|
Covered Code in the absence of Modifications made by that Contributor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Distribution Obligations.
|
|
|
|
3.1. Application of License. The Modifications which You create or to
|
|
which You contribute are governed by the terms of this License,
|
|
including without limitation Section 2.2. The Source Code version of
|
|
Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms of this License
|
|
or a future version of this License released under Section 6.1, and
|
|
You must include a copy of this License with every copy of the Source
|
|
Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any
|
|
Source Code version that alters or restricts the applicable version of
|
|
this License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may
|
|
include an additional document offering the additional rights
|
|
described in Section 3.5.
|
|
|
|
3.2. Availability of Source Code. Any Modification which You create
|
|
or to which You contribute must be made available in Source Code form
|
|
under the terms of this License either on the same media as an
|
|
Executable version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution
|
|
Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version available;
|
|
and if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must
|
|
remain available for at least twelve (12) months after the date it
|
|
initially became available, or at least six (6) months after a
|
|
subsequent version of that particular Modification has been made
|
|
available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that
|
|
the Source Code version remains available even if the Electronic
|
|
Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
|
|
|
|
3.3. Description of Modifications. You must cause all Covered Code to
|
|
which You contribute to contain a file documenting the changes You
|
|
made to create that Covered Code and the date of any change. You must
|
|
include a prominent statement that the Modification is derived,
|
|
directly or indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial
|
|
Developer and including the name of the Initial Developer in (a) the
|
|
Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or related
|
|
documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership of the
|
|
Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
3.4. Intellectual Property Matters (a) Third Party Claims. If
|
|
Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's
|
|
intellectual property rights is required to exercise the rights
|
|
granted by such Contributor under Sections 2.1 or 2.2, Contributor
|
|
must include a text file with the Source Code distribution titled
|
|
"LEGAL" which describes the claim and the party making the claim in
|
|
sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If
|
|
Contributor obtains such knowledge after the Modification is made
|
|
available as described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly
|
|
modify the LEGAL file in all copies Contributor makes available
|
|
thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
|
|
mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who
|
|
received the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
|
|
|
|
(b) Contributor APIs. If Contributor's Modifications include an
|
|
application programming interface and Contributor has knowledge of
|
|
patent licenses which are reasonably necessary to implement that API,
|
|
Contributor must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
|
|
|
|
(c) Representations. Contributor represents that, except as disclosed
|
|
pursuant to Section 3.4(a) above, Contributor believes that
|
|
Contributor's Modifications are Contributor's original creation(s)
|
|
and/or Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed
|
|
by this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.5. Required Notices. You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in
|
|
each file of the Source Code. If it is not possible to put such
|
|
notice in a particular Source Code file due to its structure, then You
|
|
must include such notice in a location (such as a relevant directory)
|
|
where a user would be likely to look for such a notice. If You
|
|
created one or more Modification(s) You may add your name as a
|
|
Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You must also
|
|
duplicate this License in any documentation for the Source Code where
|
|
You describe recipients' rights or ownership rights relating to
|
|
Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for,
|
|
warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations to one or more
|
|
recipients of Covered Code. However, You may do so only on Your own
|
|
behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any
|
|
Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than any such warranty,
|
|
support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone,
|
|
and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every
|
|
Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or
|
|
such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or
|
|
liability terms You offer.
|
|
|
|
3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute Covered
|
|
Code in Executable form only if the requirements of Section 3.1-3.5
|
|
have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include a notice
|
|
stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available
|
|
under the terms of this License, including a description of how and
|
|
where You have fulfilled the obligations of Section 3.2. The notice
|
|
must be conspicuously included in any notice in an Executable version,
|
|
related documentation or collateral in which You describe recipients'
|
|
rights relating to the Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable
|
|
version of Covered Code or ownership rights under a license of Your
|
|
choice, which may contain terms different from this License, provided
|
|
that You are in compliance with the terms of this License and that the
|
|
license for the Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter
|
|
the recipient's rights in the Source Code version from the rights set
|
|
forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable version under
|
|
a different license You must make it absolutely clear that any terms
|
|
which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the
|
|
Initial Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify
|
|
the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred
|
|
by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such
|
|
terms You offer.
|
|
|
|
3.7. Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered
|
|
Code with other code not governed by the terms of this License and
|
|
distribute the Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You
|
|
must make sure the requirements of this License are fulfilled for the
|
|
Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
|
|
|
|
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
|
|
License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to
|
|
statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with
|
|
the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b)
|
|
describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description
|
|
must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and must
|
|
be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the
|
|
extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be
|
|
sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to
|
|
understand it.
