GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
Version 2, June 1991
|
||||
|
||||
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
|
||||
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
|
||||
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
||||
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
Preamble
|
||||
|
||||
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
|
||||
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
|
||||
License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
|
||||
software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
|
||||
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
|
||||
using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
|
||||
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
|
||||
your programs, too.
|
||||
|
||||
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
|
||||
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
|
||||
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
|
||||
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
|
||||
if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
|
||||
in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
|
||||
|
||||
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
|
||||
anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
|
||||
These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
|
||||
distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
|
||||
gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
|
||||
you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
|
||||
source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
|
||||
rights.
|
||||
|
||||
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
|
||||
(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
|
||||
distribute and/or modify the software.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
|
||||
that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
|
||||
software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
|
||||
want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
|
||||
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
|
||||
authors' reputations.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
|
||||
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
|
||||
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
|
||||
program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
|
||||
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
|
||||
|
||||
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
|
||||
modification follow.
|
||||
|
||||
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
||||
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
|
||||
|
||||
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
|
||||
a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
|
||||
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
|
||||
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
|
||||
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
|
||||
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
|
||||
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
|
||||
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
|
||||
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
|
||||
|
||||
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
|
||||
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
|
||||
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
|
||||
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
|
||||
Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
|
||||
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
|
||||
|
||||
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
|
||||
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
|
||||
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
|
||||
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
|
||||
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
|
||||
and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
|
||||
along with the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
|
||||
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
|
||||
|
||||
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
|
||||
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
|
||||
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
|
||||
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
|
||||
|
||||
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
|
||||
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
|
||||
|
||||
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
|
||||
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
|
||||
part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
|
||||
parties under the terms of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
|
||||
when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
|
||||
interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
|
||||
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
|
||||
notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
|
||||
a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
|
||||
these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
|
||||
License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
|
||||
does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
|
||||
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
|
||||
|
||||
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
|
||||
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
|
||||
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
|
||||
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
|
||||
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
|
||||
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
|
||||
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
|
||||
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
|
||||
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
|
||||
|
||||
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
|
||||
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
|
||||
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
|
||||
collective works based on the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
|
||||
with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
|
||||
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
|
||||
the scope of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
|
||||
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
|
||||
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
|
||||
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
|
||||
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
|
||||
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
|
||||
cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
|
||||
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
|
||||
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
|
||||
customarily used for software interchange; or,
|
||||
|
||||
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
|
||||
to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
|
||||
allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
|
||||
received the program in object code or executable form with such
|
||||
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
|
||||
|
||||
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
|
||||
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
|
||||
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
|
||||
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
|
||||
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
|
||||
special exception, the source code distributed need not include
|
||||
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
|
||||
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
|
||||
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
|
||||
itself accompanies the executable.
|
||||
|
||||
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
|
||||
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
|
||||
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
|
||||
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
|
||||
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
|
||||
|
||||
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
|
||||
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
|
||||
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
|
||||
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
|
||||
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
|
||||
this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
||||
parties remain in full compliance.
|
||||
|
||||
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
|
||||
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
|
||||
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
|
||||
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
|
||||
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
|
||||
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
|
||||
the Program or works based on it.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
|
||||
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
|
||||
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
|
||||
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
|
||||
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
|
||||
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
|
||||
this License.
|
||||
|
||||
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
|
||||
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
|
||||
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
|
||||
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
|
||||
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
|
||||
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
|
||||
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
|
||||
may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
|
||||
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
|
||||
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
|
||||
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
|
||||
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
|
||||
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
|
||||
apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
|
||||
circumstances.
|
||||
|
||||
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
|
||||
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
|
||||
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
|
||||
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
|
||||
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
|
||||
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
|
||||
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
|
||||
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
|
||||
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
|
||||
impose that choice.
|
||||
|
||||
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
|
||||
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
|
||||
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
|
||||
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
|
||||
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
|
||||
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
|
||||
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
|
||||
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
|
||||
|
||||
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
||||
of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
|
||||
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
|
||||
address new problems or concerns.
|
||||
|
||||
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
|
||||
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
|
||||
later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
|
||||
either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
|
||||
Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
|
||||
this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
|
||||
Foundation.
|
||||
|
||||
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
|
||||
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
|
||||
to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
|
||||
Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
|
||||
make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
|
||||
of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
|
||||
of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
|
||||
|
||||
NO WARRANTY
|
||||
|
||||
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
|
||||
FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
|
||||
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
|
||||
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
|
||||
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
|
||||
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
|
||||
TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
|
||||
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
|
||||
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
|
||||
|
||||
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
|
||||
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
|
||||
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
|
||||
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
|
||||
OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
|
||||
TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
|
||||
YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
|
||||
PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
|
||||
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IBM Public License Version 1.0
|
||||
|
||||
THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS IBM
|
||||
PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF
|
||||
THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. DEFINITIONS
|
||||
|
||||
"Contribution" means:
|
||||
|
||||
a) in the case of International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM"),
|
||||
the Original Program, and
|
||||
|
||||
b) in the case of each Contributor,
|
||||
|
||||
i) changes to the Program, and
|
||||
|
||||
ii) additions to the Program;
|
||||
where such changes and/or additions to the Program originate from and
|
||||
are distributed by that particular Contributor. A Contribution
|
||||
'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the Program by such
|
||||
Contributor itself or anyone acting on such Contributor's
|
||||
behalf. Contributions do not include additions to the Program which:
|
||||
(i) are separate modules of software distributed in conjunction with
|
||||
the Program under their own license agreement, and (ii) are not
|
||||
derivative works of the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
"Contributor" means IBM and any other entity that distributes the
|
||||
Program.
