|
(b) under patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by Initial

|
is reasonably necessary to enable You to Utilize the Original Code (or
|
|
portions thereof) and not to any greater extent that may be necessary to
|
|
Utilize further Modifications or combinations.
|
|
|
|
2.2. Contributor Grant.

greater extent that may be necessary to Utilize further Modifications or
|
|
combinations.
|
|
|
|
3. Distribution Obligations.
|
|
|
|
3.1. Application of License.
|
|
The Modifications which You create or to which You contribute are governed
|
|
by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2. The
|
|
Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms
|
|
of this License or a future version of this License released under Section 6.1,
|
|
and You must include a copy of this License with every copy of the Source
|
|
Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on any Source
|
|
Code version that alters or restricts the applicable version of this License or the
|
|
recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include an additional document
|
|
offering the additional rights described in Section 3.5.
|
|
|
|
3.2. Availability of Source Code.
|
|
Any Modification which You create or to which You contribute must be made
|
|
available in Source Code form under the terms of this License either on the
|
|
same media as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution
|
|
Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version available; and
|
|
if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must remain available
|
|
for at least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became available, or at
|
|
least six (6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
|
|
has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring
|
|
that the Source Code version remains available even if the Electronic
|
|
Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
|
|
|
|
3.3. Description of Modifications.
|
|
You must cause all Covered Code to which you contribute to contain a file
|
|
documenting the changes You made to create that Covered Code and the date of
|
|
any change. You must include a prominent statement that the Modification is
|
|
derived, directly or indirectly, from Original Code provided by the Initial
|
|
Developer and including the name of the Initial Developer in (a) the Source
|
|
Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version or related documentation in
|
|
which You describe the origin or ownership of the Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
|
|
|
|
(a) Third Party Claims.
|
|
If You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual property right
|
|
in particular functionality or code (or its utilization under this License),
|
|
you must include a text file with the source code distribution titled
|
|
``LEGAL'' which describes the claim and the party making the claim in
|
|
sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If you
|
|
obtain such knowledge after You make Your Modification available as
|
|
described in Section 3.2, You shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in
|
|
all copies You make available thereafter and shall take other steps (such
|
|
as notifying appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably
|
|
calculated to inform those who received the Covered Code that new
|
|
knowledge has been obtained.
|
|
|
|
(b) Contributor APIs.
|
|
If Your Modification is an application programming interface and You
|
|
own or control patents which are reasonably necessary to implement
|
|
that API, you must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
|
|
|
|
3.5. Required Notices.
|
|
You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source Code, and
|
|
this License in any documentation for the Source Code, where You describe
|
|
recipients' rights relating to Covered Code. If You created one or more
|
|
Modification(s), You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice
|
|
described in Exhibit A. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular
|
|
Source Code file due to its structure, then you must include such notice in a
|
|
location (such as a relevant directory file) where a user would be likely to look
|
|
for such a notice. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty,
|
|
support, indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered
|
|
Code. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of
|
|
the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear than
|
|
any such warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You
|
|
alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every
|
|
Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such
|
|
Contributor as a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You
|
|
offer.
|
|
|
|
3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions.
|
|
You may distribute Covered Code in Executable form only if the requirements
|
|
of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met for that Covered Code, and if You include a
|
|
notice stating that the Source Code version of the Covered Code is available
|
|
under the terms of this License, including a description of how and where You
|
|
have fulfilled the obligations of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously
|
|
included in any notice in an Executable version, related documentation or
|
|
collateral in which You describe recipients' rights relating to the Covered Code.
|
|
You may distribute the Executable version of Covered Code under a license of
|
|
Your choice, which may contain terms different from this License, provided that
|
|
You are in compliance with the terms of this License and that the license for the
|
|
Executable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's rights in the
|
|
Source Code version from the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute
|
|
the Executable version under a different license You must make it absolutely
|
|
clear that any terms which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not
|
|
by the Initial Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the
|
|
Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial
|
|
Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer.
|
|
|
|
3.7. Larger Works.
|
|
You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code with other code
|
|
not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the Larger Work as a
|
|
single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements of this
|
|
License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.
