GRANT OF RIGHTS - - a.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, each Contributor hereby - grants Recipient a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free patent - license under Licensed Patents to make, use, sell, offer to sell, - import and otherwise transfer the Contribution of such Contributor, if - any, in source code and object code form. The patent license granted - by a Contributor shall also apply to the combination of the - Contribution of that Contributor and the Program if, at the time the - Contribution is added by the Contributor, such addition of the - Contribution causes such combination to be covered by the Licensed - Patents. The patent license granted by a Contributor shall not apply - to (i) any other combinations which include the Contribution, nor to - (ii) Contributions of other Contributors. No hardware per se is - licensed hereunder. - - c.

Each - Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by - any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights - or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses - granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility - to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any.

Each Contributor represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient - copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright - license set forth in this Agreement. - -3. REQUIREMENTS - -A.

Each Distributor must include the following in a conspicuous - location in the Program: - - Copyright (C) 2003, Lucent Technologies Inc. and others. All Rights - Reserved. - -C. In addition, each Contributor must identify itself as the -originator of its Contribution in a manner that reasonably allows -subsequent Recipients to identify the originator of the Contribution. -Also, each Contributor must agree that the additions and/or changes -are intended to be a Contribution. Once a Contribution is contributed, -it may not thereafter be revoked. - -4. COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION - -Commercial distributors of software may accept certain -responsibilities with respect to end users, business partners and the -like. While this license is intended to facilitate the commercial use -of the Program, the Distributor who includes the Program in a -commercial product offering should do so in a manner which does not -create potential liability for Contributors. Therefore, if a -Distributor includes the Program in a commercial product offering, -such Distributor ("Commercial Distributor") hereby agrees to defend -and indemnify every Contributor ("Indemnified Contributor") against -any losses, damages and costs (collectively"Losses") arising from -claims, lawsuits and other legal actions brought by a third party -against the Indemnified Contributor to the extent caused by the acts -or omissions of such Commercial Distributor in connection with its -distribution of the Program in a commercial product offering. The -obligations in this section do not apply to any claims or Losses -relating to any actual or alleged intellectual property infringement. -In order to qualify, an Indemnified Contributor must: a) promptly -notify the Commercial Distributor in writing of such claim, and b) -allow the Commercial Distributor to control, and cooperate with the -Commercial Distributor in, the defense and any related settlement -negotiations. The Indemnified Contributor may participate in any such -claim at its own expense. - -For example, a Distributor might include the Program in a commercial -product offering, Product X. That Distributor is then a Commercial -Distributor. If that Commercial Distributor then makes performance -claims, or offers warranties related to Product X, those performance -claims and warranties are such Commercial Distributor's responsibility -alone. Under this section, the Commercial Distributor would have to -defend claims against the Contributors related to those performance -claims and warranties, and if a court requires any Contributor to pay -any damages as a result, the Commercial Distributor must pay those -damages. - -5. NO WARRANTY - -EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PROGRAM IS -PROVIDED ON AN"AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY -KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY -WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY -OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY - -EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER RECIPIENT NOR -ANY CONTRIBUTORS SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, -INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING -WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF -LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING -NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OR -DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM OR THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS GRANTED -HEREUNDER, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. - -7. EXPORT CONTROL - -Recipient agrees that Recipient alone is responsible for compliance -with the United States export administration regulations (and the -export control laws and regulation of any other countries). - -8. GENERAL - -If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable under -applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of -the remainder of the terms of this Agreement, and without further -action by the parties hereto, such provision shall be reformed to the -minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable. - -If Recipient institutes patent litigation against a Contributor with -respect to a patent applicable to software (including a cross-claim or -counterclaim in a lawsuit), then any patent licenses granted by that -Contributor to such Recipient under this Agreement shall terminate as -of the date such litigation is filed. In addition, if Recipient -institutes patent litigation against any entity (including a -cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Program -itself (excluding combinations of the Program with other software or -hardware) infringes such Recipient's patent(s), then such Recipient's -rights granted under Section 2(b) shall terminate as of the date such -litigation is filed. - -All Recipient's rights under this Agreement shall terminate if it -fails to comply with any of the material terms or conditions of this -Agreement and does not cure such failure in a reasonable period of -time after becoming aware of such noncompliance. If all Recipient's -rights under this Agreement terminate, Recipient agrees to cease use -and distribution of the Program as soon as reasonably practicable. -However, Recipient's obligations under this Agreement and any licenses -granted by Recipient relating to the Program shall continue and -survive. - -LUCENT may publish new versions (including revisions) of this -Agreement from time to time. Each new version of the Agreement will be -given a distinguishing version number. The Program (including -Contributions) may always be distributed subject to the version of the -Agreement under which it was received. In addition, after a new -version of the Agreement is published, Contributor may elect to -distribute the Program (including its Contributions) under the new -version. No one other than LUCENT has the right to modify this -Agreement. Except as expressly stated in Sections 2(a) and 2(b) above, -Recipient receives no rights or licenses to the intellectual property -of any Contributor under this Agreement, whether expressly, by -implication, estoppel or otherwise. All rights in the Program not -expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved. - -This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York and -the intellectual property laws of the United States of America. No -party to this Agreement will bring a legal action under this Agreement -more than one year after the cause of action arose. Each party waives -its rights to a jury trial in any resulting litigation. - diff -r cc26fdf57bb2 lib/legal/mit --- a/lib/legal/mit Sat Mar 13 14:57:53 2021 +0100 +++ b/lib/legal/mit Tue Mar 23 08:52:02 2021 -0700 @@ -1,4 +1,5 @@ -Copyright (c) 20XX 9front +Copyright 2021 Plan 9 Foundation +Copyright (c) 20XX 9front authors Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal
