License Terms for the OpenCollar Six(tm) Role Play Device | 2018-02-05
raw.githubusercontent.com/VirtualDisgrace/opencollar/master/LICENSE
--------------------------------------------------------------
Preamble and Introduction
The OpenCollar Six Role Play Device is made of many parts.
There are motions, images, models and sounds, with the
largest part being of course the software.
In a situation where one item is made of many things,
which were made by many different people, we end up with
a flurry of various authorships, permissions and ideas
what should and what should not be allowed if you want to
pass the device as a whole or in parts on to your
friends.
In a nutshell, everyone must follow these basic rules:
1. Most scripts are licensed as and must remain under the
GNU General Public License, version 2.
2. The unmodified LSL scripts oc_root, oc_lock, oc_stealth
and oc_update have the Apache 2.0 license.
3. Some contents are licensed as and must remain under
the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0
International Public License.
4. Everything else where no explicit license was applied
is covered by this License Addendum.
5. Everything coming from us which was FULL PERMS also
has to remain FULL PERMS if you wish to share it with
your friends.
--------------------------------------------------------------
By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept
and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the
License Terms for the OpenCollar Six Role Play Device. To the
extent these license terms may be interpreted as a contract,
You are granted the Licensed Rights in consideration of Your
acceptance of these terms and conditions, and the Licensor
grants You such rights in consideration of benefits the
Licensor receives from making the Licensed Scripts and
Contents available under these terms and conditions.
§ 1.) Definitions:
a. "FULL PERMS" means maintaining MODIFY, COPY, and
TRANSFER permissions in Second Life(R), OpenSimulator
and the metaverse. If these platforms should allow
more fine-grained permissions in the future, then
"FULL PERMS" will mean the most permissive possible
set of permissions allowed by the platform.
b. "License Addendum" means the verbatim text of License
Terms for the OpenCollar Six Role Play Device.
c. "Default OpenCollar" means the unaltered OpenCollar Six
Role Play Device, with unaltered scripts and contents,
and without any additions, as it is distributed by the
Licensor.
d. "Spares" means the collection of OpenCollar
scripts, plugins, programs and snippets shared by users
within the metaverse and/or published at Our
collaborative repository on GitHub
(https://github.com/VirtualDisgrace/opencollar/tree/master/src/spares).
e. "Link-set" means the arrangement of prim 3D models
which result in the final device e.g. the Default
OpenCollar or the OpenCollar Installer.
f. "Authors" means the individual authors of and/or
contributors to the specified script or content as each
described.
g. "Licensed Scripts and Contents" means the artistic
and/or technical creation to which the Licensor applied
this License Addendum.
h. "Licensed Rights" means the rights granted to You
subject to the terms and conditions of this License
Addendum, which are limited to all Copyright and
Similar Rights that apply to Your use of the Licensed
Scripts and Contents and that the Licensor has
authority to license.
i. "Licensor" means the current maintainer and
distributor of the original source code
(https://github.com/VirtualDisgrace) who is granting rights
under this License Addendum. "We" and "Our" have
corresponding meanings.
j. "You" means the individual or entity exercising the
Licensed Rights under these terms. "Your" has a
corresponding meaning.
§ 2.) Scripts:
a. Most OpenCollar scripts are licensed under the
GNU General Public License, version 2
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0) and are free to
be studied, copied, modified, and redistributed, in
respect to the following guidelines:
i. If You distribute these OpenCollar scripts, You
must leave them FULL PERMS.
ii. If You include these scripts in items that You
make, You must leave these scripts FULL PERMS.
iii. If You modify these OpenCollar scripts and
distribute the modifications, You must also
make Your modifications FULL PERMS and point
to a log of changes e.g. readme file, git log,
svn history.
iv. In all cases a verbatim copy of this License
Addendum must be included and all these
OpenCollar scripts must remain under the
GNU General Public License, version 2.
b. While We hope to encourage others to write open-source
software, custom plugins are not subject to the above
conditions if the following requirements are met:
i. The program is entirely written by You,
without basing on existing OpenCollar scripts
and without the use of snippets from existing
OpenCollar scripts, including Spares.
ii. The program compiles individually. (This is
the case for all scripts on Second Life(R).)
iii. The program communicates with the OpenCollar
scripts only through script link messages.
c. The unmodified scripts oc_root, oc_lock, oc_stealth and oc_update have
the Apache 2.0 license (http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0). On
Second Life(R) we may distribute these scripts in modified form, with
the MODIFY, COPY, and TRANSFER permissions configured at Our discretion.
i. If You modify these scripts and distribute Your modifications
You don't have to make Your modifications FULL PERM but must
follow the terms of the Apache 2.0 license.
§ 3.) Models:
a. The Default OpenCollar Link-set and its individual
elements (in which various OpenCollar scripts and
contents are placed) are a collaborative effort by
Kyrah Abattoir as original creator for the 3D model
and Wendy Starfall for the assembly and concept
design. Both parts, original 3D model and Link-set are
licensed under a Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License
(https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode).
b. The Default OpenCollar Installer and Leash Holder
Link-sets (in which various OpenCollar scripts and
contents are placed), were created by Wendy Starfall.
Both individual Link-sets are licensed under a Creative
Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Public License
(https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode).
c. The default Leash Post is a derivative work by Wendy
Starfall based on an assembly design concept by Lulu

e. RESTRICTING THE MODIFY PERMISSION ON OPENCOLLAR
SCRIPTED ITEMS THAT YOU INTEND TO DISTRIBUTE, WILL
BREAK CORE FUNCTIONALITY LIKE PLUGIN MANAGEMENT,
CUSTOMIZATION FEATURES, AND EXPANDABILITY AS WELL AS
DENY USERS THE ABILITY TO UPDATE, STUDY AND MODIFY THE
DEVICE, THEREFORE THE "NO MODIFY" PERMISSION CANNOT BE
ENDORSED BY THE LICENSOR BY NO MEANS AT ALL.
i. If You want to use the OpenCollar scripts in
items that You have made and wish to
distribute, You can restrict COPY or TRANSFER
permissions on Your items, but must retain the
permissions of the OpenCollar scripts as detailed
in § 2.
ii. If You want to recycle OpenCollar default
Link-sets, as in linking artwork to existing
OpenCollar default assemblies, You must
attribute all previous creators and include the
same license as stated in § 3a/b/c.
iii. In all cases a verbatim copy of this License
Addendum must be included, all contents must
remain under the same license terms as stated
in § 3a/b/c/d and all OpenCollar scripts must
remain under the GNU General Public License,
version 2.
