-
- 3. Distribution Obligations.
-
- 3.1. Application of License. The Modifications which You contribute are governed
- by the terms of this License, including without limitation Section 2.2. The
- Source Code version of Covered Code may be distributed only under the terms
- of this License, and You must include a copy of this License with every copy
- of the Source Code You distribute. You may not offer or impose any terms on
- any Source Code version that alters or restricts the applicable version of
- this License or the recipients' rights hereunder. However, You may include
- an additional document offering the additional rights described in Section
- 3.5.
-
- 3.2. Availability of Source Code. Any Modification which You contribute must
- be made available in Source Code form under the terms of this License either
- on the same media as an Executable version or via an accepted Electronic Distribution
- Mechanism to anyone to whom you made an Executable version available; and
- if made available via Electronic Distribution Mechanism, must remain available
- for at least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became available,
- or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version of that particular Modification
- has been made available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensuring
- that the Source Code version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution
- Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
-
- 3.3. Description of Modifications. You must cause all Covered Code to which
- you contribute to contain a file documenting the changes You made to create
- that Covered Code and the date of any change. You must include a prominent
- statement that the Modification is derived, directly or indirectly, from Original
- Code provided by the Initial Developer and including the name of the Initial
- Developer in (a) the Source Code, and (b) in any notice in an Executable version
- or related documentation in which You describe the origin or ownership of
- the Covered Code.
-
- 3.4. Intellectual Property Matters
-
- (a) Third Party Claims. If You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual
- property right in particular functionality or code (or its utilization under
- this License), you must include a text file with the source code distribution
- titled ``LEGAL'' which describes the claim and the party making the claim
- in sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact. If you obtain
- such knowledge after You make Your Modification available as described in
- Section 3.2, You shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make
- available thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate
- mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calculated to inform those who received
- the Covered Code that new knowledge has been obtained.
-
- (b) Contributor APIs. If Your Modification is an application programming interface
- and You own or control patents which are reasonably necessary to implement
- that API, you must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
-
- 3.5. Required Notices. You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each
- file of the Source Code, and this License in any documentation for the Source
- Code, where You describe recipients' rights relating to Covered Code. If You
- created one or more Modification(s), You may add your name as a Contributor
- to the notice described in Exhibit A. If it is not possible to put such notice
- in a particular Source Code file due to its structure, then you must include
- such notice in a location (such as a relevant directory file) where a user
- would be likely to look for such a notice. You may choose to offer, and to
- charge a fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations to
- one or more recipients of Covered Code. However, You may do so only on Your
- own behalf, and not on behalf of the Initial Developer or any Contributor.
- You must make it absolutely clear than any such warranty, support, indemnity
- or liability obligation is offered by You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify
- the Initial Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by
- the Initial Developer or such Contributor as a result of warranty, support,
- indemnity or liability terms You offer.
-
- 3.6. Distribution of Executable Versions. You may distribute Covered Code
- in Executable form only if the requirements of Section 3.1-3.5 have been met
- for that Covered Code, and if You include a notice stating that the Source
- Code version of the Covered Code is available under the terms of this License,
- including a description of how and where You have fulfilled the obligations
- of Section 3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included in any notice in
- an Executable version, related documentation or collateral in which You describe
- recipients' rights relating to the Covered Code. You may distribute the Executable
- version of Covered Code under a license of Your choice, which may contain
- terms different from this License, provided that You are in compliance with
- the terms of this License and that the license for the Executable version
- does not attempt to limit or alter the recipient's rights in the Source Code
- version from the rights set forth in this License. If You distribute the Executable
- version under a different license You must make it absolutely clear that any
- terms which differ from this License are offered by You alone, not by the
- Initial Developer or any Contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the Initial
- Developer and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial
- Developer or such Contributor as a result of any such terms You offer.
-
- 3.7. Larger Works. You may create a Larger Work by combining Covered Code
- with other code not governed by the terms of this License and distribute the
- Larger Work as a single product. In such a case, You must make sure the requirements
- of this License are fulfilled for the Covered Code.
-
- 4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation. If it is impossible for
- You to comply with any of the terms of this License with respect to some or
- all of the Covered Code due to statute or regulation then You must: (a) comply
- with the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b) describe
- the limitations and the code they affect. Such description must be included
- in the LEGAL file described in Section 3.4 and must be included with all distributions
- of the Source Code. Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation,
- such description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary
- skill to be able to understand it.
-
- 5. Application of this License.
-
- This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
- notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.
-
- 6. CONNECTION TO MOZILLA PUBLIC LICENSE
