-1. Intent
-
-We want specified Free/Libre and Open Source Software ("FLOSS") to be
-able to use the specified GPL-licensed XSD runtime library (libxsd) and
-XSD generated code (collectively called the "Program") despite the fact
-that not all FLOSS licenses are compatible with version 2 of the GNU
-General Public License (the "GPL").
-
-It is our intent to allow distribution of the entire Derivative Work
-(including the Program) under one or more of the FLOSS licenses listed
-in section 3 (section 2.a). It is also our intent to disallow simple
-relicensing of the Program for the sole purpose of using it in
-proprietary applications (section 2.b and 2.c). As an example, consider
-two hypothetical scenarios:
-
- a) You created a program that uses the XSD generated code and the XSD
- runtime library to access information in XML instance documents.
- Your program performs useful computations based on this information
- (sections 2.b and 2.c are satisfied). You distribute your program,
- including the XSD generated code and the XSD runtime library under
- the BSD license and make it available at no charge to all third
- parties (section 2.a is satisfied). Later you (or someone else) may
- choose to base their proprietary application on your code since the
- BSD license does not prohibit it.
-
- This scenario falls under this FLOSS Exception.
-
-
- b) You created a library that uses the XSD generated code and the XSD
- runtime library to access information in XML instance documents. You
- did not add to the library any other useful code that uses the XSD
- generated code or the XSD runtime library (neither section 2.b nor
- 2.c is satisfied). You distribute your library, including the XSD
- generated code and the XSD runtime library under the BSD license and
- make it available at no charge to all third parties (section 2.a
- is satisfied). Later you base your proprietary application on this
- library since the BSD license does not prohibit it.
-
- This scenario does not fall under this FLOSS Exception (neither
- section 2.b nor 2.c is satisfied). You created the library for the
- sole purpose of making the XSD generated code and the XSD runtime
- library available to your proprietary application.
-
-
-2. Legal Terms and Conditions
-
-As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2 of
-the GPL you are free to distribute a verbatim copy of the Program
-as part of the Derivative Work that is formed from the Program or
-any part thereof and one or more works (each, a "FLOSS Work") as
-long as you also meet all of these conditions:
-
- a) You must cause the Derivative Work that in whole or in part
- contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof,
- to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties
- under the terms of one or more of the licenses listed in
- section 3.
-
- b) The Derivative Work should contain one or more FLOSS Work that
- can be reasonably considered as derived from the Program or some
- part thereof.
-
- c) The Derivative Work should not contain any part of the Program
- that cannot be reasonably considered as a base of one or more
- FLOSS Work.
-
-
-3. FLOSS License List
-
- a) Any license listed in the "GPL-Compatible Free Software Licenses"
- and the "GPL-Incompatible Free Software Licenses" sections of the
- License List as published by the Free Software Foundation (FSF):
-
- http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html
-
-
-4. Definitions
-
-Terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the meaning provided in
-the GPL.
-
-Derivative Work means a derivative work under copyright law.
-
-
-5. Applicability
-
-You may choose to redistribute a copy of the Program exclusively under
-the terms of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice from that
-copy of the Program.
