21 +
22 +
23 + Notice
24 +
25 +This Agreement is a Free Software license agreement that is the result
26 +of discussions between its authors in order to ensure compliance with
27 +the two main principles guiding its drafting:
28 +
29 + * firstly, compliance with the principles governing the distribution
30 + of Free Software: access to source code, broad rights granted to
31 + users,
32 + * secondly, the election of a governing law, French law, with which
33 + it is conformant, both as regards the law of torts and
34 + intellectual property law, and the protection that it offers to
35 + both authors and holders of the economic rights over software.
36 +
37 +The authors of the CeCILL (for Ce[a] C[nrs] I[nria] L[ogiciel] L[ibre])
38 +license are:
39 +
40 +Commissariat l'Energie Atomique - CEA, a public scientific, technical
41 +and industrial research establishment, having its principal place of
42 +business at 25 rue Leblanc, immeuble Le Ponant D, 75015 Paris, France.
43 +
44 +Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique - CNRS, a public scientific
45 +and technological establishment, having its principal place of business
46 +at 3 rue Michel-Ange, 75794 Paris cedex 16, France.

48 +Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique -
49 +INRIA, a public scientific and technological establishment, having its
50 +principal place of business at Domaine de Voluceau, Rocquencourt, BP
51 +105, 78153 Le Chesnay cedex, France.
52 +
53 +
54 + Preamble
55 +
56 +The purpose of this Free Software license agreement is to grant users
57 +the right to modify and redistribute the software governed by this
58 +license within the framework of an open source distribution model.
59 +
60 +The exercising of these rights is conditional upon certain obligations
61 +for users so as to preserve this status for all subsequent redistributions.
62 +
63 +In consideration of access to the source code and the rights to copy,
64 +modify and redistribute granted by the license, users are provided only
65 +with a limited warranty and the software's author, the holder of the
66 +economic rights, and the successive licensors only have limited liability.
67 +
68 +In this respect, the risks associated with loading, using, modifying
69 +and/or developing or reproducing the software by the user are brought to
70 +the user's attention, given its Free Software status, which may make it
71 +complicated to use, with the result that its use is reserved for
72 +developers and experienced professionals having in-depth computer
73 +knowledge. Users are therefore encouraged to load and test the
74 +suitability of the software as regards their requirements in conditions
75 +enabling the security of their systems and/or data to be ensured and,
76 +more generally, to use and operate it in the same conditions of
77 +security. This Agreement may be freely reproduced and published,
78 +provided it is not altered, and that no provisions are either added or
79 +removed herefrom.
80 +
81 +This Agreement may apply to any or all software for which the holder of
82 +the economic rights decides to submit the use thereof to its provisions.

379 +
380 +8.2 The Licensor's liability is limited to the commitments made under
381 +this Agreement and shall not be incurred as a result of in particular:
382 +(i) loss due the Licensee's total or partial failure to fulfill its
383 +obligations, (ii) direct or consequential loss that is suffered by the

388 +opportunity cost, any disturbance to business activities) or any or all
389 +legal proceedings instituted against the Licensee by a third party,
390 +shall constitute consequential loss and shall not provide entitlement to
391 +any or all compensation from the Licensor.
392 +
393 +
394 + Article 9 - WARRANTY
395 +
396 +9.1 The Licensee acknowledges that the scientific and technical
397 +state-of-the-art when the Software was distributed did not enable all
398 +possible uses to be tested and verified, nor for the presence of
399 +possible defects to be detected. In this respect, the Licensee's
400 +attention has been drawn to the risks associated with loading, using,
401 +modifying and/or developing and reproducing the Software which are
402 +reserved for experienced users.
403 +
404 +The Licensee shall be responsible for verifying, by any or all means,
405 +the suitability of the product for its requirements, its good working
406 +order, and for ensuring that it shall not cause damage to either persons
407 +or properties.
408 +
409 +9.2 The Licensor hereby represents, in good faith, that it is entitled
410 +to grant all the rights over the Software (including in particular the
411 +rights set forth in Article 5).
412 +
413 +9.3 The Licensee acknowledges that the Software is supplied "as is" by
414 +the Licensor without any other express or tacit warranty, other than
415 +that provided for in Article 9.2 and, in particular, without any warranty
416 +as to its commercial value, its secured, safe, innovative or relevant
417 +nature.
418 +
419 +Specifically, the Licensor does not warrant that the Software is free
420 +from any error, that it will operate without interruption, that it will
421 +be compatible with the Licensee's own equipment and software
422 +configuration, nor that it will meet the Licensee's requirements.
423 +
424 +9.4 The Licensor does not either expressly or tacitly warrant that the
425 +Software does not infringe any third party intellectual property right
426 +relating to a patent, software or any other property right. Therefore,
427 +the Licensor disclaims any and all liability towards the Licensee
428 +arising out of any or all proceedings for infringement that may be
429 +instituted in respect of the use, modification and redistribution of the
430 +Software. Nevertheless, should such proceedings be instituted against
431 +the Licensee, the Licensor shall provide it with technical and legal
432 +assistance for its defense. Such technical and legal assistance shall be
433 +decided on a case-by-case basis between the relevant Licensor and the
434 +Licensee pursuant to a memorandum of understanding. The Licensor
435 +disclaims any and all liability as regards the Licensee's use of the
436 +name of the Software. No warranty is given as regards the existence of
437 +prior rights over the name of the Software or as regards the existence
438 +of a trademark.
439 +
440 +
441 + Article 10 - TERMINATION
442 +
443 +10.1 In the event of a breach by the Licensee of its obligations
444 +hereunder, the Licensor may automatically terminate this Agreement
445 +thirty (30) days after notice has been sent to the Licensee and has
446 +remained ineffective.
447 +
448 +10.2 A Licensee whose Agreement is terminated shall no longer be
449 +authorized to use, modify or distribute the Software. However, any
450 +licenses that it may have granted prior to termination of the Agreement
451 +shall remain valid subject to their having been granted in compliance
452 +with the terms and conditions hereof.
453 +
454 +
455 + Article 11 - MISCELLANEOUS
456 +
457 +
458 + 11.1 EXCUSABLE EVENTS
459 +
460 +Neither Party shall be liable for any or all delay, or failure to

462 +majeure, an act of God or an outside cause, such as defective
463 +functioning or interruptions of the electricity or telecommunications
464 +networks, network paralysis following a virus attack, intervention by
465 +government authorities, natural disasters, water damage, earthquakes,
466 +fire, explosions, strikes and labor unrest, war, etc.
467 +
468 +11.2 Any failure by either Party, on one or more occasions, to invoke
469 +one or more of the provisions hereof, shall under no circumstances be
470 +interpreted as being a waiver by the interested Party of its right to
471 +invoke said provision(s) subsequently.
472 +
473 +11.3 The Agreement cancels and replaces any or all previous agreements,
474 +whether written or oral, between the Parties and having the same
475 +purpose, and constitutes the entirety of the agreement between said
476 +Parties concerning said purpose. No supplement or modification to the
477 +terms and conditions hereof shall be effective as between the Parties
478 +unless it is made in writing and signed by their duly authorized
479 +representatives.
480 +
481 +11.4 In the event that one or more of the provisions hereof were to
482 +conflict with a current or future applicable act or legislative text,
483 +said act or legislative text shall prevail, and the Parties shall make
484 +the necessary amendments so as to comply with said act or legislative
485 +text. All other provisions shall remain effective. Similarly, invalidity
486 +of a provision of the Agreement, for any reason whatsoever, shall not
487 +cause the Agreement as a whole to be invalid.
