Licensor hereby grants to any person obtaining a -copy of the Original Work ("You") a world-wide, royalty-free, -non-exclusive, perpetual, non-sublicenseable license (1) to use, copy, -modify, merge, publish, perform, distribute and/or sell copies of the -Original Work and derivative works thereof, and (2) under patent claims -owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in the Original -Work as furnished by the Licensor, to make, use, sell and offer for -sale the Original Work and derivative works thereof, subject to the -following conditions. - -Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any -Derivative Works that You create, all copyright, patent or trademark -notices from the Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any -notices of licensing and any descriptive text identified therein as an -"Attribution Notice." You must cause the Source Code for any Derivative -Works that You create to carry a prominent Attribution Notice reasonably -calculated to inform recipients that You have modified the Original Work. - -Exclusions from License Grant. Neither the names of Licensor, nor the -names of any contributors to the Original Work, nor any of their -trademarks or service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products -derived from this Original Work without express prior written permission -of the Licensor. - -Warranty and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that the copyright -in and to the Original Work is owned by the Licensor or that the Original -Work is distributed by Licensor under a valid current license from the -copyright owner. Except as expressly stated in the immediately proceeding -sentence, the Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS IS" -BASIS and WITHOUT WARRANTY, either express or implied, including, without -limitation, the warranties of NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS -FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL -WORK IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part -of this License. No license to Original Work is granted hereunder except -under this disclaimer. - -Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, -whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall the -Licensor be liable to any person for any direct, indirect, special, -incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a result -of this License or the use of the Original Work including, without -limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure -or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses. This -limitation of liability shall not apply to liability for death or personal -injury resulting from Licensor`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 this exclusion and -limitation may not apply to You. - -License to Source Code. The term "Source Code" means the preferred form of -the Original Work for making modifications to it and all available -documentation describing how to modify the Original Work. Licensor hereby -agrees to provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the Original -Work along with each copy of the Original Work that Licensor distributes. -Licensor reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing a -machine-readable copy of the Source Code in an information repository -reasonably calculated to permit inexpensive and convenient access by You for -as long as Licensor continues to distribute the Original Work, and by -publishing the address of that information repository in a notice immediately -following the copyright notice that applies to the Original Work. - -Mutual Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate -automatically and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You -by this License if You file a lawsuit in any court alleging that any OSI -Certified open source software that is licensed under any license containing -this "Mutual Termination for Patent Action" clause infringes any patent -claims that are essential to use that software. - -Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not otherwise -restricted or conditioned by this License or by law, and Licensor promises -not to interfere with or be responsible for such uses by You. - -This license is Copyright (C) 2002 Lawrence E. Rosen. All rights reserved. -Permission is hereby granted to copy and distribute this license without -modification. This license may not be modified without the express written -permission of its copyright owner. - --- -END OF LICENSE. The following is intended to describe the essential -differences between the Academic Free License (AFL) version 1.0 and other -open source licenses: - -The Academic Free License is similar to the BSD, MIT, UoI/NCSA and Apache -licenses in many respects but it is intended to solve a few problems with -those licenses. - -* The AFL is written so as to make it clear what software is being -licensed (by the inclusion of a statement following the copyright notice -in the software). This way, the license functions better than a template -license. The BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses apply to unidentified software. - -* The AFL contains a complete copyright grant to the software. The BSD -and Apache licenses are vague and incomplete in that respect. - -* The AFL contains a complete patent grant to the software. The BSD, MIT, -UoI/NCSA and Apache licenses rely on an implied patent license and contain -no explicit patent grant. - -* The AFL makes it clear that no trademark rights are granted to the -licensor`s trademarks. The Apache license contains such a provision, but the -BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not. - -* The AFL includes the warranty by the licensor that it either owns the -copyright or that it is distributing the software under a license. None of -the other licenses contain that warranty. All other warranties are disclaimed, -as is the case for the other licenses. - -* The AFL is itself copyrighted (with the right granted to copy and distribute -without modification). This ensures that the owner of the copyright to the -license will control changes. The Apache license contains a copyright notice, -but the BSD, MIT and UoI/NCSA licenses do not. - |
