Period. |
| 387 | |
| 388 | c. Reasonable Value of This License. If you assert a |
| 389 | patent infringement claim against Respondent alleging that Licensed |
| 390 | Product directly or indirectly infringes any patent where such |
| 391 | claim is resolved (such as by license or settlement) prior to |
| 392 | the initiation of patent infringement litigation, then the |
| 393 | reasonable value of the licenses granted by said Respondent under |
| 394 | Sections 1 and 2 shall be taken into account in determining the |
| 395 | amount or value of any payment or license. |
| 396 | |
| 397 | d. No Retroactive Effect of Termination. In the |
| 398 | event of termination under Sections 9(a) or 9(b) above, all end user license |
| 399 | agreements (excluding licenses to distributors and reselle rs) |
| 400 | that have been validly granted by you or any distributor |
| 401 | hereunder prior to termination shall survive |
| 402 | termination. |
| 403 | |
| 404 | 10. Limitation of Liability. |
| 405 | |
| 406 | UNDER NO |
| 407 | CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT |
| 408 | (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE LICENSOR, ANY |
| 409 | CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY |
| 410 | DISTRIBUTOR OF LICENSED PRODUCT, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, |
| 411 | BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON |
| 412 | FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY |
| 413 | CHARACTER INCLUDING, |
| 414 | WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER |
| 415 | FAILURE OR |
| 416 | MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF |
| 417 | SUCH PARTY SHALL |
| 418 | HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF |
| 419 | LIABILITY SHALL NOT |
| 420 | APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH |
| 421 | PARTY |
| 422 | |
