|
|
(b) under patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by Initial Developer,

|
to make, have made, use and sell ("Utilize") the Original Code (or portions

|
thereof), but solely to the extent that any such patent is reasonably necessary
|

|
|
|
|
3. DISTRIBUTION OBLIGATIONS
|
|
|
|
3.1. Application of License. The Modifications which You create or to which
|
|
You contribute are governed by the terms of this License, including without
|
|
limitation Section 2.2. The Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed
|
|
only under the terms of this License or a future version of this License released
|
|
under Section 6.1, and You must include a copy of this License with every
|
|
copy of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms
|
|
on any Source Code version that alters or restricts the applicable version
|
|
of this License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include
|
|
an additional document offering the additional rights described in Section
|
|
3.5.
|
|
|
|
3.2. Availability of Source Code. Any Modification which You create or to
|
|
which You contribute must be made available in Source Code form under the
|
|
terms of this License via an accepted Electronic Distribution Mechanism to
|
|
anyone to whom you made an Executable version available and to the Initial
|
|
Developer; and if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must
|
|
remain available for at least twelve (12) months after the date it initially
|
|
became available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version of
|
|
that particular Modification has been made available to such recipients. You
|
|
are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code version remains available
|
|
even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
|
|
You are responsible for notifying the Initial Developer of the Modification
|
|
and the location of the Source if a contact means is provided. Red Hat will
|
|
be acting as maintainer of the Source and may provide an Electronic Distribution
|
|
mechanism for the Modification to be made available. You can contact Red Hat
|
|
to make the Modification available and to notify the Initial Developer. (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ecos/)
|
|
|
|
3.3. Description of Modifications. You must cause all Covered Code to which
|
|
you contribute to contain a file documenting the changes You made to create
|
|
that Covered Code and the date of any change. You must include a prominent
|
|
statement that the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original
|
|
Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the Initial
|
|
Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version
|
|
or related documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership of
|
|
the Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
|
|
|
|
(a) Third Party Claims. If You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual
|
|
property right in particular functionality or code (or its utilization under
|
|
this License), you must include a text file with the source code distribution
|
|
titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim and the party making the claim in
|
|
sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If you obtain
|
|
such knowledge after You make Your Modification available as described in
|
|
Section 3.2, You shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make
|
|
available thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
|
|
mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who received
|
|
the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
|
|
|
|
(b) Contributor APIs. If Your Modification is an application programming interface
|
|
and You own or control patents which are reasonably necessary to implement
|
|
that API, you must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
|
|
|
|
3.5. Required Notices. You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each
|
|
file of the Source Code, and this License in any documentation for the Source
|
|
Code, where You describe recipients' rights relating to Covered Code. If You
|
|
created one or more Modification(s), You may add your name as a Contributor
|
|
to the Source Code. If it is not possible to put such notice in a particular
|
|
Source Code file due to its structure, then you must include such notice in
|
|
a location (such as a relevant directory file) where a user would be likely
|
|
to look for such a notice. You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for,
|
|
warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients
|
|
of Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial
|
|
Developer or any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that any such
|
|
warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by You alone,
|
|
and You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial Developer and every Contributor
|
|
for any liability incurred by the Initial Developer or such Contributor as
|
|
a result of warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms You offer.
|
|
|
|
3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute Covered Code
|
|
in Executable form only if the requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met
|
|
for that Covered Code, and if You include a notice stating that the Source
|
|
Code version of the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License,
|
|
including a description of how and where You have fulfilled the obligations
|
|
of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included in any notice in
|
|
an Executable version, related documentation or collateral in which You describe
|
|
recipients' rights relating to the Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable
|
|
version of Covered Code under a license of Your choice, which may contain
|
|
terms different from this License, provided that You are in compliance with
|
|
the terms of this License and that the license for the Executable version
|
|
does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code
|
|
version from the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable
|
|
version under a different license You must make it absolutely clear that any
|
|
terms which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the
|
|
Initial Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
|
|
Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial
|
|
Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer.
|
|
|
|
If you distribute executable versions containing Covered Code, you must reproduce
|
|
the notice in Exhibit B in the documentation and/or other materials provided
|
|
with the product.
|
|
|
|
3.7. Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code
|
|
with other code not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the
|
|
Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements
|
|
of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
4. INABILITY TO COMPLY DUE TO STATUTE OR REGULATION
|
|
|
|
If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this License
|
|
with respect to some or all of the Covered Code due to statute or regulation
|
|
then You must: (a) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent
|
|
possible; (b) cite the statute or regulation that prohibits you from adhering
|
|
to the license; and (c) describe the limitations and the code they affect.
|
|
Such description must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4
|
|
and must be included with all distributions of the Source Code. Except to
|
|
the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such description must be sufficiently
|
|
detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it. You
