Microsoft Permissive 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.

   (F) If you distribute the software or derivative works with programs you
   develop, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless all
   contributors from any claims, including attorneys' fees, related to the
   distribution or use of your programs.  For clarity, you have no such
   obligations to a contributor for any claims based solely on the unmodified
   contributions of that contributor.

    (G) If you make any additions or changes to the original software, you
   may only distribute them under a new namespace.  In addition, you will
   clearly identify your changes or additions as your own.
