+
+    
+
+   This license governs use of the accompanying software. If you use the
+   software, you accept this license. If you do not accept the license, do
+   not use the software.
+
+    
+
+1. Definitions
+
+   The terms "reproduce," "reproduction," "derivative works," and
+   "distribution" have the same meaning here as under U.S. copyright law.
+
+   A "contribution" is the original software, or any additions or changes to
+   the software.
+
+   A "contributor" is any person that distributes its contribution under this
+   license.
+
+    "Licensed patents" are a contributor's patent claims that read directly
+   on its contribution.
+
+ 
+
+2. Grant of Rights
+
+   (A) Copyright Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
+   license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants
+   you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license to
+   reproduce its contribution, prepare derivative works of its contribution,
+   and distribute its contribution or any derivative works that you create.
+
+   (B) Patent Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
+   license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor grants
+   you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under its licensed
+   patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale, import, and/or
+   otherwise dispose of its contribution in the software or derivative works
+   of the contribution in the software.
+
+ 
+
+3. Conditions and Limitations
+
+    (A) No Trademark License- This license does not grant you rights to use
+   any contributors' name, logo, or trademarks.
+
+   (B) If you bring a patent claim against any contributor over patents that
+   you claim are infringed by the software, your patent license from such
+   contributor to the software ends automatically.
+
+   (C) If you distribute any portion of the software, you must retain all
+   copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices that are present in
+   the software.
+
+   (D) If you distribute any portion of the software in source code form, you
+   may do so only under this license by including a complete copy of this
+   license with your distribution. If you distribute any portion of the
+   software in compiled or object code form, you may only do so under a
+   license that complies with this license.
+
+   (E) The software is licensed "as-is." You bear the risk of using it. The
+   contributors give no express warranties, guarantees or conditions. You may
+   have additional consumer rights under your local laws which this license
+   cannot change. To the extent permitted under your local laws, the
+   contributors exclude the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness
+   for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
+
+   (F) If you distribute the software or derivative works with programs you
+   develop, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless all
+   contributors from any claims, including attorneys' fees, related to the
+   distribution or use of your programs.  For clarity, you have no such
+   obligations to a contributor for any claims based solely on the unmodified
+   contributions of that contributor.
+
+    (G) If you make any additions or changes to the original software, you
+   may only distribute them under a new namespace.  In addition, you will
+   clearly identify your changes or additions as your own.
