QNX Open Community License Version 1.0
|
|
|
|
THIS QNX OPEN COMMUNITY LICENSE ( "THE OCL", OR "THIS AGREEMENT")
|
|
APPLIES TO PROGRAMS THAT QNX SOFTWARE SYSTEMS LTD. ("QSS") EXPRESSLY
|
|
ELECTS TO LICENSE UNDER THE OCL TERMS. IT ALSO APPLIES TO DERIVATIVE
|
|
WORKS CREATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT THAT CREATORS ELECT TO LICENSE TO
|
|
OTHERS IN SOURCE CODE FORM. ANY USE, REPRODUCTION, MODIFICATION OR
|
|
DISTRIBUTION OF SUCH PROGRAMS CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF
|
|
THE OCL. THE LICENSE RIGHTS GRANTED BELOW ARE CONDITIONAL UPON
|
|
RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE FORMATION OF A
|
|
BINDING CONTRACT. NOTHING ELSE GRANTS PERMISSION TO USE, REPRODUCE,
|
|
MODIFY OR DISTRIBUTE SUCH PROGRAMS OR THEIR DERIVATIVE WORKS. THESE
|
|
ACTIONS ARE OTHERWISE PROHIBITED. CONTACT QSS IF OTHER STEPS ARE
|
|
REQUIRED LOCALLY TO CREATE A BINDING CONTRACT.
|
|
|
|
The OCL is intended to promote the development, use and distribution
|
|
of derivative works created from QSS source code. This includes
|
|
commercial distribution of object code versions under the terms of
|
|
Recipient's own license agreement and, at Recipient's option, sharing
|
|
of source code modifications within the QNX developer's community. The
|
|
license granted under the OCL is royalty free. Recipient is entitled
|
|
to charge royalties for object code versions of derivative works that
|
|
originate with Recipient. If Recipient elects to license source code
|
|
for its derivative works to others, then it must be licensed under the
|
|
OCL. The terms of the OCL are as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. DEFINITIONS
|
|
|
|
"Contribution" means:
|
|
|
|
a. in the case of QSS: (i) the Original Program, where the Original
|
|
Program originates from QSS, (ii) changes and/or additions to
|
|
Unrestricted Open Source, where the Original Program originates
|
|
from Unrestricted Open Source and where such changes and/or
|
|
additions originate from QSS, and (iii) changes and/or additions
|
|
to the Program where such changes and/or additions originate from
|
|
QSS.
|
|
b. in the case of each Contributor, changes and/or additions to the
|
|
Program, where such changes and/or additions originate from and
|
|
are distributed by that particular Contributor.
|
|
|
|
A Contribution 'originates' from a Contributor if it was added to the
|
|
Program by such Contributor itself or anyone acting on such
|
|
Contributor's behalf. Contributions do not include additions to the
|
|
Program which: (i) are separate modules of software distributed in
|
|
conjunction with the Program under their own license agreement, and
|
|
(ii) are not derivative works of the Program.
|
|
|
|
"Contributor" means QSS and any other entity that distributes the
|
|
Program.
|
|
|
|
"Licensed Patents " mean patent claims licensable by Contributor to
|
|
others, which are necessarily infringed by the use or sale of its
|
|
Contribution alone or when combined with the Program.
|
|
|
|
"Unrestricted Open Source" means published source code that is
|
|
licensed for free use and distribution under an unrestricted licensing
|
|
and distribution model, such as the Berkley Software Design ("BSD")
|
|
and "BSD-like" licenses. It specifically excludes any source code
|
|
licensed under any version of the GNU General Public License (GPL) or
|
|
the GNU Lesser/Library GPL. All "Unrestricted Open Source" license
|
|
terms appear or are clearly identified in the header of any affected
|
|
source code for the Original Program.
|
|
|
|
"Original Program" means the original version of the software
|
|
accompanying this Agreement as released by QSS, including source code,
|
|
object code and documentation, if any.
|
|
|
|
"Program" means the Original Program and Contributions.
|
|
|
|
"Recipient" means anyone who receives the Program under this
|
|
Agreement, including all Contributors.
|
|
|
|
2. GRANT OF RIGHTS
|
|
|
|
a. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
|
|
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
|
|
copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
|
|
publicly display, publicly perform, and directly and indirectly
|
|
sublicense and distribute the Contribution of such Contributor, if
|
|
any, and such derivative works, in source code and object code
|
|
form.
|
|
b. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby
|
|
grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent
|
|
license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell,
|
|
import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such
|
|
Contributor, if any, in source code and object code form. This
|
|
patent license shall apply to the combination of the Contribution
|
|
and the Program if, at the time the Contribution is added by the
|
|
Contributor, such addition of the Contribution causes such
|
|
combination to be covered by the Licensed Patents. The patent
|
|
license shall not apply to any other combinations which include
|
|
the Contribution.
|
|
c. Recipient understands that although each Contributor grants the
|
|
licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are
|
|
provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the
|
|
patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity.
|
|
Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims
|
|
brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual
|
|
property rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the
|
|
rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby
|
|
assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual
|
|
property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third party
|
|
patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the
|
|
Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license
|
|
before distributing the Program.
|
|
d. Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has
|
|
sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant
|
|
the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.
