|
Before we get to the text of the license, lets just review what the license
|
|
|
|
says in simple terms:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It allows you to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* freely download and use ImageMagick software, in whole or in part, for personal,
|
|
|
|
company internal, or commercial purposes;
|
|
|
|
* use ImageMagick software in packages or distributions that you create;
|
|
|
|
* link against a library under a different license;
|
|
|
|
* link code under a different license against a library under this license;
|
|
|
|
* merge code into a work under a different license;
|
|
|
|
* extend patent grants to any code using code under this license;
|
|
|
|
* and extend patent protection.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It forbids you to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* redistribute any piece of ImageMagick-originated software without proper
|
|
|
|
attribution;
|
|
|
|
* use any marks owned by ImageMagick Studio LLC in any way that might state
|
|
|
|
or imply that ImageMagick Studio LLC endorses your distribution;
|
|
|
|
* use any marks owned by ImageMagick Studio LLC in any way that might state
|
|
|
|
or imply that you created the ImageMagick software in question.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It requires you to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* include a copy of the license in any redistribution you may make that includes
|
|
|
|
ImageMagick software;
|
|
|
|
* provide clear attribution to ImageMagick Studio LLC for any distributions
|
|
|
|
that include ImageMagick software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It does not require you to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* include the source of the ImageMagick software itself, or of any modifications
|
|
|
|
you may have made to it, in any redistribution you may assemble that includes
|
|
|
|
it;
|
|
|
|
* submit changes that you make to the software back to the ImageMagick Studio
|
|
|
|
LLC (though such feedback is encouraged).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A few other clarifications include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ImageMagick is freely available without charge;
|
|
|
|
* you may include ImageMagick on a DVD as long as you comply with the terms
|
|
|
|
of the license;
|
|
|
|
* you can give modified code away for free or sell it under the terms of the
|
|
|
|
ImageMagick license or distribute the result under a different license, but
|
|
|
|
you need to acknowledge the use of the ImageMagick software;
|
|
|
|
* the license is compatible with the GPL V3.
|
|
|
|
* when exporting the ImageMagick software, review its export classification.

|
|
|
|
If You institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim
|
|
|
|
or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work or a Contribution incorporated

any patent licenses granted to You under this License for that Work shall

4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the Work or

in Source or Object form, provided that You meet the following conditions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
of this License; and
|
|
|
|
b. You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices stating that
|
|
|
|
You changed the files; and
|
|
|
|
c. You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works that You distribute,

|
|
then any Derivative Works that You distribute must include a readable copy
|
|
|
|
of the attribution notices contained within such NOTICE file, excluding those
|
|
|
|
notices that do not pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least
|
|
|
|
one of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed as part
|
|
|
|
of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or documentation, if provided
|
|
|
|
along with the Derivative Works; or, within a display generated by the Derivative
|
|
|
|
Works, if and wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
|
|
|
|
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and do not modify the
|
|
|
|
License. You may add Your own attribution notices within Derivative Works
|
|
|
|
that You distribute, alongside or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the
|
|
|
|
Work, provided that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
|
|
|
|
as modifying the License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and may provide
|
|
|
|
additional or different license terms and conditions for use, reproduction,
|
|
|
|
or distribution of Your modifications, or for any such Derivative Works as
|
|
|
|
a whole, provided Your use, reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise
|
|
|
|
complies with the conditions stated in this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise, any
|
|
|
|
Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work by You to the
|
|
|
|
Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of this License, without
|
|
|
|
any additional terms or conditions. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein
|
|
|
|
shall supersede or modify the terms of any separate license agreement you
|
|
|
|
may have executed with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade names,
|
|
|
|
trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor, except as required
|
|
|
|
for reasonable and customary use in describing the origin of the Work and
|
|
|
|
reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to
|
|
|
|
in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each Contributor provides its
|
|
|
|
Contributions) on an AS IS BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY
|
|
|
|
KIND, either express or implied, including, without limitation, any warranties
|
|
|
|
or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR
|
|
|
|
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the appropriateness
|
|
|
|
of using or redistributing the Work and assume any risks associated with Your
|
|
|
|
exercise of permissions under this License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory, whether
|
|
|
|
in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, unless required by
|
|
|
|
applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly negligent acts) or agreed to
|
|
|
|
in writing, shall any Contributor be liable to You for damages, including
|
|
|
|
any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any
|
|
|
|
character arising as a result of this License or out of the use or inability
|
|
|
|
to use the Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
|
|
|
|
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial
|
|
|
|
damages or losses), even if such Contributor has been advised of the possibility
|
|
|
|
of such damages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing the Work
|
|
|
|
or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer, and charge a fee for,
|
|
|
|
acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity, or other liability obligations
|
|
|
|
and/or rights consistent with this License. However, in accepting such obligations,
|
|
|
|
You may act only on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on
|
|
|
|
behalf of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify, defend,
|
|
|
|
and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability incurred by, or claims
|
|
|
|
asserted against, such Contributor by reason of your accepting any such warranty
|
|
|
|
or additional liability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to Apply the License to your Work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To apply the ImageMagick License to your work, attach the following boilerplate
|
|
|
|
notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]" replaced with your own identifying
|
|
|
|
information (don't include the brackets). The text should be enclosed in the
|
|
|
|
appropriate comment syntax for the file format. We also recommend that a file
|
|
|
|
or class name and description of purpose be included on the same "printed
|
|
|
|
page" as the copyright notice for easier identification within third-party
|
|
|
|
archives.
