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'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 <insert your license name here>" 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.
