| 3 | + ITU-T SOFTWARE TOOLS' GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | + This "General Public License" is published in the Annex 1 of the |
| 8 | + ITU-T Recommendation on "SOFTWARE TOOLS FOR HOMOGENITY OF RESULTS |
| 9 | + IN THE STANDARDIZATION PROCESS OF SPEECH AND AUDIO CODERS", |
| 10 | + approved in Geneva, 2000. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | + TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | + 1. This License Agreement applies to any module or other work |
| 16 | + related to the ITU-T Software Tool Library, and developed by the |
| 17 | + User's Group on Software Tools. The "Module", below, refers to any |
| 18 | + such module or work, and a "work based on the Module" means either |
| 19 | + the Module or any work containing the Module or a portion of it, |
| 20 | + either verbatim or with modifications. Each licensee is addressed |
| 21 | + as "you". |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + 2. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Module's |
| 24 | + source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you: |
| 25 | + - conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate |
| 26 | + copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; |
| 27 | + - keep intact all the notices that refer to this General Public |
| 28 | + License and to the absence of any warranty; and |
| 29 | + - give any other recipients of the Module a copy of this General |
| 30 | + Public License along with the Module. |
| 31 | + You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | + 3. You may modify your copy or copies of the Module or any portion |
| 34 | + of it, and copy and distribute such modifications under the terms |
| 35 | + of Paragraph 1 above, provided that you also do the following: |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | + o cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating |
| 38 | + that you changed the files and the date of any change; and |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | + o cause the whole of any work that you distribute or publish, |
| 41 | + that in whole or in part contains the Module or any part |
| 42 | + thereof, either with or without modifications, to be licensed |
| 43 | + at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this |
| 44 | + General Public License (except that you may choose to grant |
| 45 | + warranty protection to some or all third parties, at your |
| 46 | + option). |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | + o If the modified module normally reads commands interactively |
| 49 | + when run, you must cause it, when started running for such |
| 50 | + interactive use in the simplest and most usual way, to print or |
| 51 | + display an announcement including an appropriate copyright |
| 52 | + notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying |
| 53 | + that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute |
| 54 | + the module under these conditions, and telling the user how to |
| 55 | + view a copy of this General Public License. |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, |
| 58 | + and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange |
| 59 | + for a fee. |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | + Mere aggregation of another independent work with the Module (or |
| 62 | + its derivative) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium |
| 63 | + does not bring the other work under the scope of these terms. |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + 4. You may copy and distribute the Module (or a portion or |
| 66 | + derivative of it, under Paragraph 2) in object code or executable |
| 67 | + form under the terms of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above provided that you |
| 68 | + also do one of the following: |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | + o accompany it with the complete corresponding machine- |
| 71 | + readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms |
| 72 | + of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | + o accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three |
| 75 | + years, to give any third party free (except for a nominal |
| 76 | + charge for the cost of distribution) a complete machine- |
| 77 | + readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be |
| 78 | + distributed under the terms of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above; or, |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | + o accompany it with the information you received as to where |
| 81 | + the corresponding source code may be obtained. (This |
| 82 | + alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and |
| 83 | + only if you received the module in object code or executable |
| 84 | + form alone.) |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | + Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for |
| 87 | + making modifications to it. For an executable file, complete |
| 88 | + source code means all the source code for all modules it contains; |
| 89 | + but, as a special exception, it need not include source code for |
| 90 | + modules which are standard libraries that accompany the operating |
| 91 | + system on which the executable file runs, or for standard header |
| 92 | + files or definitions files that accompany that operating system. |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | + 5. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, distribute or transfer |
| 95 | + the Module except as expressly provided under this General Public |
| 96 | + License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, |
| 97 | + distribute or transfer the Module is void, and will automatically |
| 98 | + terminate your rights to use the Module under this License. |
| 99 | + However, parties who have received copies, or rights to use copies, |
| 100 | + from you under this General Public License will not have their |
| 101 | + licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full |
| 102 | + compliance. |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | + 6. By copying, distributing or modifying the Module (or any work |
| 105 | + based on the Module) you indicate your acceptance of this license |
| 106 | + to do so, and all its terms and conditions. |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | + 7. Each time you redistribute the Module (or any work based on the |
| 109 | + Module), the recipient automatically receives a license from the |
| 110 | + original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Module subject |
| 111 | + to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further |
| 112 | + restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted |
| 113 | + herein. |
| 114 | + |
| 115 | + 8. The ITU-T may publish revised and/or new versions of this |
| 116 | + General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will |
| 117 | + be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in |
| 118 | + detail to address new problems or concerns. |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | + Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the |
| 121 | + Module specifies a version number of the license which applies to |
| 122 | + it and "any later version", you have the option of following the |
| 123 | + terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version |
| 124 | + published by the ITU-T. If the Module does not specify a version |
| 125 | + number of the license, you may choose any version ever published by |
| 126 | + the ITU-T. |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | + 9. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Module into other free |
| 129 | + modules whose distribution conditions are different, write to the |
| 130 | + author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by |
| 131 | + the ITU-T, write to the ITU-T Secretariat; exceptions may be made |
| 132 | + for this. This decision will be guided by the two goals of |
| 133 | + preserving the free status of all derivatives of this free software |
| 134 | + and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | + NO WARRANTY |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | + 10. BECAUSE THE MODULE IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO |
| 140 | + WARRANTY FOR THE MODULE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. |
| 141 | + EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS |
| 142 | + AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE MODULE "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF |
| 143 | + ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED |
| 144 | + TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A |
| 145 | + PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND |
| 146 | + PERFORMANCE OF THE MODULE IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE MODULE PROVE |
| 147 | + DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR |
| 148 | + OR CORRECTION. |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | + 11. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN |
| 151 | + WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY |
| 152 | + MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE MODULE AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE |
| 153 | + TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR |
| 154 | + CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE |
| 155 | + THE MODULE (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING |
| 156 | + RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR |
| 157 | + A FAILURE OF THE MODULE TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER MODULES), EVEN IF |
| 158 | + SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF |
| 159 | + SUCH DAMAGES. |
| 160 | + |
| 161 | + END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS |
| 162 | + |