|
|
|
|
3. REQUIREMENTS
|
|
|
|
A Contributor may choose to distribute the Program in object code form
|
|
under its own license agreement, provided that:
|
|
|
|
a. it complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
|
|
b. its license agreement:
|
|
i. effectively disclaims on behalf of all Contributors all
|
|
warranties and conditions, express and implied, including
|
|
warranties or conditions of title and non-infringement, and
|
|
implied warranties or conditions of merchantability and
|
|
fitness for a particular purpose;
|
|
ii. effectively excludes on behalf of all Contributors all
|
|
liability for damages, including direct, indirect, special,
|
|
incidental and consequential damages, such as lost profits;
|
|
and
|
|
iii. states that any provisions which differ from this Agreement
|
|
are offered by that Contributor alone and not by any other
|
|
party.
|
|
|
|
If the Program is made available in source code form:
|
|
|
|
a. it must be made available under this Agreement; and
|
|
b. a copy of this Agreement must be included with each copy of the
|
|
Program. Each Contributor must include the following in a
|
|
conspicuous location in the Program along with any other copyright
|
|
or attribution statements required by the terms of any applicable
|
|
Unrestricted Open Source license:
|
|
Copyright {date here}, QNX Software Systems Ltd. and others. All
|
|
Rights Reserved.
|
|
|
|
In addition, each Contributor must identify itself as the originator
|
|
of its Contribution, if any, in a manner that reasonably allows
|
|
subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution.
|
|
|
|
4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION
|
|
|
|
Commercial distributors of software may accept certain
|
|
responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the
|
|
like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use
|
|
of the Program, the Contributor who includes the Program in a
|
|
commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does not
|
|
create potential liability for other Contributors. Therefore, if a
|
|
Contributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering,
|
|
such Contributor ("Commercial Contributor") hereby agrees to defend
|
|
and indemnify every other Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor")
|
|
against any losses, damages and costs (collectively "Losses") arising
|
|
from claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party
|
|
against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts
|
|
or omissions of such Commercial Contributor in connection with its
|
|
distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The
|
|
obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses
|
|
relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property infringement.
|
|
In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly
|
|
notify the Commercial Contributor in writing of such claim, and b)
|
|
allow the Commercial Contributor to control, and cooperate with the
|
|
Commercial Contributor in, the defense and any related settlement
|
|
negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such
|
|
claim at its own expense.
|
|
|
|
For example, a Contributor might include the Program in a commercial
|
|
product offering, Product X. That Contributor is then a Commercial
|
|
Contributor. If that Commercial Contributor then makes performance
|
|
claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance
|
|
claims and warranties are such Commercial Contributor's responsibility
|
|
alone. Under this section, the Commercial Contributor would have to
|
|
defend claims against the other Contributors related to those
|
|
performance claims and warranties, and if a court requires any other
|
|
Contributor to pay any damages as a result, the Commercial Contributor
|
|
must pay those damages.
|
|
|
|
5. NO WARRANTY
|
|
|
|
Recipient acknowledges that there may be errors or bugs in the Program
|
|
and that it is imperative that Recipient conduct thorough testing to
|
|
identify and correct any problems prior to the productive use or
|
|
commercial release of any products that use the Program, and prior to
|
|
the release of any modifications, updates or enhancements thereto.
|
|
|
|
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS
|
|
PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
|
|
KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
|
|
WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON- INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY
|
|
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Each Recipient is solely
|
|
responsible for determining the appropriateness of using and
|
|
distributing the Program and assumes all risks associated with its
|
|
exercise of rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to
|
|
the risks and costs of program errors, compliance with applicable
|
|
laws, damage to or loss of data, programs or equipment, and
|
|
unavailability or interruption of operations.
|
|
|
|
6. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
|
|
|
|
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR
|
|
ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT,
|
|
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING
|
|
WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF
|
|
LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING
|
|
NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR
|
|
DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED
|
|
HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
|
|
|
|
7. GENERAL
|
|
|
|
If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under
|
|
applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of
|
|
the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further
|
|
action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the
|
|
minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.
|
|
|
|
If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with
|
|
respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or
|
|
counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that
|
|
Contributor to such recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as
|
|
of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, If Recipient
|
|
institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a
|
|
cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program
|
|
itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or
|
|
hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's
|
|
rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date such
|
|
litigation is filed.
|
|
|
|
All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it
|
|
fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this
|
|
Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of
|
|
time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's
|
|
rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use
|
|
and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable.
|
|
However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses
|
|
granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and
|
|
survive.
|
|
|
|
QSS may publish new versions (including revisions) of this Agreement
|
|
from time to time. Each new version of the Agreement will be given a
|
|
distinguishing version number. The Program (including Contributions)
|
|
may always be distributed subject to the version of the Agreement
|
|
under which it was received. In addition, after a new version of the
|
|
Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to distribute the
|
|
Program (including its Contributions) under the new version. No one
|
|
other than QSS has the right to modify this Agreement. Except as
|
|
expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, Recipient receives
|
|
no rights or licenses to the intellectual property of any Contributor
|
|
under this Agreement, whether expressly, by implication, estoppel or
|
|
otherwise. All rights in the Program not expressly granted under this
|
|
Agreement are reserved.
|
|
|
|
This Agreement is governed by the laws in force in the Province of
|
|
Ontario, Canada without regard to the conflict of law provisions
|
|
therein. The parties expressly disclaim the provisions of the United
|
|
Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
|
|
No party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this
|
|
Agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Each
|
|
party waives its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation.
