144 absence of Modifications made by that Contributor.
147 3. Distribution Obligations.
149 3.1. Application of License.
151 The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are governed
152 by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2.
153 The Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the
154 terms of this License or a future version of this License released under
155 Section 6.1, and You must include a copy of this License with every
156 copy of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any
157 terms on any Source Code version that alters or restricts the applicable
158 version of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You
159 may include an additional document offering the additional rights described
160 in Section 3.5.
162 3.2. Availability of Source Code.
164 Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be
165 made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License either
166 on the same media as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic
167 Distribution Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version
168 available; and if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism,
169 must remain available for at least twelve (12) months after the date it
170 initially became available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent
171 version of that particular Modification has been made available to such
172 recipients. You are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code version
173 remains available even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained
174 by a third party.
176 3.3. Description of Modifications.
178 You must cause all Covered Code to which You contribute to contain
179 a file documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and
180 the date of any change. You must include a prominent statement that the
181 Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original Code provided
182 by the Initial Developer and including the name of the Initial Developer
183 in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version
184 or related documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership
185 of the Covered Code.
187 3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
188 (a) Third Party Claims.
190 If Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third party's
191 intellectual
192 property rights is required to exercise the rights granted by such Contributor
193 under Sections 2.1 or 2.2, Contributor must include a text file with the
194 Source Code distribution titled "LEGAL'' which describes the claim and
195 the party making the claim in sufficient detail that a recipient will know
196 whom to contact. If Contributor obtains such knowledge after the Modification
197 is made available as described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly
198 modify the LEGAL file in all copies Contributor makes available thereafter
199 and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists
200 or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who received the Covered
201 Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
203 (b) Contributor APIs.
205 If Contributor's Modifications include an application programming interface
206 and Contributor has knowledge of patent licenses which are reasonably necessary
207 to implement that API, Contributor must also include this information in
208 the LEGAL file.
212 (c)
213 Representations.
214 Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to Section
215 3.4(a) above, Contributor believes that Contributor's Modifications are
216 Contributor's original creation(s) and/or Contributor has sufficient rights
217 to grant the rights conveyed by this License.
220 3.5. Required Notices.
222 You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the
223 Source Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular
224 Source Code file due to its structure, then You must include such notice
225 in a location (such as a relevant directory) where a user would be likely
226 to look for such a notice. If You created one or more Modification(s)
227 You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit
228 A. You must also duplicate this License in any documentation
229 for the Source Code where You describe recipients' rights or ownership
230 rights relating to Covered Code. You may choose to offer, and to
231 charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations
232 to one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You may do so only
233 on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any
234 Contributor.
236 You must make it absolutely clear than any such warranty, support, indemnity
237 or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to
238 indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability
239 incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty,
240 support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.
242 3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
244 You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the requirements
245 of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and if You
246 include a notice stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code
247 is available under the terms of this License, including a description of
248 how and where You have fulfilled the obligations of Section 3.2.
249 The notice must be conspicuously included in any notice in an Executable
250 version, related documentation or collateral in which You describe recipients'
251 rights relating to the Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable
252 version of Covered Code or ownership rights under a license of Your choice,
253 which may contain terms different from this License, provided that You
254 are in compliance with the terms of this License and that the license for
255 the Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's
256 rights in the Source Code version from the rights set forth in this License.
257 If You distribute the Executable version under a different license You
258 must make it absolutely clear that any terms which differ from this License
259 are offered by You alone, not by the Initial Developer or any Contributor.
260 You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor
261 for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor
262 as a result of any such terms You offer.
264 3.7. Larger Works.
266 You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code
267 not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work
268 as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements
269 of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
271 4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
273 If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this
274 License with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute,
275 judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with the terms
276 of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b) describe the limitations
278 and the code they affect. Such description must be included in the LEGAL
279 file described in Section 3.4 and must be included with all distributions
281 of the Source Code. Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation,
282 such description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary
283 skill to be able to understand it.
285 5. Application of this License.
287 This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached
288 the notice in Exhibit A and to related Covered Code.
290 6. Versions of the License.
292 6.1. New Versions.
294 Netscape Communications Corporation (''Netscape'') may publish revised
295 and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version will
296 be given a distinguishing version number.
298 6.2. Effect of New Versions.
