| <p>Lesser General Public License For Linguistic Resources</p> | ||
| </title> | ||
|
|
||
| <p>Preamble</p> | ||
| <p>The licenses for most data are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, | ||
| this License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free data--to make sure the | ||
| data are free for all their users.</p> | ||
| <p>This License, the Lesser General Public License for Linguistic Resources, applies to some specially | ||
| designated linguistic resources -- typically lexicons and grammars.</p> | ||
| <p>TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</p> | ||
|
|
||
| <list> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>0.</b> | ||
| <p>This License Agreement applies to any Linguistic Resource which contains a notice placed by the | ||
| copyright holder or other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of | ||
| this Lesser General Public License for Linguistic Resources (also called "this | ||
| License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".</p> | ||
| <p>A "linguistic resource" means a collection of data about language prepared so as to be | ||
| used with application programs.</p> | ||
| <p>The "Linguistic Resource", below, refers to any such work which has been distributed | ||
| under these terms. A "work based on the Linguistic Resource" means either the | ||
| Linguistic Resource or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work | ||
| containing the Linguistic Resource or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications | ||
| and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is | ||
| included without limitation in the term "modification".)</p> | ||
| <p>"Legible form" for a linguistic resource means the preferred form of the resource for | ||
| making modifications to it.</p> | ||
| <p>Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; | ||
| they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the Linguistic Resource is not | ||
| restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work | ||
| based on the Linguistic Resource (independent of the use of the Linguistic Resource in a tool | ||
| for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the program that uses the Linguistic | ||
| Resource does.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>1.</b> | ||
| <p>You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Linguistic Resource as you receive it, in any | ||
| medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate | ||
| copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this | ||
| License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with | ||
| the Linguistic Resource.</p> | ||
| <p>You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option | ||
| offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>2.</b> | ||
| <p>You may modify your copy or copies of the Linguistic Resource or any portion of it, thus forming | ||
| a work based on the Linguistic Resource, and copy and distribute such modifications or work | ||
| under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:</p> | ||
| <list> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>a)</b> | ||
| <p>The modified work must itself be a linguistic resource.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>b)</b> | ||
| <p>You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the | ||
| files and the date of any change.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>c)</b> | ||
| <p>You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under | ||
| the terms of this License.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| </list> | ||
| <p>These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that | ||
| work are not derived from the Linguistic Resource, and can be reasonably considered | ||
| independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not | ||
| apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you | ||
| distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Linguistic | ||
| Resource, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose | ||
| permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every | ||
| part regardless of who wrote it.</p> | ||
| <p>Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work | ||
| written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the | ||
| distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Linguistic Resource.</p> | ||
| <p>In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Linguistic Resource with the | ||
| Linguistic Resource (or with a work based on the Linguistic Resource) on a volume of a | ||
| storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this | ||
| License.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>3.</b> | ||
| <p>A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Linguistic Resource, but is designed | ||
| to work with the Linguistic Resource (or an encrypted form of the Linguistic Resource) by | ||
| reading it or being compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the | ||
| Linguistic Resource". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the | ||
| Linguistic Resource, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.</p> | ||
| <p>However, combining a "work that uses the Linguistic Resource" with the Linguistic | ||
| Resource (or an encrypted form of the Linguistic Resource) creates a package that is a | ||
| derivative of the Linguistic Resource (because it contains portions of the Linguistic | ||
| Resource), rather than a "work that uses the Linguistic Resource". If the package is | ||
| a derivative of the Linguistic Resource, you may distribute the package under the terms of | ||
| Section 4. Any works containing that package also fall under Section 4.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>4.</b> | ||
| <p>As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine a "work that uses the Linguistic | ||
| Resource" with the Linguistic Resource (or an encrypted form of the Linguistic Resource) | ||
| to produce a package containing portions of the Linguistic Resource, and distribute that | ||
| package under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the package | ||
| for the customer's own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.</p> | ||
| <p>You must give prominent notice with each copy of the package that the Linguistic Resource is used | ||
| in it and that the Linguistic Resource and its use are covered by this License. You must | ||
| supply a copy of this License. If the package during execution displays copyright notices, you | ||
| must include the copyright notice for the Linguistic Resource among them, as well as a | ||
| reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these | ||
| things:</p> | ||
| <list> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>a)</b> | ||
| <p>Accompany the package with the complete corresponding machine-readable legible form of the | ||
| Linguistic Resource including whatever changes were used in the package (which must be | ||
| distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the package contains an encrypted form | ||
| of the Linguistic Resource, with the complete machine-readable "work that uses the | ||
| Linguistic Resource", as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify | ||
| the Linguistic Resource and then encrypt it to produce a modified package containing the | ||
| modified Linguistic Resource.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>b)</b> | ||
| <p>Use a suitable mechanism for combining with the Linguistic Resource. A suitable mechanism is | ||
