Blender License 1.0 (the "BL", see http://www.blender.org/BL/ ).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Copyright (C) 2002 Blender Foundation. All Rights Reserved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For teams that don't want to operate under the GPL, we're also offering
|
||
|
this "non-GPL" Blender License option. This means that you can download
|
||
|
the latest sources and tools via FTP or CVS from our site and sign an
|
||
|
additional agreement with the Blender Foundation, so you can keep your
|
||
|
source modifications confidential. Contact the Blender Foundation via
|
||
|
email at license@blender.org so we can discuss how we handle the
|
||
|
practical matters.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A signed agreement allows you to do business with proprietary code, make
|
||
|
special derived versions, sell executables, projects or services,
|
||
|
provided that:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. The BL-ed code remains copyrighted by the original owners, and cannot
|
||
|
be transferred to other parties
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. The BL-ed code cannot be published or re-distributed in any way, and
|
||
|
only be available for the internal staff that works directly on the
|
||
|
software itself. Employees of partners with which you co-develop on the
|
||
|
projects that include BL-ed code are considered 'internal staff' also.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. The BL-ed code can be used (sold, distributed) in parts or in its
|
||
|
whole only as an executable or as a compiled library/module and its
|
||
|
header files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. The usage of the name Blender or the Blender logo is not included in
|
||
|
this license. Instead 'including Blender Foundation release X' (or
|
||
|
similar) can be used, with 'X' the version number of the initial Blender
|
||
|
Foundation release which you started with.
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. Note that this BL has no authority over some of the external
|
||
|
libraries licenses which Blender links with.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additionally you get :
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. The right to use Blender Foundation source updates for a 1 year
|
||
|
period.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Support. Details to be determined by the additional agreement.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You are invited to donate your proprietary changes back to the open
|
||
|
source community after a reasonable time period. You are of course free
|
||
|
to choose not to do this.
|
||
|
|
||
|
End of BL terms and conditions.
