+Transitive Grace Period Public Licence ("TGPPL") v. 1.0
+=======================================================
+
+This Transitive Grace Period Public Licence (the "License") applies to any
+original work of authorship (the "Original Work") whose owner (the
+"Licensor") has placed the following licensing notice adjacent to the
+copyright notice for the Original Work:
+
+ *Licensed under the Transitive Grace Period Public Licence version 1.0*
+
+1.  **Grant of Copyright License.** Licensor grants You a worldwide,
+    royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable license, for the duration of
+    the copyright, to do the following:
+
+    a. to reproduce the Original Work in copies, either alone or as part of a
+       collective work;
+
+    b. to translate, adapt, alter, transform, modify, or arrange the Original
+       Work, thereby creating derivative works ("Derivative Works") based upon
+       the Original Work;
+
+    c. to distribute or communicate copies of the Original Work and Derivative
+       Works to the public, with the proviso that copies of Original Work or
+       Derivative Works that You distribute or communicate shall be licensed
+       under this Transitive Grace Period Public Licence no later than 12
+       months after You distributed or communicated said copies;
+
+    d. to perform the Original Work publicly; and
+
+    e. to display the Original Work publicly.
+
+2.  **Grant of Patent License.** Licensor grants You a worldwide,
+    royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable license, under patent claims
+    owned or controlled by the Licensor that are embodied in the Original
+    Work as furnished by the Licensor, for the duration of the patents, to
+    make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and import the Original Work
+    and Derivative Works.
+
+3.  **Grant of Source Code License.** The term "Source Code" means the
+    preferred form of the Original Work for making modifications to it and
+    all available documentation describing how to modify the Original
+    Work. Licensor agrees to provide a machine-readable copy of the Source
+    Code of the Original Work along with each copy of the Original Work that
+    Licensor distributes. Licensor reserves the right to satisfy this
+    obligation by placing a machine-readable copy of the Source Code in an
+    information repository reasonably calculated to permit inexpensive and
+    convenient access by You for as long as Licensor continues to distribute
+    the Original Work.
+
+4.  **Exclusions From License Grant.** Neither the names of Licensor, nor the
+    names of any contributors to the Original Work, nor any of their
+    trademarks or service marks, may be used to endorse or promote products
+    derived from this Original Work without express prior permission of the
+    Licensor. Except as expressly stated herein, nothing in this License
+    grants any license to Licensor's trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade
+    secrets or any other intellectual property. No patent license is granted
+    to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, or import embodiments of
+    any patent claims other than the licensed claims defined in Section 2. No
+    license is granted to the trademarks of Licensor even if such marks are
+    included in the Original Work. Nothing in this License shall be
+    interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under terms different
+    from this License any Original Work that Licensor otherwise would have a
+    right to license.
+
+5.  **External Deployment.** The term "External Deployment" means the use,
+    distribution, or communication of the Original Work or Derivative Works
+    in any way such that the Original Work or Derivative Works may be used by
+    anyone other than You, whether those works are distributed or
+    communicated to those persons or made available as an application
+    intended for use over a network. As an express condition for the grants
+    of license hereunder, You must treat any External Deployment by You of
+    the Original Work or a Derivative Work as a distribution under section
+    1(c).
+
+6.  **Attribution Rights.** You must retain, in the Source Code of any
+    Derivative Works that You create, all copyright, patent, or trademark
+    notices from the Source Code of the Original Work, as well as any notices
+    of licensing and any descriptive text identified therein as an
+    "Attribution Notice." You must cause the Source Code for any Derivative
+    Works that You create to carry a prominent Attribution Notice reasonably
+    calculated to inform recipients that You have modified the Original Work.
+
+7.  **Warranty of Provenance and Disclaimer of Warranty.** Licensor warrants
+    that the copyright in and to the Original Work and the patent rights
+    granted herein by Licensor are owned by the Licensor or are sublicensed
+    to You under the terms of this License with the permission of the
+    contributor(s) of those copyrights and patent rights. Except as expressly
+    stated in the immediately preceding sentence, the Original Work is
+    provided under this License on an "AS IS" BASIS and WITHOUT WARRANTY,
+    either express or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties
+    of non-infringement, merchantability or fitness for a particular
+    purpose. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY OF THE ORIGINAL WORK IS WITH
+    YOU. This DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY constitutes an essential part of this
+    License. No license to the Original Work is granted by this License
+    except under this disclaimer.
