Any use of the Work, other +than as authorised under this Licence is prohibited (to the extent such use is covered by a right +of the copyright holder of the Work). +The Original Work is provided under the terms of this Licence when the Licensor (as defined +below) has placed the following notice immediately following the copyright notice for the +Original Work: +Licensed under the EUPL V.1.0 +or has expressed by any other mean his willingness to license under the EUPL. +1. Definitions +In this Licence, the following terms have the following meaning: +− The Licence: this Licence. +− The Original Work or the Software: the software distributed and/or communicated by +the Licensor under this Licence, available as Source Code and also as Executable +Code as the case may be. +− Derivative Works: the works or software that could be created by the Licensee, based +upon the Original Work or modifications thereof. This Licence does not define the +extent of modification or dependence on the Original Work required in order to +classify a work as a Derivative Work; this extent is determined by copyright law +applicable in the country mentioned in Article 15. +− The Work: the Original Work and/or its Derivative Works. +− The Source Code: the human-readable form of the Work which is the most +convenient for people to study and modify. +− The Executable Code: any code which has generally been compiled and which is +meant to be interpreted by a computer as a program. +− The Licensor: the natural or legal person that distributes and/or communicates the +Work under the Licence. +− Contributor(s): any natural or legal person who modifies the Work under the +Licence, or otherwise contributes to the creation of a Derivative Work. +− The Licensee or “You”: any natural or legal person who makes any usage of the +Software under the terms of the Licence. − Distribution and/or Communication: any act of selling, giving, lending, renting, +distributing, communicating, transmitting, or otherwise making available, on-line or +off-line, copies of the Work at the disposal of any other natural or legal person. +2. Scope of the rights granted by the Licence +The Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licensable +licence to do the following, for the duration of copyright vested in the Original Work: +− use the Work in any circumstance and for all usage, +− reproduce the Work, +− modify the Original Work, and make Derivative Works based upon the Work, +− communicate to the public, including the right to make available or display the Work +or copies thereof to the public and perform publicly, as the case may be, the Work, +− distribute the Work or copies thereof, +− lend and rent the Work or copies thereof, +− sub-license rights in the Work or copies thereof. +Those rights can be exercised on any media, supports and formats, whether now known or +later invented, as far as the applicable law permits so. +In the countries where moral rights apply, the Licensor waives his right to exercise his moral +right to the extent allowed by law in order to make effective the licence of the economic rights +here above listed. +The Licensor grants to the Licensee royalty-free, non exclusive usage rights to any patents +held by the Licensor, to the extent necessary to make use of the rights granted on the Work +under this Licence. +3. Communication of the Source Code +The Licensor may provide the Work either in its Source Code form, or as Executable Code. If +the Work is provided as Executable Code, the Licensor provides in addition a machinereadable copy of the Source Code of the Work along with each copy of the Work that the +Licensor distributes or indicates, in a notice following the copyright notice attached to the +Work, a repository where the Source Code is easily and freely accessible for as long as the +Licensor continues to distribute and/or communicate the Work. +4. Limitations on copyright +Nothing in this Licence is intended to deprive the Licensee of the benefits from any exception +or limitation to the exclusive rights of the rights owners in the Original Work or Software, of +the exhaustion of those rights or of other applicable limitations thereto. +5. Obligations of the Licensee +The grant of the rights mentioned above is subject to some restrictions and obligations +imposed on the Licensee. Those obligations are the following: Attribution right: the Licensee shall keep intact all copyright, patent or trademarks notices +and all notices that refer to the Licence and to the disclaimer of warranties. The Licensee must +include a copy of such notices and a copy of the Licence with every copy of the Work he/she +distributes and/or communicates. The Licensee must cause any Derivative Work to carry +prominent notices stating that the Work has been modified and the date of modification. +Copyleft clause: If the Licensee distributes and/or communicates copies of the Original +Works or Derivative Works based upon the Original Work, this Distribution and/or +Communication will be done under the terms of this Licence. The Licensee (becoming +Licensor) cannot offer or impose any additional terms or conditions on the Work or +Derivative Work that alter or restrict the terms of the Licence. +Compatibility clause: If the Licensee Distributes and/or Communicates Derivative Works or +copies thereof based upon both the Original Work and another work licensed under a +Compatible Licence, this Distribution and/or Communication can be done under the terms of +this Compatible Licence. For the sake of this clause, “Compatible Licence” refers to the +licences listed in the appendix attached to this Licence. Should the Licensee’s obligations +under the Compatible Licence conflict with his/her obligations under this Licence, the +obligations of the Compatible Licence shall prevail. +Provision of Source Code: When distributing and/or communicating copies of the Work, the +Licensee will provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code or indicate a repository +where this Source will be easily and freely available for as long as the Licensee continues to +distribute and/or communicate the Work. +Legal Protection: This Licence does not grant permission to use the trade names, trademarks, +service marks, or names of the Licensor, except as required for reasonable and