> Jahia Ltd Exception for Free/Libre and Open Source 
> Software-only Applications Using Jahia Software (the `FLOSS
> Exception').
> _Version 0.1, 11 December 2008_
> *Exception Intent*
> We want specified Free/Libre and Open Source Software ("FLOSS")
> applications to be able to use specified GPL-licensed Jahia
> software (the "Program") despite the fact that not all FLOSS licenses
> are compatible with version 2 or above of the GNU General Public
> License (the "GPL").
> *Legal Terms and Conditions*
> As a special exception to the terms and conditions of version 2.0
> or above of the GPL:
>   1. You are free to distribute a Derivative Work that is formed
>      entirely from the Program and one or more works (each, a `FLOSS
>      Work') licensed under one or more of the licenses listed below in
>      section 1, as long as:
>        1. You obey the GPL in all respects for the Program and the
>           Derivative Work, except for identifiable sections of the
>           Derivative Work which are not derived from the Program, and
>           which can reasonably be considered independent and separate
>           works in themselves,
>        2. all identifiable sections of the Derivative Work which are
>           not derived from the Program, and which can reasonably be
>           considered independent and separate works in themselves,
>             1. are distributed subject to one of the FLOSS licenses
>                listed below, and
>             2. the object code or executable form of those sections are
>                accompanied by the complete corresponding
>                machine-readable source code for those sections on the
>                same medium and under the same FLOSS license as the
>                corresponding object code or executable forms of those
>                sections, and
>        3. any works which are aggregated with the Program or with a
>           Derivative Work on a volume of a storage or distribution
>           medium in accordance with the GPL, can reasonably be
>           considered independent and separate works in themselves which
>           are not derivatives of either the Program, a Derivative Work
>           or a FLOSS Work.
>      If the above conditions are not met, then the Program may only be
>      copied, modified, distributed or used under the terms and
>      conditions of the GPL or another valid licensing option from Jahia
>      Ltd.

>      contain a notice placed by Jahia Ltd. saying that the 
>      Program may be distributed under the terms of this FLOSS Exception. 
>      If you create or distribute a work which is a Derivative Work of 
>      both the Program and any other work licensed under the GPL, then 
>      this FLOSS Exception is not available for that work; thus, you must 
>      remove the FLOSS Exception notice from that work and comply with 
>      the GPL in all respects, including by retaining all GPL notices. 
>      You may choose to redistribute a copy of the Program exclusively 
>      under the terms of the GPL by removing the FLOSS Exception notice 
>      from that copy of the Program, provided that the copy has never been
>      modified by you or any third party.