|
|
|
|
5. Application of this License.
|
|
|
|
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has
|
|
attached the notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
6. Versions of the License.
|
|
|
|
6.1. New Versions. Thomas Richter may publish revised and/or new
|
|
versions of the License from time to time. Each version will be given
|
|
a distinguishing version number.
|
|
|
|
6.2. Effect of New Versions. Once Covered Code has been published
|
|
under a particular version of the License, You may always continue to
|
|
use it under the terms of that version. You may also choose to use
|
|
such Covered Code under the terms of any subsequent version of the
|
|
License published by Thomas Richter. No one other than Thomas Richter
|
|
has the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code created
|
|
under this License.
|
|
|
|
6.3. Derivative Works. If You create or use a modified version of
|
|
this License (which you may only do in order to apply it to code which
|
|
is not already Covered Code governed by this License), You must (a)
|
|
rename Your license so that the phrases "TPL", "THOR Software",
|
|
"Thomas Richter" or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in
|
|
your license (except to note that your license differs from this
|
|
License) and (b) otherwise make it clear that Your version of the
|
|
license contains terms which differ from the THOR Public
|
|
License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, Original Code
|
|
or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A shall not of
|
|
themselves be deemed to be modifications of this License.)
|
|
|
|
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
|
|
|
|
COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS,
|
|
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
|
|
WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF
|
|
DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
|
|
NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF
|
|
THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE
|
|
IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER
|
|
CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
|
|
CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART
|
|
OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER
|
|
EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
|
|
|
|
8. TERMINATION.
|
|
|
|
8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
|
|
automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure
|
|
such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
|
|
sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall
|
|
survive any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their
|
|
nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this License
|
|
shall survive.
|
|
|
|
8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
|
|
claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer
|
|
or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom
|
|
You file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
|
|
|
|
(a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly
|
|
infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
|
|
Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License
|
|
shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively,
|
|
unless if within 60 days after receipt of notice You either: (i) agree
|
|
in writing to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable royalty
|
|
for Your past and future use of Modifications made by such
|
|
Participant, or (ii) withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to
|
|
the Contributor Version against such Participant. If within 60 days
|
|
of notice, a reasonable royalty and payment arrangement are not
|
|
mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation claim
|
|
is not withdrawn, the rights granted by Participant to You under
|
|
Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at the expiration of
|
|
the 60 day notice period specified above.
|
|
|
|
(b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such Participant's
|
|
Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then
|
|
any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections 2.1(b)
|
|
and 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first made, used,
|
|
sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that
|
|
Participant.
|
|
|
|
8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant
|
|
alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
|
|
indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
|
|
by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent
|
|
infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
|
|
granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken
|
|
into account in determining the amount or value of any payment or
|
|
license.
|
|
|
|
8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, all
|
|
end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers)
|
|
which have been validly granted by You or any distributor hereunder
|
|
prior to termination shall survive termination.
|
|
|
|
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
|
|
|
|
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT
|
|
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL
|
|
DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE,
|
|
OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR
|
|
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY
|
|
CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL,
|
|
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER
|
|
COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN
|
|
INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
|
|
LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
|
|
RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW
|
|
PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE
|
|
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO
|
|
THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
|
|
|
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
|
|
|
|
The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined in 48
|
|
C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer software"
|
|
and "commercial computer software documentation," as such terms are
|
|
used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48
|
|
C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995),
|
|
all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code with only those
|
|
rights set forth herein.
|
|
|
|
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
|
|
|
|
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject
|
|
matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
|
|
unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
|
|
necessary to make it enforceable. This License shall be governed by
|
|
German law provisions (except to the extent applicable law, if any,
|
|
provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. With
|
|
respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen of, or an
|
|
entity chartered or registered to do business in Federal Republic of
|
|
Germany, any litigation relating to this License shall be subject to
|
|
the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Federal Republic of
|
|
Germany, with the losing party responsible for costs, including
|
|
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
|
|
expenses. Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a
|
|
contract shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to
|
|
this License.
|
|
|
|
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
|
|
|
|
As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is
|
|
responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or indirectly,
|
|
out of its utilization of rights under this License and You agree to
|
|
work with Initial Developer and Contributors to distribute such
|
|
responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing herein is intended or
|
|
shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.
|
|
|
|
13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
|
|
|
|
Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
|
|
Multiple-Licensed. Multiple-Licensed means that the Initial Developer
|
|
permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code under Your choice
|
|
of the TPL or the alternative licenses, if any, specified by the
|
|
Initial Developer in the file described in Exhibit A.
|
|
|
|
|
|
