Microsoft Public License (MS-PL)
This license governs use of the accompanying software. If you use the
software, you accept this license. If you do not accept the license,
do not use the software.
1. Definitions
The terms "reproduce," "reproduction," "derivative works," and
"distribution" have the same meaning here as under U.S. copyright law.
A "contribution" is the original software, or any additions or changes
to the software.
A "contributor" is any person that distributes its contribution under
this license. "Licensed patents" are a contributor's patent claims
that read directly on its contribution.
2. Grant of Rights
(A) Copyright Grant - Subject to the terms of this license, including
the license conditions and limitations in section 3, each
contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
copyright license to reproduce its contribution, prepare derivative
works of its contribution, and distribute its contribution or any
derivative works that you create.
(B) Patent Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor
grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under
its licensed patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale,
import, and/or otherwise dispose of its contribution in the software
or derivative works of the contribution in the software.
3. Conditions and Limitations
(A) No Trademark License - This license does not grant you rights to use
any contributors' name, logo, or trademarks.
(B) If you bring a patent claim against any contributor over patents that
you claim are infringed by the software, your patent license from such
contributor to the software ends automatically.
(C) If you distribute any portion of the software, you must retain all
copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices that are present
in the software.
(D) If you distribute any portion of the software in source code form, you
may do so only under this license by including a complete copy of this
license with your distribution. If you distribute any portion of the
software in compiled or object code form, you may only do so under a
license that complies with this license.
(E) The software is licensed "as-is." You bear the risk of using it. The
contributors give no express warranties, guarantees or conditions. You
may have additional consumer rights under your local laws which this
license cannot change. To the extent permitted under your local laws,
the contributors exclude the implied warranties of merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
