VolXlaser-Lizensbestimmungen:



This License applies to the laser board known as "VolXlaser", which means both the bodily board as well as the layout. The "VolXlaser", below, refers to such a board, and a "work based on the board" means either the VolXlaser or any derivative work of the VolXlaser, such as a translation or a modification. The VolXlaser is a copyrighted work whose copyright is held by WaveCom GbR Müller&Skopnik (the "Licensor").

BY USING, MODIFYING AND/OR DISTRIBUTING THE VOLxLASER (OR ANY WORK BASED ON THE VOLxLASER), YOU INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS LICENSE, AND ALL ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTING OR MODIFYING THE VOLxLASER OR WORKS BASED ON IT. NOTHING OTHER THAN THIS LICENSE GRANTS YOU PERMISSION TO USE, MODIFY AND/OR DISTRIBUTE THE VOLxLASER OR ITS DERIVATIVE WORKS. THESE ACTIONS ARE PROHIBITED BY LAW. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT USE, MODIFY AND/OR DISTRIBUTE THE VOLxLASER.

  1. Licenses.

    Licensor hereby grants you the following rights, provided that you comply with all of the restrictions set forth in this License and provided, further, that you distribute an unmodified copy of this License with the VolXslaser:

    (a) You may copy and distribute literal (i.e., verbatim) copies of the VolXslaser's layout as you receive it throughout the world, in any medium.

    (b) You may use the VolXslaser for non-commercial purposes only, meaning that the VolXslaser must not be sold commercially as a separate product, as part of a bigger product or project, or otherwise used for financial gain without a separate license. Please see Section 2, Restrictions, for more details.

    Use by individuals and non-profit organizations is always allowed. Companies are permitted to use the VolXslaser as long as it is not used for revenue-generating purposes. For example, an Internet service provider is allowed to install the VolXslaser on their systems and permit clients to use VolXslaser to connect; however, actively distributing the VolXslaser to clients for the purpose of providing added value requires separate licensing. Similarly, a consultant may freely install the VolXslaser on a client's machine for his own use, but if he/she sells the client a system that uses the VolXslaser as a component, a separate license is required. If a company includes the VolXslaser or a derivative work thereof, as part of its product, commercial licensing is required.

    (c) You may build derived versions of the VolXslaser under the restrictions stated in Section 2, Restrictions, of this license. The derived versions must be clearly marked as such and must be called by a name other than VolXslaser. VolXslaser is going to be a trademark of WaveCom GbR Mueller&Skopnik.

    All derived versions of the VolXslaser must be made freely available under the terms of this license. WaveCom GbR Mueller&Skopnik must be given the right to use the modified layout in their products without any compensation and without being required to separately name the parties whose modifications are being used.

  2. Restrictions.


  3. (a) Distribution of the VolXslaser or any work based on the VolXslaser by a commercial organization to any third party is prohibited if any payment is made in connection with such distribution, whether directly (as in payment for a copy of the VolXslaser) or indirectly (as in payment for some service related to the VolXslaser, or payment for some product or service that includes a copy of the VolXslaser "without charge", or payment for some product or service the delivery of which requires for the recipient to retrieve/download or otherwise obtain a copy of the VolXslaser; these are only examples, and not an exhaustive enumeration of prohibited activities).

    As an exception to the above rule, putting the layout of the VolXslaser on CD-ROMs containing other free software is explicitly permitted even when a modest distribution fee is charged for the CD, as long as this software is not a primary selling argument for the CD.

    (b) Activities other than copying, distribution and modification of the VolXslaser are not subject to this License and they are outside its scope. Functional use (running) of the VolXslaser is not restricted.

    (c) You must meet all of the following conditions with respect to the distribution of any work based on the VolXslaser:

    (i) All modified versions of the VolXslaser, must carry prominent notice stating that the VolXslaser has been modified. The notice must indicate who made the modifications and the date of any change;

    (ii) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the VolXslaser or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole and at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License;

    (iii) You must accompany any such work based on the VolXslaser with the complete corresponding postscript-printable layout, delivered on a medium customarily used for software interchange. The postscript-printable layout means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it;

    (iv) If you distribute any written or printed material at all with the VolXslaser or any work based on the VolXslaser, such material must include either a written copy of this License, or a prominent written indication that the VolXslaser or the work based on the VolXslaser is covered by this License and written instructions for printing and/or displaying the copy of the License on the distribution medium;

    (v) You may not change the terms in this License or impose any further restrictions on the recipient's exercise of the rights granted herein.

  4. Reservation of Rights.


  5. No rights are granted to the VolXslaser except as expressly set forth herein. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the VolXslaser except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the VolXslaser 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.

  6. Limitations.


  7. BECAUSE THE VOLxLASER IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE VOLxLASER, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE VOLxLASER "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 POSSIBLE PHYSICAL HARM, TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE VOLxLASER IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE VOLxLASER PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

    IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY USE, MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE VOLxLASER AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES OR LIMITATION OF YOUR HEALTH, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LIMITATION OF YOUR HEALTH ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE VOLxLASER (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 VOLxLASER TO OPERATE WITH SPECIAL OPERATING SYSTEMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LIMITATION OF YOUR HEALTH.

  8. General.


  9. Some of the layout details aggregated with this distribution may be licensed by third parties under different terms, so the restrictions above may not apply to such components.

    We do not imply to give any licenses to any patents or copyrights held by third parties. As far as we know, all included layout is used in accordance with the relevant license agreements and can be used and distributed freely for any purpose; see below for details.
