| 4 | +Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license |
| 5 | +document, but changing it is not allowed. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +Preamble |
| 8 | +This license establishes the terms under which a given free software Package may |
| 9 | +be copied, modified, distributed, and/or redistributed. The intent is that the |
| 10 | +Copyright Holder maintains some artistic control over the development of that |
| 11 | +Package while still keeping the Package available as open source and free |
| 12 | +software. |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +You are always permitted to make arrangements wholly outside of this license |
| 15 | +directly with the Copyright Holder of a given Package. If the terms of this |
| 16 | +license do not permit the full use that you propose to make of the Package, you |
| 17 | +should contact the Copyright Holder and seek a different licensing arrangement. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Definitions |
| 20 | +"Copyright Holder" means the individual(s) or organization(s) named in the |
| 21 | +copyright notice for the entire Package. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +"Contributor" means any party that has contributed code or other material to the |
| 24 | +Package, in accordance with the Copyright Holder's procedures. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +"You" and "your" means any person who would like to copy, distribute, or modify |
| 27 | +the Package. |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +"Package" means the collection of files distributed by the Copyright Holder, and |
| 30 | +derivatives of that collection and/or of those files. A given Package may |
| 31 | +consist of either the Standard Version, or a Modified Version. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +"Distribute" means providing a copy of the Package or making it accessible to |
| 34 | +anyone else, or in the case of a company or organization, to others outside of |
| 35 | +your company or organization. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +"Distributor Fee" means any fee that you charge for Distributing this Package or |
| 38 | +providing support for this Package to another party. It does not mean licensing |
| 39 | +fees. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +"Standard Version" refers to the Package if it has not been modified, or has |
| 42 | +been modified only in ways explicitly requested by the Copyright Holder. |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +"Modified Version" means the Package, if it has been changed, and such changes |
| 45 | +were not explicitly requested by the Copyright Holder. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +"Original License" means this Artistic License as Distributed with the Standard |
| 48 | +Version of the Package, in its current version or as it may be modified by The |
| 49 | +Perl Foundation in the future. |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +"Source" form means the source code, documentation source, and configuration |
| 52 | +files for the Package. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +"Compiled" form means the compiled bytecode, object code, binary, or any other |
| 55 | +form resulting from mechanical transformation or translation of the Source form. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +Permission for Use and Modification Without Distribution |
| 58 | +(1) You are permitted to use the Standard Version and create and use Modified |
| 59 | +Versions for any purpose without restriction, provided that you do not |
| 60 | +Distribute the Modified Version. |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +Permissions for Redistribution of the Standard Version |
| 63 | +(2) You may Distribute verbatim copies of the Source form of the Standard |
| 64 | +Version of this Package in any medium without restriction, either gratis or for |
| 65 | +a Distributor Fee, provided that you duplicate all of the original copyright |
| 66 | +notices and associated disclaimers. At your discretion, such verbatim copies may |
| 67 | +or may not include a Compiled form of the Package. |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +(3) You may apply any bug fixes, portability changes, and other modifications |
| 70 | +made available from the Copyright Holder. The resulting Package will still be |
| 71 | +considered the Standard Version, and as such will be subject to the Original |
| 72 | +License. |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +Distribution of Modified Versions of the Package as Source |
| 75 | +(4) You may Distribute your Modified Version as Source (either gratis or for a |
| 76 | +Distributor Fee, and with or without a Compiled form of the Modified Version) |
| 77 | +provided that you clearly document how it differs from the Standard Version, |
| 78 | +including, but not limited to, documenting any non-standard features, |
| 79 | +executables, or modules, and provided that you do at least ONE of the following: |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +(a) make the Modified Version available to the Copyright Holder of the Standard |
| 82 | +Version, under the Original License, so that the Copyright Holder may include |
| 83 | +your modifications in the Standard Version. |
| 84 | +(b) ensure that installation of your Modified Version does not prevent the user |
| 85 | +installing or running the Standard Version. In addition, the Modified Version |
| 86 | +must bear a name that is different from the name of the Standard Version. |
