| NSS is available under the Mozilla Public License, version 2, a copy of which |
| is below. |
| |
| Note on GPL Compatibility |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| The MPL 2, section 3.3, permits you to combine NSS with code under the GNU |
| General Public License (GPL) version 2, or any later version of that |
| license, to make a Larger Work, and distribute the result under the GPL. |
| The only condition is that you must also make NSS, and any changes you |
| have made to it, available to recipients under the terms of the MPL 2 also. |
| |
| Anyone who receives the combined code from you does not have to continue |
| to dual licence in this way, and may, if they wish, distribute under the |
| terms of either of the two licences - either the MPL alone or the GPL |
| alone. However, we discourage people from distributing copies of NSS under |
| the GPL alone, because it means that any improvements they make cannot be |
| reincorporated into the main version of NSS. There is never a need to do |
| this for license compatibility reasons. |
| |
| Note on LGPL Compatibility |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| The above also applies to combining MPLed code in a single library with |
| code under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) version 2.1, or |
| any later version of that license. If the LGPLed code and the MPLed code |
| are not in the same library, then the copyleft coverage of the two |
| licences does not overlap, so no issues arise. |

| Each Contributor hereby grants You a world-wide, royalty-free, |
| non-exclusive license: |
| |
| (a) under intellectual property rights (other than patent or trademark) |
| Licensable by such Contributor to use, reproduce, make available, |

| |
| 2.2. Effective Date |
| |
| The licenses granted in Section 2.1 with respect to any Contribution |
| become effective for each Contribution on the date the Contributor first |
| distributes such Contribution. |
| |
| 2.3. Limitations on Grant Scope |
| |
| The licenses granted in this Section 2 are the only rights granted under |
| this License. No additional rights or licenses will be implied from the |
| distribution or licensing of Covered Software under this License. |
| Notwithstanding Section 2.1(b) above, no patent license is granted by a |
| Contributor: |
| |
| (a) for any code that a Contributor has removed from Covered Software; |
| or |
| |
| (b) for infringements caused by: (i) Your and any other third party's |
| modifications of Covered Software, or (ii) the combination of its |
| Contributions with other software (except as part of its Contributor |
| Version); or |
| |
| (c) under Patent Claims infringed by Covered Software in the absence of |
| its Contributions. |
| |
| This License does not grant any rights in the trademarks, service marks, |
| or logos of any Contributor (except as may be necessary to comply with |
| the notice requirements in Section 3.4). |
| |
| 2.4. Subsequent Licenses |
| |
| No Contributor makes additional grants as a result of Your choice to |
| distribute the Covered Software under a subsequent version of this |
| License (see Section 10.2) or under the terms of a Secondary License (if |
| permitted under the terms of Section 3.3). |
| |
| 2.5. Representation |
| |
| Each Contributor represents that the Contributor believes its |
| Contributions are its original creation(s) or it has sufficient rights |
| to grant the rights to its Contributions conveyed by this License. |
| |
| 2.6. Fair Use |
| |
| This License is not intended to limit any rights You have under |
| applicable copyright doctrines of fair use, fair dealing, or other |
| equivalents. |
| |
| 2.7. Conditions |
| |
| Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 are conditions of the licenses granted |
| in Section 2.1. |
| |
| 3. Responsibilities |
| ------------------- |
| |
| 3.1. Distribution of Source Form |
| |
| All distribution of Covered Software in Source Code Form, including any |
| Modifications that You create or to which You contribute, must be under |
| the terms of this License. You must inform recipients that the Source |
| Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this |
| License, and how they can obtain a copy of this License. You may not |
| attempt to alter or restrict the recipients' rights in the Source Code |
| Form. |
| |
| 3.2. Distribution of Executable Form |
| |
| If You distribute Covered Software in Executable Form then: |
| |
| (a) such Covered Software must also be made available in Source Code |
| Form, as described in Section 3.1, and You must inform recipients of |
| the Executable Form how they can obtain a copy of such Source Code |
| Form by reasonable means in a timely manner, at a charge no more |
| than the cost of distribution to the recipient; and |
| |
| (b) You may distribute such Executable Form under the terms of this |
| License, or sublicense it under different terms, provided that the |
| license for the Executable Form does not attempt to limit or alter |
| the recipients' rights in the Source Code Form under this License. |
| |
| 3.3. Distribution of a Larger Work |
| |
| You may create and distribute a Larger Work under terms of Your choice, |
| provided that You also comply with the requirements of this License for |
| the Covered Software. If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered |
| Software with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the |
| Covered Software is not Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this |
| License permits You to additionally distribute such Covered Software |
| under the terms of such Secondary License(s), so that the recipient of |
| the Larger Work may, at their option, further distribute the Covered |
| Software under the terms of either this License or such Secondary |
| License(s). |
| |
| 3.4. Notices |
| |
| You may not remove or alter the substance of any license notices |
| (including copyright notices, patent notices, disclaimers of warranty, |
| or limitations of liability) contained within the Source Code Form of |
| the Covered Software, except that You may alter any license notices to |
| the extent required to remedy known factual inaccuracies. |
| |
| 3.5. Application of Additional Terms |
| |
| You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, |
| indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered |
| Software. However, You may do so only on Your own behalf, and not on |
| behalf of any Contributor. You must make it absolutely clear that any |
| such warranty, support, indemnity, or liability obligation is offered by |
| You alone, and You hereby agree to indemnify every Contributor for any |
| liability incurred by such Contributor as a result of warranty, support, |
| indemnity or liability terms You offer. You may include additional |
| disclaimers of warranty and limitations of liability specific to any |
| jurisdiction. |
| |
| 4. Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation |
| --------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| If it is impossible for You to comply with any of the terms of this |
| License with respect to some or all of the Covered Software due to |
| statute, judicial order, or regulation then You must: (a) comply with |
| the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible; and (b) |
| describe the limitations and the code they affect. Such description must |
| be placed in a text file included with all distributions of the Covered |
| Software under this License. Except to the extent prohibited by statute |
| or regulation, such description must be sufficiently detailed for a |
| recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it. |
| |
| 5. Termination |
| -------------- |
| |
| 5.1. The rights granted under this License will terminate automatically |
| if You fail to comply with any of its terms. However, if You become |
| compliant, then the rights granted under this License from a particular |
| Contributor are reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until such |
| Contributor explicitly and finally terminates Your grants, and (b) on an |
| ongoing basis, if such Contributor fails to notify You of the |
| non-compliance by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after You have |
| come back into compliance. Moreover, Your grants from a particular |
| Contributor are reinstated on an ongoing basis if such Contributor |
| notifies You of the non-compliance by some reasonable means, this is the |
| first time You have received notice of non-compliance with this License |
| from such Contributor, and You become compliant prior to 30 days after |
| Your receipt of the notice. |
| |
| 5.2. If You initiate litigation against any entity by asserting a patent |
| infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions, |
| counter-claims, and cross-claims) alleging that a Contributor Version |
| directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then the rights granted to |
| You by any and all Contributors for the Covered Software under Section |
| 2.1 of this License shall terminate. |
| |
| 5.3. In the event of termination under Sections 5.1 or 5.2 above, all |
| end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which |
| have been validly granted by You or Your distributors under this License |
| prior to termination shall survive termination. |
| |

