"two clauses" refers to 2 and 3 - sorry for making you waste your time
trying figure out what I meant. The reason to move clause 7 to the
start is that then people can simply chop off everything after the
statement saying that the code is licensed under the GPL, without
removing that clause, since everything else is about contribution
policy, and the other license.
Check this for errors and please double check to make sure I did the
renumbering (of references) correctly.
DUAL LICENSING
(0) This "Work" is defined to be this document or source code, parts of
this document or source code, or derivative works of this document or
source code. Use of the Work, in whole or in part, must comply with
the licensing terms below.
(1) An implementation of this Work that is considered analogous to a
"binary distribution" is defined as any form that is not easily
readable by humans ("non-preferred"), which includes, but is not
limited to: Fixed-function IC (e.g. ASIC), fixed-function IC masks
or other fabrication intermediate step, variable-function IC (e.g.
FPGA), FPGA bitfile, compiled or translated simulation model.
(2) This Work is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) as
published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the
License, or (at your option) any later version. You have the right to
use and modify this Work. If you distribute this work in "binary" form
(see (1)), you must publish your modified form of this Work in accordance
with the GPL license.
(3) This Work is also licensed as a proprietary work, all rights
belonging to Traversal Technology. Traversal Technology may use this
Work under those terms and has the right to publish, license, and sell
this Work and derivative works as they see fit. To remove these rights,
you must remove this clause.
(4) Use of this Work without clause (3) forfeits the right to use any
trademarks owned by Traversal Technology, the Open Graphics Project, or
related organizations. This is the only circumstance where modification
of this license by a third party is permitted.
(5) Patches, modifications, changes, and extensions (collectively,
"Modifications") to this Work that are submitted to the Open Graphics
Project, the Open Graphics Mailing List, directly to Traversal Technology,
or to an agent thereof must be SIGNED by the author of said Modification
(including the words "signed off by" and the author's name), granting
Traversal Technology copyright privileges under clause (3), as well as
clause (2). Unsigned Modifications will be ignored. Your inclusion of
the signature implies that you have read and agreed with this license
and have verified that you are in compliance with applicable law.
(6) Modifications committed directly to an officially recognized source
code repository are signed implicitly. Those who have write access to
such a repository and who commit Modifications to that repository grant
rights to Traversal Technology under clause (3), as well as clause (2),
by virtue of having write access and choosing to submit Modifications.
(7) It is the responsibility of the submitter of a Modification to ensure
that they have the right to submit the Modification and that they have
all the necessary permissions (including without limitation, patents
and copyrights) from any other contributors or third parties.
(8) The submitter of a Modification assigns copyright of the Modification
to Traversal Technology. Depending on your local laws, you may be able
to assign joint copyright to Traversal Technology and yourself.
Alternatively, you may need to assign copyright exclusively to
Traversal Technology. Assigning joint copyright to Traversal
Technology and yourself is preferable because it will allow you to
make unrestricted use of your work in the future.
(9) The submitter of a Modification forfeits the right to any patents
covered by this Work and pledges to not enforce any patents covered by
this Work.
(10) At your discretion, you are encouraged to add comments to the
"Contributions" section of this Work, indicating the nature of your
Modification.
