Microsoft Permissive License (Ms-PL)
This license governs use of the accompanying software. If you use the
software, you accept this license. If you do not accept the license, do
not use the software.
1. Definitions
The terms "reproduce," "reproduction," "derivative works," and
"distribution" have the same meaning here as under U.S. copyright law.
A "contribution" is the original software, or any additions or changes to
the software.
A "contributor" is any person that distributes its contribution under this
license.
"Licensed patents" are a contributor's patent claims that read directly
on its contribution.
2. Grant of Rights
(A) Copyright Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants
you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to
reproduce its contribution, prepare derivative works of its contribution,
and distribute its contribution or any derivative works that you create.
(B) Patent Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants
you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under its licensed
patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, import, and/or
otherwise dispose of its contribution in the software or derivative works
of the contribution in the software.
3. Conditions and Limitations
(A) No Trademark License- This license does not grant you rights to use
any contributors' name, logo, or trademarks.
(B) If you bring a patent claim against any contributor over patents that
you claim are infringed by the software, your patent license from such
contributor to the software ends automatically.
(C) If you distribute any portion of the software, you must retain all
copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices that are present in
the software.
(D) If you distribute any portion of the software in source code form, you
may do so only under this license by including a complete copy of this
license with your distribution. If you distribute any portion of the
software in compiled or object code form, you may only do so under a
license that complies with this license.
(E) The software is licensed "as-is." You bear the risk of using it. The
contributors give no express warranties, guarantees or conditions. You may
have additional consumer rights under your local laws which this license
cannot change. To the extent permitted under your local laws, the
contributors exclude the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness
for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
(F) If you distribute the software or derivative works with programs you
develop, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless all
contributors from any claims, including attorneys' fees, related to the
distribution or use of your programs. For clarity, you have no such
obligations to a contributor for any claims based solely on the unmodified
contributions of that contributor.
(G) If you make any additions or changes to the original software, you
may only distribute them under a new namespace. In addition, you will
clearly identify your changes or additions as your own.