300 Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of
301 the License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that
302 version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms of
303 any subsequent version of the License published by Netscape. No one other
304 than Netscape has the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code
305 created under this License.
307 6.3. Derivative Works.
309 If You create or use a modified version of this License (which you
310 may only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code
311 governed by this License), You must (a) rename Your license so that the
312 phrases ''Mozilla'', ''MOZILLAPL'', ''MOZPL'', ''Netscape'', "MPL", ''NPL''
313 or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in your license (except
314 to note that your license differs from this License) and (b) otherwise
315 make it clear that Your version of the license contains terms which differ
316 from the Mozilla Public License and Netscape Public License. (Filling in
317 the name of the Initial Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the
318 notice described in Exhibit A shall not of themselves be deemed
319 to be modifications of this License.)
321 7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
323 COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS'' BASIS, WITHOUT
324 WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
325 LIMITATION,
326 WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT
327 FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY
328 AND PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE
329 PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER
330 CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
331 THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE.
332 NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS
333 DISCLAIMER.
335 8. TERMINATION.
337 8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will
338 terminate automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail
339 to cure such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All
340 sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly granted shall survive
341 any termination of this License. Provisions which, by their nature, must
342 remain in effect beyond the termination of this License shall survive.
344 8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent
345 infringement
346 claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial Developer
347 or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor against whom You
348 file such action is referred to as "Participant") alleging that:
350 (a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or
351 indirectly infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such
352 Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this License shall,
353 upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate prospectively, unless if
354 within 60 days after receipt of notice You either: (i) agree in writing
355 to pay Participant a mutually agreeable reasonable royalty for Your past
356 and future use of Modifications made by such Participant, or (ii) withdraw
357 Your litigation claim with respect to the Contributor Version against such
358 Participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable royalty and
359 payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties
360 or the litigation claim is not withdrawn, the rights granted by Participant
361 to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automatically terminate at the expiration
362 of the 60 day notice period specified above.
364 (b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such
365 Participant's Contributor Version, directly or indirectly infringes any
366 patent, then any rights granted to You by such Participant under Sections
367 2.1(b) and 2.2(b) are revoked effective as of the date You first made,
368 used, sold, distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that Participant.
370 8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against
371 Participant alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly
372 or indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as
373 by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of patent infringement
374 litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses granted by such
375 Participant
376 under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken into account in determining the
377 amount or value of any payment or license.
379 8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or
380 8.2 above, all end user license agreements (excluding distributors
381 and resellers) which have been validly granted by You or any distributor
382 hereunder prior to termination shall survive termination.
384 9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
386 UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING
387 NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL DEVELOPER,
388 ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER
389 OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
390 INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT
391 LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE
392 OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN
393 IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
394 THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR
395 PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE
396 LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
397 OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION
398 AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
400 10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
402 The Covered Code is a ''commercial item,'' as that term is defined
403 in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of ''commercial computer software''
404 and ''commercial computer software documentation,'' as such terms are used
405 in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and
406 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government
407 End Users acquire Covered Code with only those rights set forth herein.
409 11. MISCELLANEOUS.
411 This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject matter
412 hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such
413 provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
415 This License shall be governed by California law provisions (except to
416 the extent applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding its
417 conflict-of-law
418 provisions. With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen
419 of, or an entity chartered or registered to do business in the United States
420 of America, any litigation relating to this License shall be subject to
421 the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern District of California,
422 with venue lying in Santa Clara County, California, with the losing party
423 responsible for costs, including without limitation, court costs and reasonable
424 attorneys' fees and expenses. The application of the United Nations Convention
425 on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
426 Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall
427 be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
429 12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
431 As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is responsible
433 for claims and damages arising, directly or indirectly, out of its utilization
434 of rights under this License and You agree to work with Initial Developer
435 and Contributors to distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis.
436 Nothing herein is intended or shall be deemed to constitute any admission
437 of liability.
439 13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
441 Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as
442 Multiple-Licensed.
443 Multiple-Licensed means that the Initial Developer permits you to utilize
444 portions of the Covered Code under Your choice of the MPL or the alternative
445 licenses, if any, specified by the Initial Developer in the file described
446 in Exhibit A.
