Artistic License 2.0
|
|
Copyright (c) 2000-2006, The Perl Foundation.
|
|
|
|
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
|
|
license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
|
|
|
Preamble
|
|
|
|
This license establishes the terms under which a given free software
|
|
Package may be copied, modified, distributed, and/or redistributed. The
|
|
intent is that the Copyright Holder maintains some artistic control over
|
|
the development of that Package while still keeping the Package available
|
|
as open source and free software.
|
|
|
|
You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly outside of this
|
|
license directly with the Copyright Holder of a given Package. If the terms
|
|
of this license do not permit the full use that you propose to make of the
|
|
Package, you should contact the Copyright Holder and seek a different
|
|
licensing arrangement.
|
|
|
|
Definitions
|
|
|
|
"Copyright Holder" means the individual(s) or organization(s) named in the
|
|
copyright notice for the entire Package.
|
|
|
|
"Contributor" means any party that has contributed code or other material
|
|
to the Package, in accordance with the Copyright Holder's procedures.
|
|
|
|
"You" and "your" means any person who would like to copy, distribute, or

|
|
|
|
"Package" means the collection of files distributed by the Copyright

|
Package may consist of either the Standard Version, or a Modified Version.
|
|
|
|
"Distribute" means providing a copy of the Package or making it accessible
|
|
to anyone else, or in the case of a company or organization, to others
|
|
outside of your company or organization.
|
|
|
|
"Distributor Fee" means any fee that you charge for Distributing this
|
|
Package or providing support for this Package to another party. It does not
|
|
mean licensing fees.
|
|
|
|
"Standard Version" refers to the Package if it has not been modified, or
|
|
has been modified only in ways explicitly requested by the Copyright
|
|
Holder.
|
|
|
|
"Modified Version" means the Package, if it has been changed, and such
|
|
changes were not explicitly requested by the Copyright Holder.
|
|
|
|
"Original License" means this Artistic License as Distributed with the
|
|
Standard Version of the Package, in its current version or as it may be
|
|
modified by The Perl Foundation in the future.
|
|
|
|
"Source" form means the source code, documentation source, and
|
|
configuration files for the Package.
|
|
|
|
"Compiled" form means the compiled bytecode, object code, binary, or any
|
|
other form resulting from mechanical transformation or translation of the
|
|
Source form.
|
|
|
|
Permission for Use and Modification Without Distribution
|
|
|
|
(1) You are permitted to use the Standard Version and create and use
|
|
Modified Versions for any purpose without restriction, provided that you do
|
|
not Distribute the Modified Version.
|
|
|
|
Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version
|
|
|
|
(2) You may Distribute verbatim copies of the Source form of the Standard
|
|
Version of this Package in any medium without restriction, either gratis or
|
|
for a Distributor Fee, provided that you duplicate all of the original
|
|
copyright notices and associated disclaimers. At your discretion, such
|
|
verbatim copies may or may not include a Compiled form of the Package.
|
|
|
|
(3) You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other
|
|
modifications made available from the Copyright Holder. The resulting
|
|
Package will still be considered the Standard Version, and as such will be
|
|
subject to the Original License.
|
|
|
|
Distribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Source
|
|
|
|
(4) You may Distribute your Modified Version as Source (either gratis or
|
|
for a Distributor Fee, and with or without a Compiled form of the Modified
|
|
Version) provided that you clearly document how it differs from the
|
|
Standard Version, including, but not limited to, documenting any
|
|
non-standard features, executables, or modules, and provided that you do at
|
|
least ONE of the following:
|
|
|
|
(a) make the Modified Version available to the Copyright Holder of the
|
|
Standard Version, under the Original License, so that the Copyright Holder
|
|
may include your modifications in the Standard Version.
|
|
|
|
(b) ensure that installation of your Modified Version does not prevent the
|
|
user installing or running the Standard Version. In addition, the Modified
|
|
Version must bear a name that is different from the name of the Standard
|
|
Version.
|
|
|
|
(c) allow anyone who receives a copy of the Modified Version to make the
|
|
Source form of the Modified Version available to others under
|
|
|
|
(i) the Original License or
|
|
|
|
(ii) a license that permits the licensee to freely copy, modify and
|
|
redistribute the Modified Version using the same licensing terms that apply
|
|
to the copy that the licensee received, and requires that the Source form
|
|
of the Modified Version, and of any works derived from it, be made freely
|
|
available in that license fees are prohibited but Distributor Fees are
|
|
allowed.
|
|
|
|
Distribution of Compiled Forms of the Standard Version or Modified Versions
|
|
without the Source
|
|
|
|
(5) You may Distribute Compiled forms of the Standard Version without the
|
|
Source, provided that you include complete instructions on how to get the
|
|
Source of the Standard Version. Such instructions must be valid at the time
|
|
of your distribution. If these instructions, at any time while you are
|
|
carrying out such distribution, become invalid, you must provide new
|
|
instructions on demand or cease further distribution. If you provide valid
|
|
instructions or cease distribution within thirty days after you become
|
|
aware that the instructions are invalid, then you do not forfeit any of
|
|
your rights under this license.
|
|
|
|
(6) You may Distribute a Modified Version in Compiled form without the
|
|
Source, provided that you comply with Section 4 with respect to the Source
|
|
of the Modified Version.
|
|
|
|
Aggregating or Linking the Package
|
|
|
|
(7) You may aggregate the Package (either the Standard Version or Modified
|
|
Version) with other packages and Distribute the resulting aggregation
|
|
provided that you do not charge a licensing fee for the Package.
|
|
Distributor Fees are permitted, and licensing fees for other components in
|
|
the aggregation are permitted. The terms of this license apply to the use
|
|
and Distribution of the Standard or Modified Versions as included in the
|
|
aggregation.
|
|
|
|
(8) You are permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions with other
|
|
works, to embed the Package in a larger work of your own, or to build
|
|
stand-alone binary or bytecode versions of applications that include the
|
|
Package, and Distribute the result without restriction, provided the result
|
|
does not expose a direct interface to the Package.
|
|
|
|
Items That are Not Considered Part of a Modified Version
|
|
|
|
(9) Works (including, but not limited to, modules and scripts) that merely
|
|
extend or make use of the Package, do not, by themselves, cause the Package
|
|
to be a Modified Version. In addition, such works are not considered parts
|
|
of the Package itself, and are not subject to the terms of this license.
|
|
|
|
General Provisions
|
|
|
|
(10) Any use, modification, and distribution of the Standard or Modified
|
|
Versions is governed by this Artistic License. By using, modifying or
|
|
distributing the Package, you accept this license. Do not use, modify, or
|
|
distribute the Package, if you do not accept this license.
|
|
|
|
(11) If your Modified Version has been derived from a Modified Version made
|
|
by someone other than you, you are nevertheless required to ensure that
|
|
your Modified Version complies with the requirements of this license.
|
|
|
|
(12) This license does not grant you the right to use any trademark,
|
|
service mark, tradename, or logo of the Copyright Holder.

|
|
patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import and
|
|
otherwise transfer the Package with respect to any patent claims licensable
|
|
by the Copyright Holder that are necessarily infringed by the Package. If
|
|
you institute patent litigation (including a cross-claim or counterclaim)
|
|
against any party alleging that the Package constitutes direct or
|
|
contributory patent infringement, then this Artistic License to you shall
|
|
terminate on the date that such litigation is filed.
