3. Distribution Obligations.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00

2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
(a) Third Party Claims.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
If You have knowledge that a party claims an intellectual property right in
particular functionality or code (or its utilization under this License),
you 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 you obtain such knowledge after
You make Your Modification available as described in Section 3.2, You shall
promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies You make 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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
If Your Modification is an application programming interface and You own or
control patents which are reasonably necessary to implement that API, you
must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
3.5. Required Notices.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
You must duplicate the notice in Exhibit A in each file of the Source Code,
and this License in any documentation for the Source Code, where You describe
recipients' rights relating to Covered Code. If You created one or more Modification(s),
You may add your name as a Contributor to the notice described in Exhibit
A. 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 file) where a user would be likely to look for such
a notice. 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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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 descr ibe recipients' rights relating to the Covered
Code. You may distribute the Executable version of Covered Code 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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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 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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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 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.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
This License applies to code to which the Initial Developer has attached the
notice in Exhibit A, and to related Covered Code.

6.1. New Versions.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00

2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00

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 Floris van den Berg

to Covered Code created under this License.
6.3. Derivative Works.
2018-12-19 02:04:43 +00:00
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 "FreeImage",
`FreeImage Public License", "FIPL", or any confusingly similar phrase do not
appear anywhere in your license and (b) otherwise make it clear that your
version of the license contains terms which differ from the FreeImage Public
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.)
