</center>
|
||
|
|
<p>1. You are granted the non-exclusive rights set forth in this
|
||
|
|
license provided you agree to and comply with any and all conditions
|
||
|
|
in this license. Whole or partial distribution of the Software, or
|
||
|
|
software items that link with the Software, in any form signifies

|
acceptance of this license.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>2. You may copy and distribute the Software in unmodified form
|
||
|
|
provided that the entire package, including - but not restricted to -
|
||
|
|
copyright, trademark notices and disclaimers, as released by the
|
||
|
|
initial developer of the Software, is distributed.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>3. You may make modifications to the Software and distribute your
|
||
|
|
modifications, in a form that is separate from the Software, such as
|
||
|
|
patches. The following restrictions apply to modifications:</p>
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>a. Modifications must not alter or remove any copyright notices in
|
||
|
|
the Software.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>b. When modifications to the Software are released under this
|
||
|
|
license, a non-exclusive royalty-free right is granted to the initial
|
||
|
|
developer of the Software to distribute your modification in future
|
||
|
|
versions of the Software provided such versions remain available under
|
||
|
|
these terms in addition to any other license(s) of the initial
|
||
|
|
developer.</p>

|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>a. You must include this license document in the distribution.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>b. You must ensure that all recipients of the machine-executable
|
||
|
|
forms are also able to receive the complete machine-readable source
|
||
|
|
code to the distributed Software, including all modifications, without
|
||
|
|
any charge beyond the costs of data transfer, and place prominent
|
||
|
|
notices in the distribution explaining this.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>c. You must ensure that all modifications included in the
|
||
|
|
machine-executable forms are available under the terms of this
|
||
|
|
license.</p>
|
||
|
|
</blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>5. You may use the original or modified versions of the Software to
|
||
|
|
compile, link and run application programs legally developed by you or
|
||
|
|
by others.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>6. You may develop application programs, reusable components and
|
||
|
|
other software items that link with the original or modified versions
|
||
|
|
of the Software. These items, when distributed, are subject to the
|
||
|
|
following requirements:</p>
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p>a. You must ensure that all recipients of machine-executable forms
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
machine-readable source code to the items without any charge beyond
|
||
|
|
the costs of data transfer.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>b. You must explicitly license all recipients of your items to use
|
||
|
|
and re-distribute original and modified versions of the items in both
|
||
|
|
machine-executable and source code forms. The recipients must be able
|
||
|
|
to do so without any charges whatsoever, and they must be able to
|
||
|
|
re-distribute to anyone they choose.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>c. If the items are not available to the general public, and the
|
||
|
|
initial developer of the Software requests a copy of the items, then
|
||
|
|
you must supply one.</p>