|
||||
|
||||
"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by a Contributor
|
||||
which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its Contribution
|
||||
alone or when combined with the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
"Original Program" means the original version of the software
|
||||
accompanying this Agreement as released by IBM, including source code,
|
||||
object code and documentation, if any.
|
||||
|
||||
"Program" means the Original Program and Contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this
|
||||
Agreement, including all Contributors.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
|
||||
|
||||
a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
|
||||
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright
|
||||
license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display,
|
||||
publicly perform, distribute and sublicense the Contribution of such
|
||||
Contributor, if any, and such derivative works, in source code and
|
||||
object code form.
|
||||
|
||||
b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
|
||||
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent
|
||||
license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell,
|
||||
import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if
|
||||
any, in source code and object code form. This patent license shall
|
||||
apply to the combination of the Contribution and the Program if, at
|
||||
the time the Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition
|
||||
of the Contribution causes such combination to be covered by the
|
||||
Licensed Patents. The patent license shall not apply to any other
|
||||
combinations which include the Contribution. No hardware per se is
|
||||
licensed hereunder.
|
||||
|
||||
c) Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the
|
||||
licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are
|
||||
provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the
|
||||
patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each
|
||||
Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by
|
||||
any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights
|
||||
or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses
|
||||
granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility
|
||||
to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For
|
||||
example, if a third party patent license is required to allow
|
||||
Recipient to distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility
|
||||
to acquire that license before distributing the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
d) Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient
|
||||
copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright
|
||||
license set forth in this Agreement.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. REQUIREMENTS
|
||||
|
||||
A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form
|
||||
under its own license agreement, provided that:
|
||||
|
||||
a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
|
||||
|
||||
b) its license agreement:
|
||||
|
||||
i) effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all warranties
|
||||
and conditions, express and implied, including warranties or
|
||||
conditions of title and non-infringement, and implied warranties or
|
||||
conditions of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose;
|
||||
|
||||
ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all liability
|
||||
for damages, including direct, indirect, special, incidental and
|
||||
consequential damages, such as lost profits;
|
||||
|
||||
iii) states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement are
|
||||
offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other party; and
|
||||
|
||||
iv) states that source code for the Program is available from such
|
||||
Contributor, and informs licensees how to obtain it in a reasonable
|
||||
manner on or through a medium customarily used for software exchange.
|
||||
|
||||
When the Program is made available in source code form:
|
||||
a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and
|
||||
b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the
|
||||
Program.
|
||||
|
||||
Each Contributor must include the following in a conspicuous location
|
||||
in the Program:
|
||||
|
||||
Copyright 2003, International Business Machines Corporation and
|
||||
others. All Rights Reserved.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, each Contributor must identify itself as the originator
|
||||
of its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows
|
||||
subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
|
||||
|
||||
Commercial distributors of software may accept certain
|
||||
responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the
|
||||
like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use
|
||||
of the Program, the Contributor who includes the Program in a
|
||||
commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does not
|
||||
create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a
|
||||
Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering,
|
||||
such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend
|
||||
and indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor")
|
||||
against any losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising
|
||||
from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party
|
||||
against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts
|
||||
or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in connection with its
|
||||
distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The
|
||||
obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses
|
||||
relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property
|
||||
infringement. In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a)
|
||||
promptly notify the Commercial Contributor in writing of such claim,
|
||||
and b) allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with
|
||||
the Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement
|
||||
negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such
|
||||
claim at its own expense.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial
|
||||
product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial
|
||||
Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance
|
||||
claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance
|
||||
claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility
|
||||
alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to
|
||||
defend claims against the other Contributors related to those
|
||||
performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires any other
|
||||
Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor
|
||||
must pay those damages.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
5. NO WARRANTY
|
||||
|
||||
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS
|
||||
PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
|
||||
KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
|
||||
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY
|
||||
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely
|
||||
responsible for determining the appropriateness of using and
|
||||
distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with its
|
||||
exercise of rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to
|
||||
the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with applicable
|
||||
laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, and
|
||||
unavailability or interruption of operations.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
|
||||
|
||||
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR
|
||||
ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT,
|
||||
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING
|
||||
WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF
|
||||
LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING
|
||||
NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR
|
||||
DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED
|
||||
HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
7. GENERAL
|
||||
|
||||
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under
|
||||
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
|
||||
the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further
|
||||
action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the
|
||||
minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and
|
||||
enforceable.
|
||||
|
||||
If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with
|
||||
respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or
|
||||
counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that
|
||||
Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as
|
||||
of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, If Recipient
|
||||
institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
||||
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program
|
||||
itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or
|
||||
hardware
