The CERN OHL is copyright CERN. Anyone is welcome +to use the CERN OHL, in unmodified form only, for the distribution of +their own Open Hardware designs. Any other right is reserved. Release +of hardware designs under the CERN OHL does not constitute an +endorsement of the licensor or its designs nor does it imply any +involvement by CERN in the development of such designs. + +1. Definitions + +In this Licence, the following terms have the following meanings: + +“Licence” means this CERN OHL. + +“Documentation” means schematic diagrams, designs, circuit or circuit +board layouts, mechanical drawings, flow charts and descriptive text, +and other explanatory material that is explicitly stated as being made +available under the conditions of this Licence. The Documentation may +be in any medium, including but not limited to computer files and +representations on paper, film, or any other media. + +“Documentation Location” means a location where the Licensor has +placed Documentation, and which he believes will be publicly +accessible for at least three years from the first communication to +the public or distribution of Documentation. + +“Product” means either an entire, or any part of a, device built using +the Documentation or the modified Documentation. + +“Licensee” means any natural or legal person exercising rights under +this Licence. + +“Licensor” means any natural or legal person that creates or modifies +Documentation and subsequently communicates to the public and/ or +distributes the resulting Documentation under the terms and conditions +of this Licence. + +A Licensee may at the same time be a Licensor, and vice versa. + +Use of the masculine gender includes the feminine and neuter genders +and is employed solely to facilitate reading. + +2. Applicability + +2.1. This Licence governs the use, copying, modification, +communication to the public and distribution of the Documentation, and +the manufacture and distribution of Products. By exercising any right +granted under this Licence, the Licensee irrevocably accepts these +terms and conditions. + +2.2. This Licence is granted by the Licensor directly to the Licensee, +and shall apply worldwide and without limitation in time. The Licensee +may assign his licence rights or grant sub-licences. + +2.3. This Licence does not extend to software, firmware, or code +loaded into programmable devices which may be used in conjunction with +the Documentation, the modified Documentation or with Products, unless +such software, firmware, or code is explicitly expressed to be subject +to this Licence. The use of such software, firmware, or code is +otherwise subject to the applicable licence terms and conditions. + +3. Copying, modification, communication to the public and distribution +of the Documentation + +3.1. The Licensee shall keep intact all copyright and trademarks +notices, all notices referring to Documentation Location, and all +notices that refer to this Licence and to the disclaimer of warranties +that are included in the Documentation. He shall include a copy +thereof in every copy of the Documentation or, as the case may be, +modified Documentation, that he communicates to the public or +distributes. + +3.2. The Licensee may copy, communicate to the public and distribute +verbatim copies of the Documentation, in any medium, subject to the +requirements specified in section 3.1. + +3.3. The Licensee may modify the Documentation or any portion thereof +provided that upon modification of the Documentation, the Licensee +shall make the modified Documentation available from a Documentation +Location such that it can be easily located by an original Licensor +once the Licensee communicates to the public or distributes the +modified Documentation under section 3.4, and, where required by +section 4.1, by a recipient of a Product. However, the Licensor shall +not assert his rights under the foregoing proviso unless or until a +Product is distributed. + +3.4. The Licensee may communicate to the public and distribute the +modified Documentation (thereby in addition to being a Licensee also +becoming a Licensor), always provided that he shall: + +a) comply with section 3.1; + +b) cause the modified Documentation to carry prominent notices stating +that the Licensee has modified the Documentation, with the date and +description of the modifications; + +c) cause the modified Documentation to carry a new Documentation +Location notice if the original Documentation provided for one; + +d) make available the modified Documentation at the same level of +abstraction as that of the Documentation, in the preferred format for +making modifications to it (e.g. the native format of the CAD tool as +applicable), and in the event that format is proprietary, in a format +viewable with a tool licensed under an OSI-approved license if the +proprietary tool can create it; and + +e) license the modified Documentation under the terms and conditions +of this Licence or, where applicable, a later version of this Licence +as may be issued by CERN. + +3.5. The Licence includes a non-exclusive licence to those patents or +registered designs that are held by, under the control of, or +sub-licensable by the Licensor, to the extent necessary to make use of +the rights granted under this Licence. The scope of this section 3.5 +shall be strictly limited to the parts of the Documentation or +modified Documentation created by the Licensor. + +4. Manufacture and distribution of Products + +4.1. The Licensee may manufacture or distribute Products always +provided that, where such manufacture or distribution requires a +licence under this Licence the Licensee provides to each recipient of +such Products an easy means of accessing a copy of the Documentation +or modified Documentation, as applicable, as set out in section 3. + +4.2. The Licensee is invited to inform any Licensor who has indicated +his wish to receive this information about the type, quantity and +dates of production of Products the Licensee has (had) manufactured + +5. Warranty and liability + +5.1. DISCLAIMER – The Documentation and any modified Documentation are +provided "as is" and any express or implied warranties, including, but +not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, of satisfactory +quality, non-infringement of third party rights, and fitness for a +particular purpose or use are disclaimed in respect of the +Documentation, the modified Documentation or any Product. The Licensor +makes no representation that the Documentation, modified +Documentation, or any Product, does or will not infringe any patent, +copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right. The entire risk as +to the use, quality, and performance of a Product shall be with the +Licensee and not the Licensor. This disclaimer of warranty is an +essential part of this Licence and a condition for the grant of any +rights granted under this Licence. The Licensee warrants that it does +not act in a consumer capacity. + +5.2. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY – The Licensor shall have no liability +for direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, +punitive or other damages of any character including, without +limitation, procurement of substitute goods or services, loss of use, +data or profits, or business interruption, however caused and on any +theory of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), product +liability or otherwise, arising in any way in relation to the +Documentation, modified Documentation and/or the use, manufacture or +distribution of a Product, even if advised of the possibility of such +damages, and the Licensee shall hold the Licensor(s) free and harmless +from any liability, costs, damages, fees and expenses, including +claims by third parties, in relation to such use. + +6. General + +6.1. Except for the rights explicitly granted hereunder, this Licence +does not imply or represent any transfer or assignment of intellectual +property rights to the Licensee. + +6.2. The Licensee shall not use or make reference to any of the names +(including acronyms and abbreviations), images, or logos under which +the Licensor is known, save in so far as required to comply with +section 3. Any such permitted use or reference shall be factual and +shall in no event suggest any kind of endorsement by the Licensor or +its personnel of the modified Documentation or any Product, or any +kind of implication by the Licensor or its personnel in the +preparation of the modified Documentation or Product. + +6.3. CERN may publish updated versions of this Licence which retain +the same general provisions as this version, but differ in detail so +far this is required and reasonable. New versions will be published +with a unique version number. + +6.4. This Licence shall terminate with immediate effect, upon written +notice and without involvement of a court if the Licensee fails to +comply with any of its terms and conditions, or if the Licensee +initiates legal action against Licensor in relation to this +Licence.

By contrast, the GNU General Public +License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free +software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This +General Public License applies to most of the Free Software +Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to +using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by +the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to +your programs, too. + + When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not +price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you +have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for +this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it +if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it +in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. + + To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid +anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. +These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you +distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. + + For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether +gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that +you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the +source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their +rights. + + We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and +(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, +distribute and/or modify the software. + + Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain +that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free +software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we +want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so +that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original +authors' reputations. + + Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software +patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free +program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the +program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any +patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. + + The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and +modification follow. + + GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE + TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION + + 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains +a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed +under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, +refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" +means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: +that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, +either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another +language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in +the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". + +Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not +covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of +running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program +is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the +Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). +Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. + + 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's +source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you +conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate +copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the +notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; +and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License +along with the Program. + +You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and +you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. + + 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion +of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and +distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 +above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: + + a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices + stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. + + b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in + whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any + part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third + parties under the terms of this License. + + c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively + when run, you must cause it, when started running for such + interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an + announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a + notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide + a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under + these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this + License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but + does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on + the Program is not required to print an announcement.) + +These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If +identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, +and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in +themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those +sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you +distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based +on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of +this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the +entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. + +Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest +your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to +exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or +collective works based on the Program. + +In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program +with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of +a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under +the scope of this License. + + 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, +under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of +Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: + + a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable + source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections + 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, + + b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three + years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your + cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete + machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be + distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium + customarily used for software interchange; or, + + c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer + to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is + allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you + received the program in object code or executable form with such + an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) + +The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for +making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source +code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any +associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to +control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a +special exception, the source code distributed need not include +anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary +form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the +operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component +itself accompanies the executable. + +If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering +access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent +access to copy the source code from the same place counts as +distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not +compelled to copy the source along with the object code. + + 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program +except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt +otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is +void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. +However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under +this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such +parties remain in full compliance. + + 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not +signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or +distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are +prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by +modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the +Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and +all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying +the Program or works based on it. + + 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the +Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the +original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to +these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further +restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. +You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to +this License. + + 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent +infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), +conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or +otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not +excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot +distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this +License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you +may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent +license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by +all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then +the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to +refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. + +If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under +any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to +apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other +circumstances. + +It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any +patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any +such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the +integrity of the free software distribution system, which is +implemented by public license practices. Many people have made +generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed +through that system in reliance on consistent application of that +system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing +to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot +impose that choice. + +This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to +be a consequence of the rest of this License. + + 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in +certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the +original copyright holder who places the Program under this License +may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding +those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among +countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates +the limitation as if written in the body of this License. + + 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions +of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will +be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to +address new problems or concerns. + +Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program +specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any +later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions +either of that version or of any later version published by the Free +Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of +this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software +Foundation. + + 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free +programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author +to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free +Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes +make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals +of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and +of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. + + NO WARRANTY + + 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY +FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN +OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES +PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED +OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF +MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS +TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE +PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, +REPAIR OR CORRECTION. + + 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING +WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR +REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, +INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING +OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED +TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY +YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER +PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE +POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. + + END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS + + How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs + + If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest +possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it +free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. + + To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest +to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively +convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least +the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. + + + Copyright (C) + + This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify + it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or + (at your option) any later version. + + This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Of course, the commands you use may +be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be +mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program. + +You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your +school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if +necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names: + + Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program + `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker. + + , 1 April 1989 + Ty Coon, President of Vice + +This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into +proprietary programs.

If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General +Public License instead of this License. -- cgit v1.2.3