customary use +in describing the origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the copyright notice. +6. Chain of Authorship +The original Licensor warrants that the copyright in the Original Work granted hereunder is +owned by him/her or licensed to him/her and that he/she has the power and authority to grant +the Licence. +Each Contributor warrants that the copyright in the modifications he/she brings to the Work +are owned by him/her or licensed to him/her and that he/she has the power and authority to +grant the Licence. +Each time You, as a Licensee, receive the Work, the original Licensor and subsequent +Contributors grant You a licence to their contributions to the Work, under the terms of this +Licence. +7. Disclaimer of Warranty +The Work is a work in progress, which is continuously improved by numerous contributors. It +is not a finished work and may therefore contain defects or “bugs” inherent to this type of +software development. +For the above reason, the Work is provided under the Licence on an “as is” basis and without +warranties of any kind concerning the Work, including without limitation merchantability, +fitness for a particular purpose, absence of defects or errors, accuracy, non-infringement of +intellectual property rights other than copyright as stated in Article 6 of this Licence. This disclaimer of warranty is an essential part of the Licence and a condition for the grant of +any rights to the Work. +8. Disclaimer of Liability +Except in the cases of wilful misconduct or damages directly caused to natural persons, the +Licensor will in no event be liable for any direct or indirect, material or moral, damages of +any kind, arising out of the Licence or of the use of the Work, including without limitation, +damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, loss of data or +any commercial damage, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such +damage. However, the Licensor will be liable under statutory product liability laws as far such +laws apply to the Work. +9. Additional agreements +While distributing the Original Work or Derivative Works, You may choose to conclude an +additional agreement to offer, and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, +indemnity, or other liability obligations and/or services consistent with this Licence. +However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only on your own behalf and on your +sole responsibility, not on behalf of the original Licensor or any other Contributor, and only if +You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability incurred +by, or claims asserted against such Contributor by the fact You have accepted any such +warranty or additional liability. +10. Acceptance of the Licence +The provisions of this Licence can be accepted by clicking on an icon “I agree” placed under +the bottom of a window displaying the text of this Licence or by affirming consent in any +other similar way, in accordance with the rules of applicable law. Clicking on that icon +indicates your clear and irrevocable acceptance of this Licence and all of its terms and +conditions. +Similarly, you irrevocably accept this Licence and all of its terms and conditions by +exercising any rights granted to You by Article 2 of this Licence, such as the use of the Work, +the creation by You of a Derivative Work or the Distribution and/or Communication by You +of the Work or copies thereof. +11. Information to the public +In case of any Distribution and/or Communication of the Work by means of electronic +communication by You (for example, by offering to download the Work from a remote +location) the distribution channel or media (for example, a website) must at least provide to +the public the information requested by the applicable law regarding the identification and +address of the Licensor, the Licence and the way it may be accessible, concluded, stored and +reproduced by the Licensee. +12. Termination of the Licence +The Licence and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically upon any breach by +the Licensee of the terms of the Licence. +Such a termination will not terminate the licences of any person who has received the Work +from the Licensee under the Licence, provided such persons remain in full compliance with +the Licence. 13. Miscellaneous +Without prejudice of Article 9 above, the Licence represents the complete agreement between +the Parties as to the Work licensed hereunder. +If any provision of the Licence is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, this will not +affect the validity or enforceability of the Licence as a whole. Such provision will be +construed and/or reformed so as necessary to make it valid and enforceable. +The European Commission may put into force translations and/or binding new versions of +this Licence, so far this is required and reasonable. New versions of the Licence will be +published with a unique version number. The new version of the Licence becomes binding for +You as soon as You become aware of its publication. +14. Jurisdiction +Any litigation resulting from the interpretation of this License, arising between the European +Commission, as a Licensor, and any Licensee, will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Court +of Justice of the European Communities, as laid down in article 238 of the Treaty establishing +the European Community. +Any litigation arising between Parties, other than the European Commission, and resulting +from the interpretation of this License, will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the +competent court where the Licensor resides or conducts its primary business. +15. Applicable Law +This Licence shall be governed by the law of the European Union country where the Licensor +resides or has his registered office. +This licence shall be governed by the Belgian law if: +− a litigation arises between the European Commission, as a Licensor, and any +Licensee; +− the Licensor, other than the European Commission, has no residence or registered +office inside a European Union country. + ===Appendix +“Compatible Licences” according to article 5 EUPL are: +− General Public License (GPL) v. 2 +− Open Software License (OSL) v. 2.1, v. 3.0 +− Common Public License v. 1.0 +− Eclipse Public License v. 1.0 +− Cecill v. 2.0 + |
