copyleft-next ("this License")
1. Definitions.
1. License Grants.
Subject to the terms of this License, We grant you:
a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright
license, for the duration of Our copyright in the Received Work, to
make, copy, Distribute, publicly perform and publicly display Covered
Works, in any medium.
b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable patent license
under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale,
import and otherwise transfer Covered Works. "Licensed Patents" means
all patent claims licensable by Us, now or in the future, that are
necessarily infringed by making, using, or selling the Received Work,
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
consequence of further modification of the Received Work.
This License is not intended to exclude or limit any rights you have
under applicable copyright doctrines of fair use, fair dealing or other
equivalents, and any implied license or other defense to infringement
that may otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
2. No Trademark License.
This License does not grant any rights in Our name, trademarks, service
marks, or logos.
3. Proprietary Relicensing.
If, more than one year after Our Distribution of the Received Work under
this License, we offer a work that would be a Covered Work had you
prepared it, under a license other than (i) a version of copyleft-next,
(ii) a license authorized under section 10, or (iii) a license approved
by the Open Source Initiative, sections 4 through 11 of this License no
longer apply to you.
4. Distribution: General Conditions.
You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that you:
a) preserve all legal notices and textual author attributions contained
in the Received Work (in the case of a Derived Work, to the extent
such notices remain pertinent);
b) inform recipients how they can obtain a copy of this License; and
c) satisfy the applicable conditions of sections 5 through 9.
5. Distributing Derived Works.
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.
6. Direct Licensing.
When you Distribute a Covered Work, the recipient automatically receives
from Us a license to the Received Work subject to the terms of this
License.
7. No Further Restrictions.
You may not impose further restrictions on the exercise of the rights
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 (for example, a court order or an
agreement with a third party).
Mere Distribution of a Covered Work incorporating material licensed
under the Apache License 2.0 does not impose further restrictions under
this section.
8. Distribution of Object Code in Products.
You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work in a Product,
provided that you accompany the Product with either: (i) a durable
physical medium customarily used for software interchange that contains
the Corresponding Source of the Covered Work, or (ii) notice of a
network location through which such Corresponding Source is available,
for the Minimum Period, under this License and at no charge. "Minimum
Period" means the longer of (i) two years from the date of your
Distribution of the Covered Work in the Product, or (ii) the period
during which you offer spare parts or customer support for the Product.
9. Network Distribution of Object Code.
You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work from a network
location, provided that you accompany the Object Code with clear
directions indicating how the Corresponding Source may be obtained under
this License from a network location at no further charge and in a
reasonably equivalent manner.
10. Outbound (A)GPL Compatibility.
You may Distribute a Covered Work under one or more of the following
licenses published by the Free Software Foundation: (i) GNU General
Public License, version 2; (ii) GNU Affero General Public License,
version 3; (iii) later versions of the foregoing licenses.
11. Termination.
11.1 If you fail to comply with the conditions of this License, then,
unless you cure such noncompliance within thirty days after becoming
aware of it, your license grants under section 1 are automatically
terminated.
11.2 If you initiate a patent infringement litigation claim (excluding
declaratory judgment actions, counterclaims, and cross-claims)
alleging that any part of the Received Work directly or indirectly
infringes any patent, then your license grants under section 1 are
automatically terminated.
11.3 Termination of your rights disqualifies you from receiving new
licenses covering the Received Work, but it does not terminate the
rights of those who have received copies or rights from you subject to
this License.
11.4 To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary
for running it, such permission is not terminable.
12. Later License Versions.
The Copyleft-Next Project may publish new versions of copyleft-next,
designated by a distinguishing version number. Unless We explicitly
remove the option of Distributing Covered Works under later published
versions of copyleft-next, you may Distribute Covered Works under any
later version of copyleft-next.

15. Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License

necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
