common-licenses: Adding new licenses and renaming
I'm adding full common licenses to the common license directory. These licenses are taken from the SPDX project or the OSI license repository. They conform to the SPDX naming convention and will be used by the new license.bbclass license parser in order to maintain some sort of internal standard for license naming. Going forward, we should have a bigger conversation about the LICENSE field and standardizing that to conform to this naming standard.

2The Academic Free License
3v. 2.1
4
5This Academic Free License (the "License") applies to any original
6work of authorship (the "Original Work") whose owner (the
7"Licensor") has placed the following notice immediately following the
8copyright notice for the Original Work:
9
10Licensed under the Academic Free License version 2.1
11
121) Grant of Copyright License. Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide,
13royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, sublicenseable license to do the
14following:
15
16a) to reproduce the Original Work in copies;
17
18b) to prepare derivative works ("Derivative Works") based upon the
19Original Work;
20
21c) to distribute copies of the Original Work and Derivative Works to the
22public;
23
24d) to perform the Original Work publicly; and
25
26e) to display the Original Work publicly.
27
282) Grant of Patent License. Licensor hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-
29free, non-exclusive, perpetual, sublicenseable license, under patent claims
30owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in the Original Work as
31furnished by the Licensor, to make, use, sell and offer for sale the Original
32Work and Derivative Works.
33
343) Grant of Source Code License. The term "Source Code" means the
35preferred form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and all
36available documentation describing how to modify the Original Work. Licensor
37hereby agrees to provide a machine-readable copy of the Source Code of the
38Original Work along with each copy of the Original Work that Licensor
39distributes. Licensor reserves the right to satisfy this obligation by placing
40a machine-readable copy of the Source Code in an information repository
41reasonably calculated to permit inexpensive and convenient access by You for as
42long as Licensor continues to distribute the Original Work, and by publishing
43the address of that information repository in a notice immediately following
44the copyright notice that applies to the Original Work.
45
464) Exclusions From License Grant. Neither the names of Licensor, nor the names
47of any contributors to the Original Work, nor any of their trademarks or
48service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this
49Original Work without express prior written permission of the Licensor. Nothing
50in this License shall be deemed to grant any rights to trademarks, copyrights,
51patents, trade secrets or any other intellectual property of Licensor except as
52expressly stated herein. No patent license is granted to make, use, sell or
53offer to sell embodiments of any patent claims other than the licensed claims
54defined in Section 2. No right is granted to the trademarks of Licensor even if
55such marks are included in the Original Work. Nothing in this License shall be
56interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under different terms from this
57License any Original Work that Licensor otherwise would have a right to
58license.
59
605) This section intentionally omitted.
61
626) Attribution Rights. You must retain, in the Source Code of any Derivative
63Works that You create, all copyright, patent or trademark notices from the
64Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices of licensing and any
65descriptive text identified therein as an "Attribution Notice." You
66must cause the Source Code for any Derivative Works that You create to carry a
67prominent Attribution Notice reasonably calculated to inform recipients that
68You have modified the Original Work.
69
707) Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty. Licensor warrants that
71the copyright in and to the Original Work and the patent rights granted herein
72by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are sublicensed to You under the terms
73of this License with the permission of the contributor(s) of those copyrights
74and patent rights. Except as expressly stated in the immediately proceeding
75sentence, the Original Work is provided under this License on an "AS
76IS" BASIS and WITHOUT WARRANTY, either express or implied, including,
77without limitation, the warranties of NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY or
78FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE
79ORIGINAL WORK IS WITH YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential
80part of this License. No license to Original Work is granted hereunder except
81under this disclaimer.
82
838) Limitation of Liability. Under no circumstances and under no legal theory,
84whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall the
85Licensor be liable to any person for any direct, indirect, special, incidental,
86or consequential damages of any character arising as a result of this License
87or the use of the Original Work including, without limitation, damages for loss
88of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
89other commercial damages or losses. This limitation of liability shall not
90apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from Licensor's
91negligence to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation. Some
92jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
93consequential damages, so this exclusion and limitation may not apply to You.
94
959) Acceptance and Termination. If You distribute copies of the Original Work or
96a Derivative Work, You must make a reasonable effort under the circumstances to
97obtain the express assent of recipients to the terms of this License. Nothing
98else but this License (or another written agreement between Licensor and You)
99grants You permission to create Derivative Works based upon the Original Work
100or to exercise any of the rights granted in Section 1 herein, and any attempt
101to do so except under the terms of this License (or another written agreement
102between Licensor and You) is expressly prohibited by U.S. copyright law, the
103equivalent laws of other countries, and by international treaty. Therefore, by
104exercising any of the rights granted to You in Section 1 herein, You indicate
105Your acceptance of this License and all of its terms and conditions.
106
10710) Termination for Patent Action. This License shall terminate automatically
108and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to You by this License
109as of the date You commence an action, including a cross-claim or counterclaim,
110against Licensor or any licensee alleging that the Original Work infringes a
111patent. This termination provision shall not apply for an action alleging
112patent infringement by combinations of the Original Work with other software or
113hardware.
114
11511) Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law. Any action or suit relating to this
116License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein the
117Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business, and under
118the laws of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. The
119application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
120Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the Original Work outside the
121scope of this License or after its termination shall be subject to the
122requirements and penalties of the U.S. Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.,
123the equivalent laws of other countries, and international treaty. This section
124shall survive the termination of this License.
125
12612) Attorneys Fees. In any action to enforce the terms of this License or
127seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
128recover its costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
129attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, including
130any appeal of such action. This section shall survive the termination of this
131License.
132
13313) Miscellaneous. This License represents the complete agreement concerning
134the subject matter hereof. If any provision of this License is held to be
135unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to
136make it enforceable.
137
13814) Definition of "You" in This License. "You" throughout
139this License, whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a legal
140entity exercising rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this
141License. For legal entities, "You" includes any entity that controls,
142is controlled by, or is under common control with you. For purposes of this
143definition, "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to
144cause the direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
145otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding
146shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
147
14815) Right to Use. You may use the Original Work in all ways not otherwise
149restricted or conditioned by this License or by law, and Licensor promises not
150to interfere with or be responsible for such uses by You.