| 87 | +(c) allow anyone who receives a copy of the Modified Version to make the Source |
| 88 | +form of the Modified Version available to others under |
| 89 | +(i) the Original License or |
| 90 | +(ii) a license that permits the licensee to freely copy, modify and redistribute |
| 91 | +the Modified Version using the same licensing terms that apply to the copy that |
| 92 | +the licensee received, and requires that the Source form of the Modified |
| 93 | +Version, and of any works derived from it, be made freely available in that |
| 94 | +license fees are prohibited but Distributor Fees are allowed. |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +Distribution of Compiled Forms of the Standard Version or Modified Versions |
| 97 | +without the Source |
| 98 | +(5) You may Distribute Compiled forms of the Standard Version without the |
| 99 | +Source, provided that you include complete instructions on how to get the Source |
| 100 | +of the Standard Version. Such instructions must be valid at the time of your |
| 101 | +distribution. If these instructions, at any time while you are carrying out such |
| 102 | +distribution, become invalid, you must provide new instructions on demand or |
| 103 | +cease further distribution. If you provide valid instructions or cease |
| 104 | +distribution within thirty days after you become aware that the instructions are |
| 105 | +invalid, then you do not forfeit any of your rights under this license. |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +(6) You may Distribute a Modified Version in Compiled form without the Source, |
| 108 | +provided that you comply with Section 4 with respect to the Source of the |
| 109 | +Modified Version. |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +Aggregating or Linking the Package |
| 112 | +(7) You may aggregate the Package (either the Standard Version or Modified |
| 113 | +Version) with other packages and Distribute the resulting aggregation provided |
| 114 | +that you do not charge a licensing fee for the Package. Distributor Fees are |
| 115 | +permitted, and licensing fees for other components in the aggregation are |
| 116 | +permitted. The terms of this license apply to the use and Distribution of the |
| 117 | +Standard or Modified Versions as included in the aggregation. |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +(8) You are permitted to link Modified and Standard Versions with other works, |
| 120 | +to embed the Package in a larger work of your own, or to build stand-alone |
| 121 | +binary or bytecode versions of applications that include the Package, and |
| 122 | +Distribute the result without restriction, provided the result does not expose a |
| 123 | +direct interface to the Package. |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +Items That are Not Considered Part of a Modified Version |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +(9) Works (including, but not limited to, modules and scripts) that merely |
| 128 | +extend or make use of the Package, do not, by themselves, cause the Package to |
| 129 | +be a Modified Version. In addition, such works are not considered parts of the |
| 130 | +Package itself, and are not subject to the terms of this license. |
| 131 | + |
| 132 | +General Provisions |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +(10) Any use, modification, and distribution of the Standard or Modified |
| 135 | +Versions is governed by this Artistic License. By using, modifying or |
| 136 | +distributing the Package, you accept this license. Do not use, modify, or |
| 137 | +distribute the Package, if you do not accept this license. |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +(11) If your Modified Version has been derived from a Modified Version made by |
| 140 | +someone other than you, you are nevertheless required to ensure that your |
| 141 | +Modified Version complies with the requirements of this license. |
| 142 | + |
| 143 | +(12) This license does not grant you the right to use any trademark, service |
| 144 | +mark, tradename, or logo of the Copyright Holder. |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +(13) This license includes the non-exclusive, worldwide, free-of-charge patent |
| 147 | +license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import and otherwise |
| 148 | +transfer the Package with respect to any patent claims licensable by the |
| 149 | +Copyright Holder that are necessarily infringed by the Package. If you institute |
| 150 | +patent litigation (including a cross-claim or counterclaim) against any party |
| 151 | +alleging that the Package constitutes direct or contributory patent |
| 152 | +infringement, then this Artistic License to you shall terminate on the date that |
| 153 | +such litigation is filed. |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +(14) Disclaimer of Warranty: THE PACKAGE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER AND |
| 156 | +CONTRIBUTORS "AS IS' AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES. THE IMPLIED |
| 157 | +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR |
| 158 | +NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE DISCLAIMED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY YOUR LOCAL LAW. |
| 159 | +UNLESS REQUIRED BY LAW, NO COPYRIGHT HOLDER OR CONTRIBUTOR WILL BE LIABLE FOR |
| 160 | +ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING IN ANY WAY |
| 161 | +OUT OF THE USE OF THE PACKAGE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH |
| 162 | +DAMAGE. |
