After reviewing the existing approved licenses, our team thought the Reciprocal Public License 1.1 meets our needs, however our industrial affairs team wanted to make some small changes.
Could you let me know if these 4 changes are reasonable, or if we need to go through the new license approval process? Thanks, Paul Fearn ------------------------------------ Reciprocal Public License Version 1.1, November 1, 2002 ------------------------------------- 1. Does the copyright statement at top of license need to stay as "Copyright (C) 2001-2002 Technical Pursuit Inc., All Rights Reserved." or should it be changed to this? "Copyright (C) 2004 Caisis Team, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, All Rights Reserved." ------------------------------------ 2. In Preamble paragraph 2, our industrial affairs team wanted to add the "including Licensor" phrase after "third parties"? Would this require creating a new license? "This License is based on the concept of reciprocity. In exchange for being granted certain rights under the terms of this License to Licensor's Software, whose Source Code You have access to, You are required to reciprocate by providing equal access and rights to all third parties [including Licensor] to the Source Code of any Modifications, Derivative Works, and Required Components for execution of same (collectively defined as Extensions) that You Deploy by Deploying Your Extensions under the terms of this License. In this fashion the available Source Code related to the original Licensed Software is enlarged for the benefit of everyone. -------------------------------------- 3. In Preamble item c from this section "Under the terms of this License You may:," the group also wanted to add the "including Licensor" phrase. "c. Create Extensions to the Licensed Software consistent with the rights granted by this License, provided that You make the Source Code to any Extensions You Deploy available to all third parties [including Licensor], under the terms of this License, document Your Modifications clearly, and title all Extensions distinctly from the Licensed Software." -------------------------------------- 4. Are these changes to Exhibit A correct? Copyright (C) 1999-2004 P.Alli, J.Fajardo, P.Fearn, D.Kuo, K.Regan, F.Sculli ("Caisis Team"), Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, All Rights Reserved.