|
|
|
|
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License with
|
|
respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute or regulation then You
|
|
must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent
|
|
possible; and (b) describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such
|
|
description must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and
|
|
must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to the extent
|
|
prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be sufficiently
|
|
detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it.
|
|
|
|
5. Application of this License.
|
|
|
|
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
|
|
notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
6. Versions of the License.
|
|
|
|
6.1. New Versions.
|
|
Netscape Communications Corporation (``Netscape'') may publish revised
|
|
and/or new versions of the License from time to time. Each version will be given
|
|
a distinguishing version number.
|
|
|
|
6.2. Effect of New Versions.
|
|
Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version of the
|
|
License, You may always continue to use it under the terms of that version. You
|
|
may also choose to use such Covered Code under the terms of any subsequent
|
|
version of the License published by Netscape. No one other than Netscape has
|
|
the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered Code created under this
|
|
License.
|
|
|
|
6.3. Derivative Works.
|
|
If you create or use a modified version of this License (which you may only do
|
|
in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered Code governed by this
|
|
License), you must (a) rename Your license so that the phrases ``Mozilla'',
|
|
``MOZILLAPL'', ``MOZPL'', ``Netscape'', ``NPL'' or any confusingly similar
|
|
phrase do not appear anywhere in your license and (b) otherwise make it clear
|
|
that your version of the license contains terms which differ from the Mozilla
|
|
Public License and Netscape Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial
|
|
Developer, Original Code or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A
|
|
shall not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of this License.)
|
|
|
|
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY.
|
|
|
|
COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN ``AS
|
|
IS'' BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER
|
|
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
|
WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS,
|
|
MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
|
|
NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
|
|
PERFORMANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD
|
|
ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU
|
|
(NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR)
|
|
ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
|
|
CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES
|
|
AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED
|
|
CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS
|
|
DISCLAIMER.
|
|
|
|
8. TERMINATION.
|
|
|
|
This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically if
|
|
You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within 30 days
|
|
of becoming aware of the breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code which
|
|
are properly granted shall survive any termination of this License. Provisions
|
|
which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this
|
|
License shall survive.
|
|
|
|
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
|
|
|
|
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY,
|
|
WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR
|
|
OTHERWISE, SHALL THE INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER
|
|
CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR
|
|
ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR
|
|
ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
|
|
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING,
|
|
WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL,
|
|
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR
|
|
ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN
|
|
IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE
|
|
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
|
|
SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL
|
|
INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE
|
|
EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME
|
|
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION
|
|
OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THAT
|
|
EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
|
|
|
|
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
|
|
|
|
The Covered Code is a ``commercial item,'' as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R.
|
|
2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of ``commercial computer software'' and
|
|
``commercial computer software documentation,'' as such terms are used in 48
|
|
C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R.
|
|
227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users
|
|
acquire Covered Code with only those rights set forth herein.
|
|
|
|
11. MISCELLANEOUS.
|
|
|
|
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject matter
|
|
hereof. 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.
|
|
This License shall be governed by California law provisions (except to the
|
|
extent applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law
|
|
provisions. With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen of, or
|
|
an entity chartered or registered to do business in, the United States of America:
|
|
(a) unless otherwise agreed in writing, all disputes relating to this License
|
|
(excepting any dispute relating to intellectual property rights) shall be subject to
|
|
final and binding arbitration, with the losing party paying all costs of arbitration;
|
|
(b) any arbitration relating to this Agreement shall be held in Santa Clara
|
|
County, California, under the auspices of JAMS/EndDispute; and (c) any
|
|
litigation relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the
|
|
Federal Courts of the Northern District of California, with venue lying in Santa
|
|
Clara County, California, with the losing party responsible for costs, including
|
|
without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses. The
|
|
application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
|
|
Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or regulation which provides that
|
|
the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply
|
|
to this License.
|
|
|
|
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
|
|
|
|
Except in cases where another Contributor has failed to comply with Section
|
|
3.4, You are responsible for damages arising, directly or indirectly, out of Your
|
|
utilization of rights under this License, based on the number of copies of
|
|
Covered Code you made available, the revenues you received from utilizing
|
|
such rights, and other relevant factors. You agree to work with affected parties
|
|
to distribute responsibility on an equitable basis.
