| The Artistic License 2.0 |
| |
| Copyright (c) 2000-2006, The Perl Foundation. |
| |
| Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies |
| of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| |
| Preamble |
| |
| This license establishes the terms under which a given free software |
| Package may be copied, modified, distributed, and/or redistributed. |
| The intent is that the Copyright Holder maintains some artistic |
| control over the development of that Package while still keeping the |
| Package available as open source and free software. |
| |
| You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly outside of this |
| license directly with the Copyright Holder of a given Package. If the |
| terms of this license do not permit the full use that you propose to |
| make of the Package, you should contact the Copyright Holder and seek |
| a different licensing arrangement. |
| |
| Definitions |
| |
| "Copyright Holder" means the individual(s) or organization(s) |
| named in the copyright notice for the entire Package. |
| |
| "Contributor" means any party that has contributed code or other |
| material to the Package, in accordance with the Copyright Holder's |
| procedures. |
| |
| "You" and "your" means any person who would like to copy, |
| distribute, or modify the Package. |
| |
| "Package" means the collection of files distributed by the |
| Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection and/or of |
| those files. A given Package may consist of either the Standard |
| Version, or a Modified Version. |
| |
| "Distribute" means providing a copy of the Package or making it |
| accessible to anyone else, or in the case of a company or |
| organization, to others outside of your company or organization. |
| |
| "Distributor Fee" means any fee that you charge for Distributing |
| this Package or providing support for this Package to another |
| party. It does not mean licensing fees. |
| |
| "Standard Version" refers to the Package if it has not been |
| modified, or has been modified only in ways explicitly requested |
| by the Copyright Holder. |
| |
| "Modified Version" means the Package, if it has been changed, and |
| such changes were not explicitly requested by the Copyright |
| Holder. |
| |
| "Original License" means this Artistic License as Distributed with |
| the Standard Version of the Package, in its current version or as |
| it may be modified by The Perl Foundation in the future. |
| |
| "Source" form means the source code, documentation source, and |
| configuration files for the Package. |
| |
| "Compiled" form means the compiled bytecode, object code, binary, |
| or any other form resulting from mechanical transformation or |
| translation of the Source form. |
| |
| |
| Permission for Use and Modification Without Distribution |
| |
| (1) You are permitted to use the Standard Version and create and use |
| Modified Versions for any purpose without restriction, provided that |
| you do not Distribute the Modified Version. |
| |
| |
| Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version |
| |
| (2) You may Distribute verbatim copies of the Source form of the |
| Standard Version of this Package in any medium without restriction, |
| either gratis or for a Distributor Fee, provided that you duplicate |
| all of the original copyright notices and associated disclaimers. At |
| your discretion, such verbatim copies may or may not include a |
| Compiled form of the Package. |
| |
| (3) You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other |
| modifications made available from the Copyright Holder. The resulting |
| Package will still be considered the Standard Version, and as such |
| will be subject to the Original License. |
| |
| |
| Distribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Source |
| |
| (4) You may Distribute your Modified Version as Source (either gratis |
| or for a Distributor Fee, and with or without a Compiled form of the |
| Modified Version) provided that you clearly document how it differs |
| from the Standard Version, including, but not limited to, documenting |
| any non-standard features, executables, or modules, and provided that |
| you do at least ONE of the following: |
| |
| (a) make the Modified Version available to the Copyright Holder |
| of the Standard Version, under the Original License, so that the |
| Copyright Holder may include your modifications in the Standard |
| Version. |
| |
| (b) ensure that installation of your Modified Version does not |
| prevent the user installing or running the Standard Version. In |
| addition, the Modified Version must bear a name that is different |
| from the name of the Standard Version. |
| |
| (c) allow anyone who receives a copy of the Modified Version to |
| make the Source form of the Modified Version available to others |
| under |
| |
| (i) the Original License or |
| |
| (ii) a license that permits the licensee to freely copy, |
| modify and redistribute the Modified Version using the same |
| licensing terms that apply to the copy that the licensee |
| received, and requires that the Source form of the Modified |
| Version, and of any works derived from it, be made freely |
| available in that license fees are prohibited but Distributor |
| Fees are allowed. |
| |
| |
| Distribution of Compiled Forms of the Standard Version |
| or Modified Versions without the Source |
| |
| (5) You may Distribute Compiled forms of the Standard Version without |
| the Source, provided that you include complete instructions on how to |
| get the Source of the Standard Version. Such instructions must be |
| valid at the time of your distribution. If these instructions, at any |
| time while you are carrying out such distribution, become invalid, you |
| must provide new instructions on demand or cease further distribution. |
| If you provide valid instructions or cease distribution within thirty |
| days after you become aware that the instructions are invalid, then |
| you do not forfeit any of your rights under this license. |
| |
| (6) You may Distribute a Modified Version in Compiled form without |
| the Source, provided that you comply with Section 4 with respect to |
| the Source of the Modified Version. |
| |
| |
| Aggregating or Linking the Package |
| |
| (7) You may aggregate the Package (either the Standard Version or |
| Modified Version) with other packages and Distribute the resulting |
| aggregation provided that you do not charge a licensing fee for the |
| Package. Distributor Fees are permitted, and licensing fees for other |
| components in the aggregation are permitted. The terms of this license |
| apply to the use and Distribution of the Standard or Modified Versions |
| as included in the aggregation. |
| |
| (8) You are permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions with |
| other works, to embed the Package in a larger work of your own, or to |
| build stand-alone binary or bytecode versions of applications that |
| include the Package, and Distribute the result without restriction, |
| provided the result does not expose a direct interface to the Package. |
| |
| |
| Items That are Not Considered Part of a Modified Version |
| |
| (9) Works (including, but not limited to, modules and scripts) that |
| merely extend or make use of the Package, do not, by themselves, cause |
| the Package to be a Modified Version. In addition, such works are not |
| considered parts of the Package itself, and are not subject to the |
| terms of this license. |
| |
| |
| General Provisions |
| |
| (10) Any use, modification, and distribution of the Standard or |
| Modified Versions is governed by this Artistic License. By using, |
| modifying or distributing the Package, you accept this license. Do not |
| use, modify, or distribute the Package, if you do not accept this |
| license. |
| |
| (11) If your Modified Version has been derived from a Modified |
| Version made by someone other than you, you are nevertheless required |
| to ensure that your Modified Version complies with the requirements of |
| this license. |
| |
| (12) This license does not grant you the right to use any trademark, |
| service mark, tradename, or logo of the Copyright Holder. |
| |
| (13) This license includes the non-exclusive, worldwide, |
| free-of-charge patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, |
| sell, import and otherwise transfer the Package with respect to any |
| patent claims licensable by the Copyright Holder that are necessarily |
| infringed by the Package. If you institute patent litigation |
| (including a cross-claim or counterclaim) against any party alleging |
| that the Package constitutes direct or contributory patent |
| infringement, then this Artistic License to you shall terminate on the |
| date that such litigation is filed. |
