Distribution Obligations. + +3.1. Application of License. The Modifications which You create or to +     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 or a future version of this License released under +     Section 6.1, 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 create or +     to 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 Contributor has knowledge that a license under a third +         party's intellectual property rights is required to exercise +         the rights granted by such Contributor under Sections 2.1 or +         2.2, Contributor 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 Contributor obtains +         such knowledge after the Modification is made available as +         described in Section 3.2, Contributor shall promptly modify +         the LEGAL file in all copies Contributor makes 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 Contributor's Modifications include an application +        programming interface and Contributor has knowledge of patent +        licenses which are reasonably necessary to implement that API, +        Contributor must also include this information in the LEGAL +        file. + +    (c) Representations. + +        Contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant to +        Section 3.4(a) above, Contributor believes that Contributor's +        Modifications are Contributor's original creation(s) and/or +        Contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed +        by this License.   + +trend +<http://trenduhren.de/> + +3.5. Required Notices. + +     You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the +     Source Code. 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) +     where a user would be likely to look for such a notice. If You +     created one or more Modification(s) You may add your name as a +     Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit A. You must also +     duplicate this License in any documentation for the Source Code +     where You describe recipients' rights or ownership rights +     relating to Covered Code. 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 or ownership +     rights 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 LEDs 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, judicial order, 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. Versions of the License. + +6.1. New Versions. + +     Netizen Pty Ltd ("Netizen ") may publish revised and/or new +     versions of the License from time to time. Each version will be +     given a distinguishing version number. + +6.2. Effect of New Versions. + +     Once Covered Code has been published under a particular version +     of the License, You may always continue to use it under the terms +     of that version. You may also choose to use such Covered Code +     under the terms of any subsequent version of the License +     published by Netizen. No one other than Netizen has the right to +     modify the terms applicable to Covered Code created under this +     License. + +6.3. Derivative Works. + +     If You create or use a modified version of this License (which +     you may only do in order to apply it to code which is not already +     Covered Code governed by this License), You must (a) rename Your +     license so that the phrases "Netizen", "NOSL" or any confusingly +     similar phrase do not appear in your license (except to note that +     your license differs from this License) and (b) otherwise make it +     clear that Your version of the license contains terms which +     differ from the Netizen Open Source License and Xen Open Source +     License. (Filling in the name of the Initial Developer, Original +     Code or Contributor in the notice described in Exhibit A shall +     not of themselves be deemed to be modifications of this License.) + +7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. + +   COVERED CODE IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, +   WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, +   INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COVERED CODE IS +   FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR +   NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE +   OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE +   DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR ANY +   OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, +   REPAIR OR CORRECTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN +   ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY COVERED CODE IS +   AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER. + +7.1 To the extent permitted by law and except as expressly provided to +    the contrary in this Agreement, all warranties whether express, +    implied, statutory or otherwise, relating in any way to the +    subject matter of this Agreement or to this Agreement generally, +    are excluded. Where legislation implies in this Agreement any +    condition or warranty and that legislation avoids or prohibits +    provisions in a contract excluding or modifying the application of +    or the exercise of or liability under such term, such term shall +    be deemed to be included in this Agreement. However, the liability +    of Supplier for any breach of such term shall be limited, at the +    option of Supplier, to any one or more of the following: if the +    breach related to goods: the replacement of the goods or the +    supply of equivalent goods; the repair of such goods; the payment +    of the cost of replacing the goods or of acquiring equivalent +    goods; or the payment of the cost of having the goods repaired; +    and if the breach relates to services the supplying of the +    services again; or the payment of the cost of having the services +    supplied again. + +8. TERMINATION. + +8.1. This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate +     automatically if You fail to comply with terms herein and fail to +     cure such breach within 30 days of becoming aware of the +     breach. All sublicenses to the Covered Code which are properly +     granted shall survive any termination of this License. Provisions +     which, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the +     termination of this License shall survive. + +8.2. If You initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement +     claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against Initial +     Developer or a Contributor (the Initial Developer or Contributor +     against whom You file such action is referred to as +     "Participant") alleging that: + +     (a) such Participant's Contributor Version directly or indirectly +         infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such +         Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 of this +         License shall, upon 60 days notice from Participant terminate +         prospectively, unless if within 60 days after receipt of +         notice You either: (i) agree in writing to pay Participant a +         mutually agreeable reasonable royalty for Your past and +         future use of Modifications made by such Participant, or (ii) +         withdraw Your litigation claim with respect to the +         Contributor Version against such Participant. If within 60 +         days of notice, a reasonable royalty and payment arrangement +         are not mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the +         litigation claim is not withdrawn, the rights granted by +         Participant to You under Sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 +         automatically terminate at the expiration of the 60 day +         notice period specified above. + +     (b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such +         Participant's Contributor Version, directly or indirectly +         infringes any patent, then any rights granted to You by such +         Participant under Sections 2.1(b) and 2.2(b) are revoked +         effective as of the date You first made, used, sold, +         distributed, or had made, Modifications made by that +         Participant. + +8.3. If You assert a patent infringement claim against Participant +     alleging that such Participant's Contributor Version directly or +     indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved +     (such as by license or settlement) prior to the initiation of +     patent infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the +     licenses granted by such Participant under Sections 2.1 or 2.2 +     shall be taken into account in determining the amount or value of +     any payment or license. + +8.4. In the event of termination under Sections 8.1 or 8.2 above, all +     end user license agreements (excluding distributors and +     resellers) which have been validly granted by You or any +     distributor hereunder prior to termination shall survive +     termination. + +9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. + +   UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT +   (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE +   INITIAL DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF +   COVERED CODE, OR ANY SUPPLIER OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO +   ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL +   DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR +   LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, +   OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH +   PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH +   DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY +   FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE +   TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME +   JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF +   INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND +   LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. + +10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS. + +    The Covered Code is a "commercial item," as that term is defined +    in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of "commercial computer +    software" and "commercial computer software documentation," as +    such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent +    with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4 +    (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users acquire Covered Code +    with only those rights set forth herein. + +11. MISCELLANEOUS. + +    This License represents the complete agreement concerning subject +    matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be +    unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent +    necessary to make it enforceable.  This Agreement shall be +    governed by and construed according to the law of the State of +    Victoria. The parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive +    jurisdiction of the Courts of Victoria and Australia and any +    Courts hearing appeals from such Courts. This Agreement is deemed +    to have been made in Victoria.  The application of the United +    Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of +    Goods is expressly excluded. Any law or regulation which provides +    that the language of a contract shall be construed against the +    drafter shall not apply to this License. + +12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS. + +    As between Initial Developer and the Contributors, each party is +    responsible for claims and damages arising, directly or +    indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License +    and You agree to work with Initial Developer and Contributors to +    distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis. Nothing +    herein is intended or shall be deemed to constitute any admission +    of liability. + +13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE. + +    Initial Developer may designate portions of the Covered Code as +    "Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means that the Initial +    Developer permits you to utilize portions of the Covered Code +    under Your choice of the NPL or the alternative licenses, if any, +    specified by the Initial Developer in the file described in +    Exhibit A. + +EXHIBIT A - Netizen Open Source License + +``The contents of this file are subject to the Netizen Open Source +License Version 1.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except +in compliance with the License.
