Multifarious, Inc.
Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement")
V1, http://mult.ifario.us/ccla_1.txt
(Based on Apache Software Foundation CCLA.)
Thank you for your interest in Multifarious, Inc. (the
"Company"). In order to clarify the intellectual property license
granted with Contributions from any person or entity, the Company
must have a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) on file that has
been signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the
license terms below. This license is for your protection as a
Contributor as well as the protection of the Company and users of
its open source software offerings; it does not change your rights
to use your own Contributions for any other purpose.
This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to
submit Contributions to the Company, to authorize Contributions
submitted by its designated employees to the Company, and to grant
copyright and patent licenses thereto.
If you have not already done so, please complete and sign, then
scan and email a pdf file of this Agreement to cla@mult.ifario.us.
If necessary, send an original signed Agreement to
Multifarious, Inc., 600 N 36th St, Suite 409, Seattle, WA 98103, USA.
Please read this document carefully before signing and keep a copy for
your records.
Corporation name: ________________________________________________
Corporation address: ________________________________________________
________________________________________________
________________________________________________
Point of Contact: ________________________________________________
E-Mail: ________________________________________________
Telephone: _____________________ Fax: _____________________
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your
present and future Contributions submitted to the Company. In
return, the Company shall not use Your Contributions in a way that
is contrary to the public benefit or inconsistent the software
license in effect for the project or projects at the time of the
Contribution. Except for the license granted herein to the Company
and recipients of software distributed by the Company, You reserve
all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.
1. Definitions.
"You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement
with the Company. For legal entities, the entity making a
Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled
by, or are under common control with that entity are considered
to be a single Contributor. For the purposes of this definition,
"control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of
the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such
entity.
"Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other
original works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B,
as well as any original work of authorship, including any
modifications or additions to an existing work, that is
intentionally submitted by You to the Company for inclusion in,
or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by the
Company (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,
"submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written
communication sent to the Company or its representatives,
including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing
lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems
that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Company for the
purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding
communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Company and to
recipients of software distributed by the Company a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute
Your Contributions and such derivative works.
3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Company and to
recipients of software distributed by the Company a perpetual,
worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
(except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have
made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer
the Work, where such license applies only to those patent claims
licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s)
with the Work to which such Contribution(s) were submitted. If
any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other
entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit)
alleging that your Contribution, or the Work to which you have
contributed, constitutes direct or contributory patent
infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity
under this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall
terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above
license. You represent further that each employee of the
Corporation designated on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent
written modification to that Schedule) is authorized to submit
Contributions on behalf of the Corporation.
5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original
creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).
6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may
provide support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless
required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide
Your Contributions 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.
7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original
creation, You may submit it to the Company separately from any
Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and
of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited
to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of
which you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the
work as "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
8. It is your responsibility to notify the Company when any change
is required to the list of designated employees authorized to
submit Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the
Corporation's Point of Contact with the Company.
