|
|
|
|
3. Distribution Obligations.
|
|
|
|
3.1. Application of License.
|
|
The Modifications 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, 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 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 You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual property
|
|
right in particular functionality or code (or its utilization
|
|
under this License), you 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 you obtain such knowledge after You
|
|
make Your Modification available as described in Section 3.2, You
|
|
shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make
|
|
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 Your Modification is an application programming interface and
|
|
You own or control patents which are reasonably necessary to
|
|
implement that API, you must also include this information in the
|
|
LEGAL file.
|
|
|
|
3.5. Required Notices.
|
|
You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source
|
|
Code, and this License in any documentation for the Source Code, where
|
|
You describe recipients` rights relating to Covered Code. If You
|
|
created one or more Modification(s), You may add your name as a
|
|
Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. 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 file) where a user would be likely to look for
|
|
such a notice. 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 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
|
|
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.
|
|
|

|
|
shall survive.
|
|
|
|