|
|
must submit this LEGAL file to Red Hat for review, and You will not be able
|
|
use the covered code in any means until permission is granted from Red Hat
|
|
to allow for the inability to comply due to statute or regulation.
|
|
|
|
5. APPLICATION OF THIS LICENSE
|
|
|
|
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
|
|
notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.
|
|
|
|
Red Hat may include Covered Code in products without such additional products
|
|
becoming subject to the terms of this License, and may license such additional
|
|
products on different terms from those contained in this License.
|
|
|
|
Red Hat may license the Source Code of Red Hat Branded Code without Red Hat
|
|
Branded Code becoming subject to the terms of this License, and may license
|
|
Red Hat Branded Code on different terms from those contained in this License.
|
|
Contact Red Hat for details of alternate licensing terms available.
|
|
|
|
6. VERSIONS OF THE LICENSE
|
|
|
|
6.1. New Versions. Red Hat may publish revised and/or new versions of the
|
|
License from time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing version
|
|
number.
|
|
|
|
6.2. Effect of New Versions. Once Covered Code has been published under a
|
|
particular version of the License, You may always continue to use it under
|
|
the terms of that version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code under
|
|
the terms of any subsequent version of the License published by Red Hat. No
|
|
one other than Red Hat has the right to modify the terms applicable to Covered
|
|
Code beyond what is granted under this and subsequent Licenses.
|
|
|
|
6.3. Derivative Works. If you create or use a modified version of this License
|
|
(which you may only do in order to apply it to code which is not already Covered
|
|
Code governed by this License), you must (a) rename Your license so that the
|
|
phrases "ECOS", "eCos", "Red Hat", "RHEPL" or any confusingly similar phrase
|
|
do not appear anywhere in your license and (b) otherwise make it clear that
|
|
your version of the license contains terms which differ from the Red Hat eCos
|
|
Public License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, Original Code
|
|
or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A shall not of themselves
|
|
be deemed to be modifications of this License.)
|
|
|
|
7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY
|
|
|
|
COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY
|
|
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES
|
|
THAT THE COVERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR
|
|
PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE
|
|
OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN
|
|
ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME
|
|
THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER
|
|
OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED
|
|
CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
|
|
|
|
8. TERMINATION
|
|
|
|
This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically
|
|
if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to cure such breach within
|
|
30 days of becoming aware of the breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code
|
|
which are properly granted shall survive any termination of this License.
|
|
Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination
|
|
of this License shall survive.
|
|
|
|
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
|
|
|
|
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING
|
|
NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER
|
|
CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF
|
|
SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL,
|
|
INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
|
|
DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION,
|
|
OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL
|
|
HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF
|
|
LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING
|
|
FROM SUCH PARTY'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 THAT EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO
|
|
YOU.
|
|
|
|
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS
|
|
|
|
The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R.
|
|
2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial
|
|
computer software documentation," as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212
|
|
(Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through
|
|
227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code
|
|
with only those rights set forth herein.
|
|
|
|
11. MISCELLANEOUS
|
|
|
|
This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject matter hereof.
|
|
If any provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such provision
|
|
shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. This
|
|
License shall be governed by California law provisions (except to the extent
|
|
applicable law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law
|
|
provisions. With respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen
|
|
of, or an entity chartered or registered to do business in, the United States
|
|
of America: (a) unless otherwise agreed in writing, all disputes relating
|
|
to this License (excepting any dispute relating to intellectual property rights)
|
|
shall be subject to final and binding arbitration, with the losing party paying
|
|
all costs of arbitration; (b) any arbitration relating to this Agreement shall
|
|
be held in Santa Clara County, California, under the auspices of JAMS/EndDispute;
|
|
and (c) any litigation relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the
|
|
jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern District of California,
|
|
with venue lying in Santa Clara County, California, with the losing party
|
|
responsible for costs, including without limitation, court costs and reasonable
|
|
attorneys fees and expenses. The application of the United Nations Convention
|
|
on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any
|
|
law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall be
|
|
construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
|
|
|
|
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS
|
|
|
|
Except in cases where another Contributor has failed to comply with Section
|
|
3.4, You are responsible for damages arising, directly or indirectly, out
|
|
of Your utilization of rights under this License, based on the number of copies
|
|
of Covered Code you made available, the revenues you received from utilizing
|
|
such rights, and other relevant factors. You agree to work with affected parties
|
|
to distribute responsibility on an equitable basis.
|
|
|
|
13. ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO THE RED HAT ECOS PUBLIC LICENSE
|
|
|
|
Nothing in this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Red Hat from licensing
|
|
under different terms than this License any code which Red Hat otherwise would
|
|
have a right to license.
|
|
|
|
Red Hat and logo - This License does not grant any rights to use the trademark
|
|
Red Hat, the Red Hat logo, eCos logo, even if such marks are included in the

that required in Exhibit B.
|
|
|
|
Inability to Comply Due to Contractual Obligation - To the extent that Red
|
|
Hat is limited contractually from making third party code available under
|
|
this License, Red Hat may choose to integrate such third party code into Covered
|
|
Code without being required to distribute such third party code in Source
|
|
Code form, even if such third party code would otherwise be considered "Modifications"
|
|
under this License.
