EpiphanyAgent Repository License Notice
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
This repository is a multi-license distribution. Different parts of the
|
|
repository are available under different terms.
|
|
|
|
Nothing in this file narrows, revokes, or relabels rights already granted by
|
|
upstream licenses. In particular, nothing in this file should be read as
|
|
withdrawing any permission granted by Apache License 2.0 for Apache-covered
|
|
material.
|
|
|
|
1. Scope
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
For this file:
|
|
|
|
- `Project-Authored Material` means original software, documentation, and other
|
|
repository content authored for EpiphanyAgent, except where a file or
|
|
directory states different terms.
|
|
- `Upstream Material` means material copied or adapted from third parties and
|
|
distributed under their own licenses.
|
|
|
|
2. Upstream And Third-Party Material
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
- Other third-party material distributed with the repository keeps its own
|
|
license terms where provided.
|
|
- You must continue to comply with those upstream terms when using,
|
|
redistributing, or modifying upstream material.
|
|
|
|
3. Public License For Project-Authored Material
|
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Except where a file or directory says otherwise, Project-Authored Material is
|
|
licensed to the public under:
|
|
|
|
- PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0
|
|
|
|
The full text of that license appears in Appendix A of this file.
|
|
|
|
Required Notice: Copyright 2026 EpiphanyAgent authors and contributors.
|
|
|
|
4. Commercial License Option
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Project-Authored Material for any purpose not permitted by
|
|
PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0, you must obtain a separate written
|
|
commercial license from the applicable copyright holder or another party
|
|
expressly authorized in writing to grant that license.
|
|
|
|
Commercial rights are not granted by:
|
|
|
|
- source availability
|
|
- public access to this repository
|
|
- silence
|
|
- estoppel by implication
|
|
- the fact that the licensors are not yet organized as a corporation or LLC
|
|
|
|
A natural person can own and license copyright. Until a separate business
|
|
entity is formed and designated in writing, any commercial license for
|
|
Project-Authored Material may be offered directly by the individual copyright
|
|
holder or holders.
|
|
|
|
5. Open Source Status
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Because the public license path for Project-Authored Material is PolyForm
|
|
Noncommercial License 1.0.0 rather than an OSI-approved license, the
|
|
repository as a whole is source-available and dual-licensed. It is not an OSI
|
|
Open Source distribution as a whole.
|
|
|
|
6. Reference Structures
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
This licensing structure intentionally borrows the general dual-license shape
|
|
used by established projects such as Qt and MySQL:
|
|
|
|
- one public-facing license path
|
|
- one separate commercial license path
|
|
|
|
This repository does not claim that Qt or MySQL use the same exact public
|
|
license terms used here. Those projects are referenced only as structural
|
|
examples of dual licensing, not as the operative terms of this repository.
|
|
|
|
7. Contributions
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
External contributions are accepted only under the EpiphanyAgent Contributor
|
|
License Agreement in `CONTRIBUTOR_LICENSE_AGREEMENT.md`, or under a separate
|
|
written agreement accepted by the Project Steward.
|
|
|
|
The contributor agreement is intentionally broad. Contributors keep ownership
|
|
of their contributions, but grant the Project Steward the right to sublicense
|
|
and relicense those contributions under any license or terms the Project
|
|
Steward chooses, including commercial or proprietary terms.
|
|
|
|
The project should not accept non-trivial outside contributions unless the
|
|
contributor has agreed to that contributor agreement or an equivalent written
|
|
agreement.
|
|
|
|
Appendix A: PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
Project-Authored Material described in Section 3.