| * 6. Disclaimer of Warranty * |
| * ------------------------- * |
| * * |
| * Covered Software is provided under this License on an "as is" * |
| * basis, without warranty of any kind, either expressed, implied, or * |
| * statutory, including, without limitation, warranties that the * |
| * Covered Software is free of defects, merchantable, fit for a * |
| * particular purpose or non-infringing. The entire risk as to the * |
| * quality and performance of the Covered Software is with You. * |
| * Should any Covered Software prove defective in any respect, You * |
| * (not any Contributor) assume the cost of any necessary servicing, * |
| * repair, or correction. This disclaimer of warranty constitutes an * |
| * essential part of this License. No use of any Covered Software is * |
| * authorized under this License except under this disclaimer. * |
| * * |
| ************************************************************************ |
| |
| ************************************************************************ |
| * * |
| * 7. Limitation of Liability * |
| * -------------------------- * |
| * * |
| * Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether tort * |
| * (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall any * |
| * Contributor, or anyone who distributes Covered Software as * |
| * permitted above, be liable to You for any direct, indirect, * |
| * special, incidental, or consequential damages of any character * |
| * including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, loss of * |
| * goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any * |
| * and all other commercial damages or losses, even if such party * |
| * shall have been informed of the possibility of such damages. This * |
| * limitation of liability shall not apply to liability for death or * |
| * personal injury resulting from such party's negligence to the * |
| * extent applicable law prohibits such limitation. Some * |
| * jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of * |
| * incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion and * |
| * limitation may not apply to You. * |
| * * |
| ************************************************************************ |
| |
| 8. Litigation |
| ------------- |
| |
| Any litigation relating to this License may be brought only in the |
| courts of a jurisdiction where the defendant maintains its principal |
| place of business and such litigation shall be governed by laws of that |
| jurisdiction, without reference to its conflict-of-law provisions. |
| Nothing in this Section shall prevent a party's ability to bring |
| cross-claims or counter-claims. |
| |
| 9. Miscellaneous |
| ---------------- |
| |
| This License represents the complete agreement concerning the subject |
| matter hereof. 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. Any law or regulation which provides |
| that the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter |
| shall not be used to construe this License against a Contributor. |
| |
| 10. Versions of the License |
| --------------------------- |
| |
| 10.1. New Versions |
| |
| Mozilla Foundation is the license steward. Except as provided in Section |
| 10.3, no one other than the license steward has the right to modify or |
| publish new versions of this License. Each version will be given a |
| distinguishing version number. |
| |
| 10.2. Effect of New Versions |
| |
| You may distribute the Covered Software under the terms of the version |
| of the License under which You originally received the Covered Software, |
| or under the terms of any subsequent version published by the license |
| steward. |
| |
| 10.3. Modified Versions |
| |
| If you create software not governed by this License, and you want to |
| create a new license for such software, you may create and use a |
| modified version of this License if you rename the license and remove |
| any references to the name of the license steward (except to note that |
| such modified license differs from this License). |
| |
| 10.4. Distributing Source Code Form that is Incompatible With Secondary |
| Licenses |
| |
| If You choose to distribute Source Code Form that is Incompatible With |
| Secondary Licenses under the terms of this version of the License, the |
| notice described in Exhibit B of this License must be attached. |
| |
| Exhibit A - Source Code Form License Notice |
