Academic Free License ("AFL") v. 3.0
|
|
|
|
This Academic Free License (the "License") applies to any original work of authorship (the "Original Work") whose owner
|
|
(the "Licensor") has placed the following licensing notice adjacent to the copyright notice for the Original Work:
|
|
|
|
Licensed under the Academic Free License version 3.0
|
|
|
|
1) Grant of Copyright License. Licensor grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable license,
|
|
for the duration of the copyright, to do the following:
|
|
|
|
a) to reproduce the Original Work in copies, either alone or as part of a collective work;
|
|
|
|
b) to translate, adapt, alter, transform, modify, or arrange the Original Work, thereby creating derivative works
|
|
("Derivative Works") based upon the Original Work;
|
|
|
|
c) to distribute or communicate copies of the Original Work and Derivative Works to the public, under any license of
|
|
your choice that does not contradict the terms and conditions, including Licensor's reserved rights and remedies, in
|
|
this Academic Free License;
|
|
|
|
d) to perform the Original Work publicly; and
|
|
|
|
e) to display the Original Work publicly.
|
|
|
|
2) Grant of Patent License. Licensor grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable license, under
|
|
patent claims owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in the Original Work as furnished by the Licensor,
|
|
for the duration of the patents, to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and import the Original Work and
|
|
Derivative Works.
|
|
|
|
3) Grant of Source Code License. The term "Source Code" means the preferred form of the Original Work for making
|
|
modifications to it and all available documentation describing how to modify the Original Work. Licensor agrees to
|
|
provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Original Work along with each copy of the Original Work that
|
|
Licensor distributes. Licensor reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing a machine-readable copy of
|
|
the Source Code in an information repository reasonably calculated to permit inexpensive and convenient access by
|
|
You for as long as Licensor continues to distribute the Original Work.
|
|
|
|
4) Exclusions From License Grant. Neither the names of Licensor, nor the names of any contributors to the Original Work,
|
|
nor any of their trademarks or service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this Original Work
|
|
without express prior permission of the Licensor. Except as expressly stated herein, nothing in this License grants any
|
|
license to Licensor's trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other intellectual property. No patent
|
|
license is granted to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, or import embodiments of any patent claims other than
|
|
the licensed claims defined in Section 2. No license is granted to the trademarks of Licensor even if such marks are
|
|
included in the Original Work. Nothing in this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under
|
|
terms different from this License any Original Work that Licensor otherwise would have a right to license.
|
|
|
|
5) External Deployment. The term "External Deployment" means the use, distribution, or communication of the Original Work
|
|
or Derivative Works in any way such that the Original Work or Derivative Works may be used by anyone other than You,
|
|
whether those works are distributed or communicated to those persons or made available as an application intended for use
|
|
over a network. As an express condition for the grants of license hereunder, You must treat any External Deployment by
|
|
You of the Original Work or a Derivative Work as a distribution under section 1(c).
|
|
|
|
6) Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any Derivative Works that You create, all copyright,
|
|
patent, or trademark notices from the Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices of licensing and any
|
|
descriptive text identified therein as an "Attribution Notice." You must cause the Source Code for any Derivative Works
|
|
that You create to carry a prominent Attribution Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that You have modified
|
|
the Original Work.
|
|
|
|
7) Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that the copyright in and to the Original Work
|
|
and the patent rights granted herein by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are sublicensed to You under the terms of
|
|
this License with the permission of the contributor(s) of those copyrights and patent rights. Except as expressly stated
|
|
in the immediately preceding sentence, the Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS IS" BASIS and WITHOUT
|
|
WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of non-infringement, merchantability
|
|
or fitness for a particular purpose. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL WORK IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER
|
|
OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part of this License. No license to the Original Work is granted by this License
|
|
except under this disclaimer.
|
|
|
|
8) Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether in tort (including negligence),
|
|
contract, or otherwise, shall the Licensor be liable to anyone for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential
|
|
damages of any character arising as a result of this License or the use of the Original Work including, without
|
|
limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial
|
|
damages or losses. This limitation of liability shall not apply to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation.
|
|
|
|
9) Acceptance and Termination. If, at any time, You expressly assented to this License, that assent indicates your clear
|
|
and irrevocable acceptance of this License and all of its terms and conditions. If You distribute or communicate copies
|
|
of the Original Work or a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable effort under the circumstances to obtain the
|
|
express assent of recipients to the terms of this License. This License conditions your rights to undertake the
|
|
activities listed in Section 1, including your right to create Derivative Works based upon the Original Work, and doing
|
|
so without honoring these terms and conditions is prohibited by copyright law and international treaty. Nothing in this
|
|
License is intended to affect copyright exceptions and limitations (including "fair use" or "fair dealing"). This License
|
|
shall terminate immediately and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You by this License upon your
|
|
failure to honor the conditions in Section 1(c).
|
|
|
|
10) Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate automatically and You may no longer exercise any of the
|
|
rights granted to You by this License as of the date You commence an action, including a cross-claim or counterclaim,
|
|
against Licensor or any licensee alleging that the Original Work infringes a patent. This termination provision shall
|
|
not apply for an action alleging patent infringement by combinations of the Original Work with other software or
|
|
hardware.
|
|
|
|
11) Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating to this License may be brought only in the courts
|
|
of a jurisdiction wherein the Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under the laws of
|
|
that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The application of the United Nations Convention on
|
|
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the Original Work outside the scope
|
|
of this License or after its termination shall be subject to the requirements and penalties of copyright or patent
|
|
law in the appropriate jurisdiction. This section shall survive the termination of this License.
|
|
|
|
12) Attorneys' Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License or seeking damages relating thereto, the
|
|
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
|
|
attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, including any appeal of such action. This section
|
|
shall survive the termination of this License.
|
|
|
|
13) Miscellaneous. 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.
|
|
|
|
14) Definition of "You" in This License. "You" throughout this License, whether in upper or lower case, means an
|
|
individual or a legal entity exercising rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this License. For legal
|
|
entities, "You" includes any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with you. For purposes
|
|
of this definition, "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or management of such
|
|
entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares,
|
|
or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
|
|
|
|
15) Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not otherwise restricted or conditioned by this License
|
|
or by law, and Licensor promises not to interfere with or be responsible for such uses by You.
|
|
|
|
16) Modification of This License. This License is Copyright © 2005 Lawrence Rosen. Permission is granted to copy,
|
|
distribute, or communicate this License without modification. Nothing in this License permits You to modify this
|
|
License as applied to the Original Work or to Derivative Works. However, You may modify the text of this License and
|
|
copy, distribute or communicate your modified version (the "Modified License") and apply it to other original works of
|
|
authorship subject to the following conditions: (i) You may not indicate in any way that your Modified License is the
|
|
"Academic Free License" or "AFL" and you may not use those names in the name of your Modified License; (ii) You must
|
|
replace the notice specified in the first paragraph above with the notice "Licensed under " or with a notice of your
|
|
own that is not confusingly similar to the notice in this License; and (iii) You may not claim that your original
|
|
works are open source software unless your Modified License has been approved by Open Source Initiative (OSI) and
|
|
You comply with its license review and certification process. |
