-Open Source Community License
-Type C, Version 1.0
-(c) Syncleus, Inc., 2004
-
-
-
-A. DEFINITIONS
-
-For the purpose of this license we will set forth certain definitions
-for the ease of communications:
-
-"you" - Any person granted use of source code under this license by the
-inclusion of this license in the source by the author and copyright holder.
-
-"program" - The Source code this license is bundled as well as any executables
-and derivative work under copyright law. Any program this license is assigned
-to, and means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law.
-Meaning any work containing the program or a portion of it, modified or
-verbatim, and/or translated into other languages.
-
-"Authors' Recursive License" - A special license granted to certain
-contributors of the program. See section F below.
-
-"this license" - The Open Source Public License - Type C Version 1.0 or any
-later version at your option, as published by Syncleus, Inc. All
-future versions will be in the same spirit but will correct any legal
-oversights addressed by earlier versions.
-
-"source code" - The preferred form of the program for making modifications to
-it that make up the program in part or in whole. For executables this means the
-source code, plus any modules that are needed to compile it, including scripts
-that control its compiling. This need not include components not normally
-needed for compiling such as operating system libraries, or the kernel.
-
-"distribute" - The act of distributing, publishing, or otherwise making the
-program available to one or more persons, in whole or in part.
-
-"entity" - Any one of the following: person, group of persons, company
-or entity under law.
-
-
-
-B. SCOPE
-
-This license addresses copying, distribution, execution and modification of the
-source code. Everything else is outside the scope of this license and no rights
-are granted either written or implied outside its scope.
-
-You may not copy, distribute, execute, or sub-license except under the terms
-and conditions of this license. Any attempt to do so outside of this license is
-void and will immediately and automatically terminate any rights you have under
-this license. This license is guaranteed not to be terminated so long as you
-follow the rules and conditions of this license.
-
-You are not required to accept this license since you have not signed it.
-However if you do not accept this license then all privileges and rights
-granted herein is void. Unless specifically granted through another legal
-license you shall not have the right to copy, distribute, execute or
-sub-license this program in part or in whole.
-
-If for any reason you are not able to follow the conditions of this license
-including, but not limited to, court order, agreement, or law, then you are not
-excused from the conditions of this license. If for any reason you cannot
-follow the terms and conditions of this license then you are not given the
-privileges associated with them. For example, if you cannot provide the source
-code to accompany the executable you cannot distribute the program.
-
-
-
-C. EXECUTION
-
-This License does not restrict execution of the program, including any uses of
-its output so long as the terms and conditions of this license are upheld. The
-right to execution is immediately revoked for any program under this license
-found in violation of the terms.
-
-
-
-D. DISTRIBUTION
-
-You may copy and distribute the program according to the terms of this license
-so long as you perform at least one of the following:
-
-1. Offer the source code to be distributed through the same medium by which
-the program is distributed at no additional cost except for the cost of
-offering and distributing the source code.
-
-2. Provide the program with a written offer for physical distribution good for
-at least one year or until the distributing entity no longer exists, whichever
-comes first.
-
-3. Provide the program bundled with the source code. If the program is offered
-without the bundled source code then the source code must still be made
-available through one of the two options above.
-
-
-
-E. LICENSE PROPAGATION
-
-You may copy and distribute the program verbatim, according to the terms and
-conditions of this license, so long as all copyright and warranty disclaimers
-remain unchanged and all references to this license remain. All copies of the
-source code and its individual pages must appropriately and in plain sight
-contain a notice of this license. The program must be distributed with a copy
-of this license and all notices should point to the included copy.
-
-Propagation of this license, and the authors' recursive license below, is not
-effected by mere aggregation of the program with other work on the same storage
-medium. The propagation of these licenses only applies to work which were done
-due to knowledge of the source code or output or were intended at some point in
-its design to interact primarily with the program. This includes, but is not
-limited to, libraries designed for the program, source code that is compiled
-using the source code or portions of it, or programs designed specifically to
-interact with this program closely invoking its execution with arguments or
-inputs.
-
-Any time you distribute the program the recipient is automatically granted this
-license from the original licensor. You may not impose any greater restrictions
-to the recipient and it is not your responsibility to enforce this compliance
-of this license by its recipients.
-
-You may copy and distribute, according to the terms and conditions of this
-license, any modified version of the program or portion of it, creating a
-derivative work, as long as all of the following conditions are met:
-
-1. You must record what files you have changed and when they were changed and
-include that record in the source code. Any files part of the source code which
-were changed must have clear and obvious notices of what was changed. You can
-record your changes in an external file included with the source code so long as
-the files which were changed contain a clear and obvious notice pointing to the
-external file.
-
-2. You must allow any code you distribute that is derived from the program or
-contains the program, in whole or in part, to be governed under this license.
-
-3. You must grant an Author's Recursive License, as described in the section
-Authors' Recursive License to any copyright holder of any source code used in
-the program that your modifications interact with. You also grant the same
-Authors' Recursive License to anyone that copyright holder had to issue an
-Authors' Recursive License to in order to publish modifications. Interactions
-are included, but not limited to, calling of functions, calling or using parts
-of a class, using variables provided by the interface, and any similar
-interaction.
-
-4. If any notices are displayed in the output of the program making a notice of
-warranty or license they must remain intact. If the nature of the program is
-changed such that the output containing any such notices are no longer used an
-equivalent notice must be placed elsewhere in the output in plain sight. The
-only exception to this is if the program will no longer have any output at all,
-or the output it produces is inappropriate to contain such a notice.
-
-
-
-F. AUTHORS' RECURSIVE LICENSE
-
-The Recursive Authors' License gives the following rights and privileges to the
-individuals explained in section E subsection 3 above. The license is as
-follows, ending at the end of this section:
-
-Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without
-modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met:
-
-1. Redistribution of source code must retain the any copyright notices, and a
-copy of this license, and any references to this license in the source code.
-
-2. Redistribution in binary form must reproduce any copyright notices, and a
-copy of this license.
