The LPCL, version 1.0:
Lovely Public Community License (LPCL) Version 1.0, February 20, 2009 ---- ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ -- Copyright (c) 2009 Bart Bes and Osuf Oboys This license, but not the licensed product, is licensed to "the LCPL Development Team" under LPCL. The intention of this license is to provide a means to release a product in a community without any particular user governing the project. In particular, the license should encourage the liberties taken in wiki systems, provide a means to settle disputes, and allow new users to continue a project where every developer has gone inactive. This license imposes NO restrictions on work that is released under other names than the name of this product. If such restrictions are desired, the work may be licensed under more than one license. Definitions. "This product" refers to all copyrightable work licensed under this license. A "derivative work" is any copyrightable material based on or using this product. "The community of this product" is a body of entities, usually people, which may be defined in an accompanying policy document or section as stated below. A separate document or section defining this product's community and policy may accompany this license and is treated as constituent of the referenced product as far as this license is concerned. Such a document or section may only define "the community" and how "the community" may exercise clause 3.2 of this license. In particular, changing such a document does not demand a new release of this license but it does demand a new release of the product. If no such document or clause accompanies the product, then "the community" is the empty set. Terms and Conditions. This product comes without any warranty, express or otherwise. Under no circumstances will the creators of this product be held responsible for any negative effects arising from the use of this or derivative works. Permission is granted to use this product in any fashion and for any purpose, including commercial, with or without this license, provided the following conditions are met. 1. Derivative works released under more than one license are subject to the restrictions of each such license. 2. Any derivative work advertised under the same name and the same version as this product must constitute a complete unaltered copy of this product without any additions and be accompanied by an unaltered copy of this license. 3. If a derivative work is advertised under the same name as this product but under a different version, then the following additional conditions apply. 3.1. The derivative work must clearly state that they are a derivative of this product and must be licensed under this license or a newer version of this license as approved by the community. 3.2. The community of this product has the right to demand that any derivative work, or any derivative work of a derivative in any number of steps, changes the name of the derivative work to a name other than the name of this product or else be subject to copyright infringement. The owners of the derivative work must in such an event be notified about the decision. The community has no right in choosing the new name. 3.3. Clause 3.2 may be invoked any number of times permitted by the accompanying policy. The LPCL Development Team. This section does not apply to work licensed under LPCL other than the license itself. The LPCL Development Team can NOT invoke clause 3.2 for any work other than the license and the license only.
