copyleft-next 0.3.0 ("this License")
Release date: 2013-05-16
1. License Grants; No Trademark License
Subject to the terms of this License, I grant You:
a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright
license, to reproduce, Distribute, prepare derivative works of, publicly perform
and publicly display My Work.
b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable patent
license under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale,
and import Covered Works.
This License does not grant any rights in My name, trademarks, service marks,
or logos.
2. Distribution: General Conditions
You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that You (i) inform recipients
how they can obtain a copy of this License; (ii) satisfy the applicable conditions
of sections 3 through 6; and (iii) preserve all Legal Notices contained in
My Work (to the extent they remain pertinent). "Legal Notices" means copyright
notices, license notices, license texts, and author attributions, but does
not include logos, other graphical images, trademarks or trademark legends.
3. Conditions for Distributing Derived Works; Outbound GPL Compatibility
If You Distribute a Derived Work, You must license the entire Derived Work
as a whole under this License, with prominent notice of such licensing. This
condition may not be avoided through such means as separate Distribution of
portions of the Derived Work. You may additionally license the Derived Work
under the GPL, so that the recipient may further Distribute the Derived Work
under either this License or the GPL.
4. Condition Against Further Restrictions; Inbound License Compatibility
When Distributing a Covered Work, You may not impose further restrictions
on the exercise of rights in the Covered Work granted under this License.
This condition is not excused merely because such restrictions result from
Your compliance with conditions or obligations extrinsic to this License (such
as a court order or an agreement with a third party).
However, You may Distribute a Covered Work incorporating material governed
by a license that is both OSI-Approved and FSF-Free as of the release date
of this License, provided that Your Distribution complies with such other
license.
5. Conditions for Distributing Object Code
You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work, provided that you
accompany the Object Code with a URL through which the Corresponding Source
is made available, at no charge, by some standard or customary means of providing
network access to source code.
If you Distribute the Object Code in a physical product or tangible storage
medium ("Product"), the Corresponding Source must be available through such
URL for two years from the date of Your most recent Distribution of the Object
Code in the Product. However, if the Product itself contains or is accompanied
by the Corresponding Source (made available in a customarily accessible manner),
You need not also comply with the first paragraph of this section.
Each recipient of the Covered Work from You is an intended third-party beneficiary
of this License solely as to this section 5, with the right to enforce its
terms.
6. Symmetrical Licensing Condition for Upstream Contributions
If You Distribute a work to Me specifically for inclusion in or modification
of a Covered Work (a "Patch"), and no explicit licensing terms apply to the
Patch, You license the Patch under this License, to the extent of Your copyright
in the Patch. This condition does not negate the other conditions of this
License, if applicable to the Patch.
7. Nullification of Copyleft/Proprietary Dual Licensing
If I offer to license, for a fee, a Covered Work under terms other than a
license that is OSI-Approved or FSF-Free as of the release date of this License
or a numbered version of copyleft-next released by the Copyleft-Next Project,
then the license I grant You under section 1 is no longer subject to the conditions
in sections 2 through 5.
8. Copyleft Sunset
The conditions in sections 2 through 5 no longer apply once fifteen years
have elapsed from the date of My first Distribution of My Work under this
License.
9. Pass-Through
When You Distribute a Covered Work, the recipient automatically receives a
license to My Work from Me, subject to the terms of this License.
10. Termination
Your license grants under section 1 are automatically terminated if You
a) fail to comply with the conditions of this License, unless You cure such
noncompliance within thirty days after becoming aware of it, or
b) initiate a patent infringement litigation claim (excluding declaratory
judgment actions, counterclaims, and cross-claims) alleging that any part
of My Work directly or indirectly infringes any patent.
Termination of Your license grants extends to all copies of Covered Works
You subsequently obtain. Termination does not terminate the rights of those
who have received copies or rights from You subject to this License.
To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary merely
for running it, such permission is not terminable.
11. Later License Versions
The Copyleft-Next Project may release new versions of copyleft-next, designated
by a distinguishing version number ("Later Versions"). Unless I explicitly
remove the option of Distributing Covered Works under Later Versions, You
may Distribute Covered Works under any Later Version.
12. No Warranty
My Work is provided "as-is", without warranty. You bear the risk of using
it. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Distributor of My Work
excludes the implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose and non-infringement.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will any Distributor
of My Work be liable to You for any damages whatsoever, whether direct, indirect,
special, incidental, or consequential damages, whether arising under contract,
tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even where the Distributor knew
or should have known about the possibility of such damages.
14. Severability
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License does not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this License. Such
provision is to be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid
and enforceable.

to it.