| one that will operate properly with a modified version of the Linguistic Resource, if the | ||
| user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the | ||
| version that the package was made with.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>c)</b> | ||
| <p>Accompany the package with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same | ||
| user the materials specified in Subsection 4a, above, for a charge no more than the cost | ||
| of performing this distribution.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>d)</b> | ||
| <p>If distribution of the package is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, | ||
| offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from the same place.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>e)</b> | ||
| <p>Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already | ||
| sent this user a copy.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| </list> | ||
| <p>If the package includes an encrypted form of the Linguistic Resource, the required form of | ||
| the "work that uses the Linguistic Resource" must include any data and utility | ||
| programs needed for reproducing the package from it. However, as a special exception, the | ||
| materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in | ||
| either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of | ||
| the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself | ||
| accompanies the executable.</p> | ||
| <p>It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of proprietary | ||
| libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means | ||
| you cannot use both them and the Linguistic Resource together in a package that you | ||
| distribute.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>5.</b> | ||
| <p>You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Linguistic Resource except as | ||
| expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link | ||
| with, or distribute the Linguistic Resource is void, and will automatically terminate your | ||
| rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you | ||
| under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in | ||
| full compliance.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>6.</b> | ||
| <p>You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else | ||
| grants you permission to modify or distribute the Linguistic Resource or its derivative works. | ||
| These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying | ||
| or distributing the Linguistic Resource (or any work based on the Linguistic Resource), you | ||
| indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for | ||
| copying, distributing or modifying the Linguistic Resource or works based on it.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>7.</b> | ||
| <p>Each time you redistribute the Linguistic Resource (or any work based on the Linguistic | ||
| Resource), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, | ||
| distribute, link with or modify the Linguistic Resource subject to these terms and conditions. | ||
| You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights | ||
| granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this | ||
| License.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>8.</b> | ||
| <p>If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other | ||
| reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, | ||
| agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you | ||
| from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously | ||
| your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence | ||
| you may not distribute the Linguistic Resource at all. For example, if a patent license would | ||
| not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Linguistic Resource by all those who receive | ||
| copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and | ||
| this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Linguistic Resource.</p> | ||
| <p>If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular | ||
| circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is | ||
| intended to apply in other circumstances.</p> | ||
| <p>It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property | ||
| right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of | ||
| protecting the integrity of the free resource distribution system which is implemented by | ||
| public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of | ||
| data distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it | ||
| is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute resources through | ||
| any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.</p> | ||
| <p>This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the | ||
| rest of this License.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>9.</b> | ||
| <p>If the distribution and/or use of the Linguistic Resource is restricted in certain countries | ||
| either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the | ||
| Linguistic Resource under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution | ||
| limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among | ||
| countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if | ||
| written in the body of this License.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>10.</b> | ||
| <p>The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public | ||
| License for Linguistic Resources from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in | ||
| spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or | ||
| concerns.</p> | ||
| <p>Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Linguistic Resource specifies a | ||
| version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have | ||
| the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later | ||
| version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Linguistic Resource does not specify | ||
| a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software | ||
| Foundation.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>11.</b> | ||
| <p>If you wish to incorporate parts of the Linguistic Resource into other free programs whose | ||
| distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask for | ||
| permission.</p> | ||
| <p>NO WARRANTY</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>12.</b> | ||
| <p>BECAUSE THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE | ||
| LINGUISTIC RESOURCE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED | ||
| IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE "AS | ||
| IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED | ||
| TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE | ||
| RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE | ||
| LINGUISTIC RESOURCE PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR | ||
| CORRECTION.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li> | ||
| <b>13.</b> | ||
| <p>IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, | ||
| OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE AS PERMITTED | ||
| ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR | ||
| CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE | ||
| (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES | ||
| SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LINGUISTIC RESOURCE TO OPERATE WITH ANY | ||
| OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF | ||
| SUCH DAMAGES.</p> | ||
| </li> | ||
| </list> | ||
| <p>END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS</p> | ||
