<h2>Eclipse Public License - v 1.0</h2> | |
<p>THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS ECLIPSE | |
PUBLIC LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR | |
DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS | |
AGREEMENT.</p> | |
<p><b>1. DEFINITIONS</b></p> | |
<p>"Contribution" means:</p> | |
<p class="list">a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial | |
code and documentation distributed under this Agreement, and</p> | |
<p class="list">b) in the case of each subsequent Contributor:</p> | |
<p class="list">i) changes to the Program, and</p> | |
<p class="list">ii) additions to the Program;</p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p>"Contributor" means any person or entity that distributes | |
the Program.</p> | |
<p>"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.</p> | |
<p>"Program" means the Contributions distributed in accordance | |
with this Agreement.</p> | |
<p>"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under | |
this Agreement, including all Contributors.</p> | |
<p><b>2. GRANT OF RIGHTS</b></p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p><b>3. REQUIREMENTS</b></p> | |
<p>A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code | |
form under its own license agreement, provided that:</p> | |
<p class="list">a) it complies with the terms and conditions of this | |
Agreement; and</p> | |
<p class="list">b) its license agreement:</p> | |
<p class="list">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;</p> | |
<p class="list">ii) effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors | |
all liability for damages, including direct, indirect, special, | |
incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;</p> | |
<p class="list">iii) states that any provisions which differ from this | |
Agreement are offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other | |
party; and</p> | |
<p class="list">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.</p> | |
<p>When the Program is made available in source code form:</p> | |
<p class="list">a) it must be made available under this Agreement; and</p> | |
<p class="list">b) a copy of this Agreement must be included with each | |
copy of the Program.</p> | |
<p>Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices contained | |
within the Program.</p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p><b>4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION</b></p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p><b>5. NO WARRANTY</b></p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p><b>6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY</b></p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p><b>7. GENERAL</b></p> | |
<p>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.</p> | |
<p>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) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such | |
Recipient's rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the | |
date such litigation is filed.</p> | |
<p>All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it | |
fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this | |
Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of time | |
after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's rights | |
under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use and | |
distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. However, | |
Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses granted by | |
Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and survive.</p> | |
<p>Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute copies of this | |
Agreement, but in order to avoid inconsistency the Agreement is | |
copyrighted and may only be modified in the following manner. The | |
Agreement Steward reserves the right to publish new versions (including | |
revisions) of this Agreement from time to time. No one other than the | |
Agreement Steward has the right to modify this Agreement. The Eclipse | |
Foundation is the initial Agreement Steward. The Eclipse Foundation may | |
assign the responsibility to serve as the Agreement Steward to a | |
suitable separate entity. Each new version of the Agreement will be | |
given a distinguishing version number. The Program (including | |
Contributions) may always be distributed subject to the version of the | |
Agreement under which it was received. In addition, after a new version | |
of the Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to distribute the | |
Program (including its Contributions) under the new version. Except as | |
expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, Recipient receives no | |
rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any Contributor under | |
this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or | |
otherwise. All rights in the Program not expressly granted under this | |
Agreement are reserved.</p> | |
<p>This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and | |
the intellectual property laws of the United States of America. No party | |
to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement more | |
than one year after the cause of action arose. Each party waives its | |
rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation.</p> | |
