copyleft-next 0.1.1 ("this License")
Release date: 2013-02-08
1. License Grants.
Subject to the terms of this License, We grant You:
a) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
copyright license, to make, copy, Distribute, publicly perform and
publicly display Covered Works, in any medium.
b) A non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable
patent license under Licensed Patents to make, have made, use, sell,
offer for sale, and import Covered Works.
This License does not exclude or limit any rights You have under
applicable copyright law.
2. No Trademark License.
This License does not grant any rights in Our name, trademarks, service
marks, or logos.
3. Effect of Proprietary Relicensing.
If, more than one year after Our first Distribution of the Received Work
under this License, We offer to license a work that would be a Covered
Work had You prepared it, under terms other than (i) a version of
copyleft-next released by the Copyleft-Next Project, (ii) a license
authorized under section 10, or (iii) a license approved by the Open
Source Initiative as of 1 January 2013, sections 4 through 8 of this
License no longer apply to You.
4. Distribution: General Conditions.
You may Distribute Covered Works, provided that You (i) inform
recipients how they can obtain a copy of this License; (ii) satisfy the
applicable conditions of sections 5 through 8; and (iii) preserve all
Legal Notices contained in the Received Work (to the extent they remain
pertinent). "Legal Notices" means copyright notices, license notices,
license texts, and author attributions, but does not include logos,
other graphical images or trademark legends.
5. Conditions for 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. Condition Against Further Restrictions.
When Distributing a Covered Work, You may not impose further
restrictions on the exercise of rights in the Covered Work 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 (such as 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.
7. Conditions for Distributing Object Code in Products.
You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work in a physical
product or tangible storage medium ("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, at no
charge, for two years from the date of Your most recent Distribution of
the Covered Work in the Product. In either case, Corresponding Source
must be provided under this License.
8. Conditions for Network Distribution of Object Code.
You may Distribute an Object Code form of a Covered Work through a
computer network, 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 charge and in a reasonably
equivalent manner.
9. Pass-Through.
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.
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.
Your license grants under section 1 are automatically terminated if You
a) fail to comply with the conditions of this License, unless You cure
such noncompliance within thirty days after becoming aware of it, or
b) 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.
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.
To the extent permission to make copies of a Covered Work is necessary
merely for running it, such permission is not terminable.
12. Later License Versions.
The Copyleft-Next Project may release new versions of copyleft-next,
designated by a distinguishing version number ("Later Versions").
Unless We explicitly remove the option of Distributing Covered Works
under Later Versions, You may Distribute Covered Works under any Later
Version.

15. Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this License
does not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of
this License. Such provision is to be reformed to the minimum extent
necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

a skilled developer to generate the Covered Work from the Source Code
provided under (i); and (iii) a list clearly identifying all Separate
Works (other than those provided in compliance with (ii)) that were
specifically used in building and installing the Covered Work (for
example, a specified proprietary compiler including its version
number). Corresponding Source must be machine-readable.
"Covered Work" means the Received Work or a Derived Work.
"Derived Work" means a work of authorship that copies from, modifies,
adapts, is based on, contains, transforms or translates all or part of

Separate Work.
"Object Code" means any form of a work that is not Source Code.
"Received Work" means the particular work of authorship We license to
You under this License.

modifications to it.
"We"/"Us"/"Our" refers to the individual or legal entity that places
