Appendix E - GNU General Public License
A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include within the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on the non-
exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you are a party to an
arrangement with a third party that is in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the third party based on the
extent of your activity of conveying the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties who would receive the covered work
from you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or
(b) primarily for and in connection with specific products or compilations that contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be
available to you under applicable patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others’ Freedom.
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate
you to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and
this License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed under version
3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this License will continue
to apply to the part which is the covered work, but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License, section 13, concerning
interaction through a network will apply to the combination as such.
14. Revised Versions of this License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public License
“or any later version” applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or of any later version
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the GNU General Public License, you may choose
any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU
General Public License can be used, that proxy’s public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version
for the Program.