+
+8.  **Limitation of Liability.** Under no circumstances and under no legal
+    theory, whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+    shall the Licensor be liable to anyone for any indirect, special,
+    incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a result
+    of this License or the use of the Original Work including, without
+    limitation, damages for loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure
+    or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses. This
+    limitation of liability shall not apply to the extent applicable law
+    prohibits such limitation.
+
+9.  **Acceptance and Termination.** If, at any time, You expressly assented
+    to this License, that assent indicates your clear and irrevocable
+    acceptance of this License and all of its terms and conditions. If You
+    distribute or communicate copies of the Original Work or a Derivative
+    Work, You must make a reasonable effort under the circumstances to obtain
+    the express assent of recipients to the terms of this License. This
+    License conditions your rights to undertake the activities listed in
+    Section 1, including your right to create Derivative Works based upon the
+    Original Work, and doing so without honoring these terms and conditions
+    is prohibited by copyright law and international treaty. Nothing in this
+    License is intended to affect copyright exceptions and limitations
+    (including 'fair use' or 'fair dealing'). This License shall terminate
+    immediately and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to
+    You by this License upon your failure to honor the conditions in Section
+    1(c).
+
+10. **Termination for Patent Action.** This License shall terminate
+    automatically and You may no longer exercise any of the rights granted to
+    You by this License as of the date You commence an action, including a
+    cross-claim or counterclaim, against Licensor or any licensee alleging
+    that the Original Work infringes a patent. This termination provision
+    shall not apply for an action alleging patent infringement by
+    combinations of the Original Work with other software or hardware.
+
+11. **Jurisdiction, Venue and Governing Law.** Any action or suit relating to
+    this License may be brought only in the courts of a jurisdiction wherein
+    the Licensor resides or in which Licensor conducts its primary business,
+    and under the laws of that jurisdiction excluding its conflict-of-law
+    provisions. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts
+    for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any use of the
+    Original Work outside the scope of this License or after its termination
+    shall be subject to the requirements and penalties of copyright or patent
+    law in the appropriate jurisdiction. This section shall survive the
+    termination of this License.
+
+12. **Attorneys' Fees.** In any action to enforce the terms of this License
+    or seeking damages relating thereto, the prevailing party shall be
+    entitled to recover its costs and expenses, including, without
+    limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection
+    with such action, including any appeal of such action. This section shall
+    survive the termination of this License.
+
+13. **Miscellaneous.** If any provision of this License is held to be
+    unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent
+    necessary to make it enforceable.
+
+14. **Definition of "You" in This License.** "You" throughout this License,
+    whether in upper or lower case, means an individual or a legal entity
+    exercising rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this
+    License. For legal entities, "You" includes any entity that controls, is
+    controlled by, or is under common control with you. For 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.
+
+15. **Right to Use.** You may use the Original Work in all ways not otherwise
+    restricted or conditioned by this License or by law, and Licensor
+    promises not to interfere with or be responsible for such uses by You.
+
+16. **Modification of This License.** This License is Copyright © 2007 Zooko
+    Wilcox-O'Hearn. Permission is granted to copy, distribute, or communicate
+    this License without modification. Nothing in this License permits You to
+    modify this License as applied to the Original Work or to Derivative
+    Works. However, You may modify the text of this License and copy,
+    distribute or communicate your modified version (the "Modified License")
+    and apply it to other original works of authorship subject to the
+    following conditions: (i) You may not indicate in any way that your
+    Modified License is the "Transitive Grace Period Public Licence" or
+    "TGPPL" and you may not use those names in the name of your Modified
+    License; and (ii) You must replace the notice specified in the first
+    paragraph above with the notice "Licensed under <insert your license name
+    here>" or with a notice of your own that is not confusingly similar to
+    the notice in this License.
