1023. DISTRIBUTION OBLIGATIONS
103
1043.1. Application of License.
105The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are governed by
106the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2. The Source
107Code version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms of this
108License or a future version of this License released under Section 6.1, and You
109must include a copy of this License with every copy of the Source Code You
110distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source Code version
111that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License or the
112recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include an additional document
113offering the additional rights described in Section 3.5.
114
1153.2. Availability of Source Code.
116Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be made
117available in Source Code form under the terms of this License via an accepted
118Electronic Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable
119version available and to the Initial Developer; and if made available via
120Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must remain available for at least twelve
121(12) months after the date it initially became available, or at least six (6)
122months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification has been made
123available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that the Source
124Code version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is
125maintained by a third party. You are responsible for notifying the Initial
126Developer of the Modification and the location of the Source if a contact means
127is provided. Red Hat will be acting as maintainer of the Source and may provide
128an Electronic Distribution mechanism for the Modification to be made available.
129You can contact Red Hat to make the Modification available and to notify the
130Initial Developer. (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ecos/)
131
1323.3. Description of Modifications.
133You must cause all Covered Code to which you contribute to contain a file
134documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and the date of
135any change. You must include a prominent statement that the Modification is
136derived, directly or indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial
137Developer and including the name of the Initial Developer in (a) the Source
138Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or related documentation
139in which You describe the origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
140
1413.4. Intellectual Property Matters
142(a) Third Party Claims.
143If You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual property right in
144particular functionality or code (or its utilization under this License), you
145must include a text file with the source code distribution titled
146"LEGAL" which describes the claim and the party making the claim in
147sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If you obtain
148such knowledge after You make Your Modification available as described in
149Section 3.2, You shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make
150available thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
151mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who received
152the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
153
154(b) Contributor APIs.
155If Your Modification is an application programming interface and You own or
156control patents which are reasonably necessary to implement that API, you must
157also include this information in the LEGAL file.
158
1593.5. Required Notices.
160You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source Code, and
161this License in any documentation for the Source Code, where You describe
162recipients' rights relating to Covered Code. If You created one or more
163Modification(s), You may add your name as a Contributor to the Source Code. If
164it is not possible to put such notice in a particular Source Code file due to
165its structure, then you must include such notice in a location (such as a
166relevant directory file) where a user would be likely to look for such a
167notice. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support,
168indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered Code.
169
170However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the
171Initial Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that
172any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You
173alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every
174Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such
175Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You
176offer.
177
1783.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
179You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the requirements of
180Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include a
181notice stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available
182under the terms of this License, including a description of how and where You
183have fulfilled the obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously
184included in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
185collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the Covered
186Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered Code under a license
187of Your choice, which may contain terms different from this License, provided
188that You are in compliance with the terms of this License and that the license
189for the Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's
190rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this License. If
191You distribute the Executable version under a different license You must make
192it absolutely clear that any terms which differ from this License are offered
193by You alone, not by the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree
194to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability
195incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such
196terms You offer.
197
198If you distribute executable versions containing Covered Code, you must
199reproduce the notice in Exhibit B in the documentation and/or other materials
200provided with the product.
201
2023.7. Larger Works.
203You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code not
204governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work as a
205single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements of this
206License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
207
2084. INABILITY TO COMPLY DUE TO STATUTE OR REGULATION
209
210If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License
211with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute or regulation
212then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent
213possible; (b) cite the statute or regulation that prohibits you from adhering
214to the license; and (c) describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such
215description must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and
216must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the
217extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
218sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
219understand it. You must submit this LEGAL file to Red Hat for review, and You
220will not be able use the covered code in any means until permission is granted
221from Red Hat to allow for the inability to comply due to statute or regulation.
222
2235. APPLICATION OF THIS LICENSE
224
225This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
226notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.

229becoming subject to the terms of this License, and may license such additional
230products on different terms from those contained in this License.
231

247the License published by Red Hat. No one other than Red Hat has the right to
248modify the terms applicable to Covered Code beyond what is granted under this

255"ECOS", "eCos", "Red Hat", "RHEPL" or

258differ from the Red Hat eCos Public License. (Filling in the name of the
259Initial Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the notice described in

2637. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY
264
265COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS,
266WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
267LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE,
