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.

12License
13
14THE WORK (AS DEFINED BELOW) IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS CREATIVE
15COMMONS PUBLIC LICENSE ("CCPL" OR "LICENSE"). THE WORK IS
16PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT AND/OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER
17THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.
18
19BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE
20BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS
21CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
22CONDITIONS.
23
241. Definitions
25
26"Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology
27or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in unmodified form, along
28with a number of other contributions, constituting separate and independent
29works in themselves, are assembled into a collective whole. A work that
30constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work (as
31defined below) for the purposes of this License.
32"Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work
33and other pre-existing works, such as a translation, musical arrangement,
34dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art
35reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which the Work may
36be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a
37Collective Work will not be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of
38this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical
39composition or sound recording, the synchronization of the Work in timed-
40relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a
41Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
42"Licensor" means the individual or entity that offers the Work under
43the terms of this License.
44"Original Author" means the individual or entity who created the
45Work.
46"Work" means the copyrightable work of authorship offered under the
47terms of this License.
48"You" means an individual or entity exercising rights under this
49License who has not previously violated the terms of this License with respect
50to the Work, or who has received express permission from the Licensor to
51exercise rights under this License despite a previous violation.
522. Fair Use Rights. Nothing in this license is intended to reduce, limit, or
53restrict any rights arising from fair use, first sale or other limitations on
54the exclusive rights of the copyright owner under copyright law or other
55applicable laws.
56
573. License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, Licensor
58hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual (for the
59duration of the applicable copyright) license to exercise the rights in the
60Work as stated below:
61
62to reproduce the Work, to incorporate the Work into one or more Collective
63Works, and to reproduce the Work as incorporated in the Collective Works;
64to distribute copies or phonorecords of, display publicly, perform publicly,
65and perform publicly by means of a digital audio transmission the Work
66including as incorporated in Collective Works;
67The above rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now known or
68hereafter devised. The above rights include the right to make such
69modifications as are technically necessary to exercise the rights in other
70media and formats, but otherwise you have no rights to make Derivative Works.
71All rights not expressly granted by Licensor are hereby reserved, including but
72not limited to the rights set forth in Sections 4(d) and 4(e).
73
744. Restrictions.The license granted in Section 3 above is expressly made
75subject to and limited by the following restrictions:
76
77You may distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
78perform the Work only under the terms of this License, and You must include a
79copy of, or the Uniform Resource Identifier for, this License with every copy
80or phonorecord of the Work You distribute, publicly display, publicly perform,
81or publicly digitally perform. You may not offer or impose any terms on the
82Work that alter or restrict the terms of this License or the recipients'
83exercise of the rights granted hereunder. You may not sublicense the Work. You
84must keep intact all notices that refer to this License and to the disclaimer
85of warranties. You may not distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or
86publicly digitally perform the Work with any technological measures that
87control access or use of the Work in a manner inconsistent with the terms of
88this License Agreement. The above applies to the Work as incorporated in a
89Collective Work, but this does not require the Collective Work apart from the
90Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this License. If You create a
91Collective Work, upon notice from any Licensor You must, to the extent
92practicable, remove from the Collective Work any credit as required by clause 4
93(c), as requested.
94You may not exercise any of the rights granted to You in Section 3 above in any
95manner that is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage
96or private monetary compensation. The exchange of the Work for other
97copyrighted works by means of digital file-sharing or otherwise shall not be
98considered to be intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or
99private monetary compensation, provided there is no payment of any monetary
100compensation in connection with the exchange of copyrighted works.
101If you distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or publicly digitally
102perform the Work, You must keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
103provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: (i) the name of
104the Original Author (or pseudonym, if applicable) if supplied, and/or (ii) if
105the Original Author and/or Licensor designate another party or parties (e.g. a
106sponsor institute, publishing entity, journal) for attribution in Licensor's
107copyright notice, terms of service or by other reasonable means, the name of
108such party or parties; the title of the Work if supplied; and to the extent
109reasonably practicable, the Uniform Resource Identifier, if any, that Licensor
110specifies to be associated with the Work, unless such URI does not refer to the
111copyright notice or licensing information for the Work. Such credit may be
112implemented in any reasonable manner; provided, however, that in the case of a
113Collective Work, at a minimum such credit will appear where any other
114comparable authorship credit appears and in a manner at least as prominent as
115such other comparable authorship credit.
