Eclipse Public License - v 1.0
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
1. DEFINITIONS
|
||||
|
||||
"Contribution" means:
|
||||
|
||||
a) in the case of the initial Contributor, the initial code and
|
||||
documentation distributed under this Agreement, and
|
||||
|
||||
b) in the case of each subsequent 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 any person or 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.
|
||||
|
||||
"Program" means the Contributions distributed in accordance with
|
||||
this Agreement.
|
||||
|
||||
"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.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributors may not remove or alter any copyright notices
|
||||
contained within the Program.
|
||||
|
||||
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 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.
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
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.