|
|
|
## Acceptance
|
|
|
|
In order to get any license under these terms, you must agree
|
|
to them as both strict obligations and conditions to all
|
|
your licenses.
|
|
|
|
## Copyright License
|
|
|
|
The licensor grants you a copyright license for the
|
|
software to do everything you might do with the software
|
|
that would otherwise infringe the licensor's copyright
|
|
in it for any permitted purpose. However, you may
|
|
only distribute the software according to Distribution
|
|
License and make changes or new works based on the software
|
|
according to Changes and New Works License.
|
|
|
|
## Distribution License
|
|
|
|
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license
|
|
to distribute copies of the software. Your license
|
|
to distribute covers distributing the software with
|
|
changes and new works permitted by Changes and New Works
|
|
License.
|
|
|
|
## Notices
|
|
|
|
You must ensure that anyone who gets a copy of any part of
|
|
the software from you also gets a copy of these terms or the
|
|
URL for them above, as well as copies of any plain-text lines
|
|
beginning with `Required Notice:` that the licensor provided
|
|
with the software. For example:
|
|
|
|
> Required Notice: Copyright Yoyodyne, Inc. (http://example.com)
|
|
|
|
## Changes and New Works License
|
|
|
|
The licensor grants you an additional copyright license to
|
|
make changes and new works based on the software for any
|
|
permitted purpose.
|
|
|
|
## Patent License
|
|
|
|
The licensor grants you a patent license for the software that
|
|
covers patent claims the licensor can license, or becomes able
|
|
to license, that you would infringe by using the software.
|
|
|
|
## Noncommercial Purposes
|
|
|
|
Any noncommercial purpose is a permitted purpose.
|
|
|
|
## Personal Uses
|
|
|
|
Personal use for research, experiment, and testing for
|
|
the benefit of public knowledge, personal study, private
|
|
entertainment, hobby projects, amateur pursuits, or religious
|
|
observance, without any anticipated commercial application,
|
|
is use for a permitted purpose.
|
|
|
|
## Noncommercial Organizations
|
|
|
|
Use by any charitable organization, educational institution,
|
|
public research organization, public safety or health
|
|
organization, environmental protection organization,
|
|
or government institution is use for a permitted purpose
|
|
regardless of the source of funding or obligations resulting
|
|
from the funding.
|
|
|
|
## Fair Use
|
|
|
|
You may have "fair use" rights for the software under the
|
|
law. These terms do not limit them.
|
|
|
|
## No Other Rights
|
|
|
|
These terms do not allow you to sublicense or transfer any of
|
|
your licenses to anyone else, or prevent the licensor from
|
|
granting licenses to anyone else. These terms do not imply
|
|
any other licenses.
|
|
|
|
## Patent Defense
|
|
|
|
If you make any written claim that the software infringes or
|
|
contributes to infringement of any patent, your patent license
|
|
for the software granted under these terms ends immediately. If
|
|
your company makes such a claim, your patent license ends
|
|
immediately for work on behalf of your company.
|
|
|
|
## Violations
|
|
|
|
The first time you are notified in writing that you have
|
|
violated any of these terms, or done anything with the software
|
|
not covered by your licenses, your licenses can nonetheless
|
|
continue if you come into full compliance with these terms,
|
|
and take practical steps to correct past violations, within
|
|
32 days of receiving notice. Otherwise, all your licenses
|
|
end immediately.
|
|
|
|
## No Liability
|
|
|
|
As far as the law allows, the software comes as is, without
|
|
any warranty or condition, and the licensor will not be liable
|
|
to you for any damages arising out of these terms or the use
|
|
or nature of the software, under any kind of legal claim.
|
|
|
|
## Definitions
|
|
|
|
The licensor is the individual or entity offering these
|
|
terms, and the software is the software the licensor makes
|
|
available under these terms.
|
|
|
|
You refers to the individual or entity agreeing to these
|
|
terms.
|
|
|
|
Your company is any legal entity, sole proprietorship,
|
|
or other kind of organization that you work for, plus all
|
|
organizations that have control over, are under the control of,
|
|
or are under common control with that organization. Control
|
|
means ownership of substantially all the assets of an entity,
|
|
or the power to direct its management and policies by vote,
|
|
contract, or otherwise. Control can be direct or indirect.
|
|
|
|
Your licenses are all the licenses granted to you for the
|
|
software under these terms.
|
|
|
|
Use means anything you do with the software requiring one
|
|
of your licenses.