116For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition:
117
118Performance Royalties Under Blanket Licenses. Licensor reserves the exclusive
119right to collect, whether individually or via a performance rights society
120(e.g. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC), royalties for the public performance or public
121digital performance (e.g. webcast) of the Work if that performance is primarily
122intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or private monetary
123compensation.
124Mechanical Rights and Statutory Royalties. Licensor reserves the exclusive
125right to collect, whether individually or via a music rights agency or
126designated agent (e.g. Harry Fox Agency), royalties for any phonorecord You
127create from the Work ("cover version") and distribute, subject to the
128compulsory license created by 17 USC Section 115 of the US Copyright Act (or
129the equivalent in other jurisdictions), if Your distribution of such cover
130version is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial advantage or
131private monetary compensation.
132Webcasting Rights and Statutory Royalties. For the avoidance of doubt, where
133the Work is a sound recording, Licensor reserves the exclusive right to
134collect, whether individually or via a performance-rights society (e.g.
135SoundExchange), royalties for the public digital performance (e.g. webcast) of
136the Work, subject to the compulsory license created by 17 USC Section 114 of
137the US Copyright Act (or the equivalent in other jurisdictions), if Your public
138digital performance is primarily intended for or directed toward commercial
139advantage or private monetary compensation.
1405. Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer
141
142UNLESS OTHERWISE MUTUALLY AGREED BY THE PARTIES IN WRITING, LICENSOR OFFERS THE
143WORK AS-IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND CONCERNING
144THE WORK, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
145LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTIBILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
146PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR THE ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, ACCURACY,
147OR THE PRESENCE OF ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT DISCOVERABLE. SOME
148JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SUCH
149EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
150
1516. Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN
152NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL,
153INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS
154LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
155POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
156
1577. Termination
158
159This License and the rights granted hereunder will terminate automatically upon
160any breach by You of the terms of this License. Individuals or entities who
161have received Collective Works from You under this License, however, will not
162have their licenses terminated provided such individuals or entities remain in
163full compliance with those licenses. Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, and 8 will survive
164any termination of this License.
165Subject to the above terms and conditions, the license granted here is
166perpetual (for the duration of the applicable copyright in the Work).
167Notwithstanding the above, Licensor reserves the right to release the Work
168under different license terms or to stop distributing the Work at any time;
169provided, however that any such election will not serve to withdraw this
170License (or any other license that has been, or is required to be, granted
171under the terms of this License), and this License will continue in full force
172and effect unless terminated as stated above.
1738. Miscellaneous
174
175Each time You distribute or publicly digitally perform the Work or a Collective
176Work, the Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Work on the same
177terms and conditions as the license granted to You under this License.
178If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable
179law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the
180terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this
181agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to
182make such provision valid and enforceable.
183No term or provision of this License shall be deemed waived and no breach
184consented to unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by
185the party to be charged with such waiver or consent.
186This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect
187to the Work licensed here. There are no understandings, agreements or
188representations with respect to the Work not specified here. Licensor shall not
189be bound by any additional provisions that may appear in any communication from
190You. This License may not be modified without the mutual written agreement of
191the Licensor and You.
192Creative Commons is not a party to this License, and makes no warranty
193whatsoever in connection with the Work. Creative Commons will not be liable to
194You or any party on any legal theory for any damages whatsoever, including
195without limitation any general, special, incidental or consequential damages
196arising in connection to this license. Notwithstanding the foregoing two (2)
197sentences, if Creative Commons has expressly identified itself as the Licensor
198hereunder, it shall have all rights and obligations of Licensor.
199
200Except for the limited purpose of indicating to the public that the Work is
201licensed under the CCPL, neither party will use the trademark "Creative
202Commons" or any related trademark or logo of Creative Commons without the
203prior written consent of Creative Commons. Any permitted use will be in
204compliance with Creative Commons' then-current trademark usage guidelines, as
