| LDRAW.ORG PARTS LIBRARY AGREEMENT: CAreadme.txt
| |
| | |
| 1. Introduction
| |
| | |
| The following is the README text for the LDraw Parts Library
| |
| licenced by the Creative Commons Attribution Licence 2.0 as
| |
| specified by the LDraw Contributor Agreement (CA). Parts which
| |
| fall under this agreement will contain the following line in
| |
| their headers.
| |
| | |
| 0 !LICENSE Redistributable under CCAL version 2.0 : see CAreadme.txt
| |
| | |
| However this text is not a license! It is simply a handy reference
| |
| for understanding the Legal Code (the full license), which can be
| |
| found in the CAlicense.txt file - it is a human-readable expression
| |
| of some key terms. Think of it as the user-friendly interface to
| |
| the Legal Code beneath. This text itself has no legal value and its
| |
| contents do not appear in the actual licence. For a deeper insight
| |
| please visit: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/
| |
| | |
| 2. Rights
| |
| | |
| You are free:
| |
| | |
| * to copy, distribute, display, and use the CA approved LDraw
| |
| Parts Library
| |
| * to make derivative works
| |
| * to make commercial use of the CA approved LDraw Parts Library
| |
| | |
| Under the following conditions:
| |
| | |
| 3. Attribution.
| |
| | |
| You must give the original author credit.
| |
| | |
| * For any reuse or distribution, you must make clear to others
| |
| the licence terms of this library.
| |
| * Any of these conditions can be waived if you get permission
| |
| from the copyright holder.
| |
| | |
| The LDraw Steering Committee (SteerCo) also holds an attribution
| |
| to 'The LDraw Parts Library' in such Derivative Works to be sufficient
| |
| in lieu of a full list of authors.
| |
| | |
| Your fair use and other rights are in no way affected by the above.
| |
| | |
| 4. Enforcements
| |
| | |
| The single copyright holders are the sole entity responsible for
| |
| enforcements of their copyrights. For purposes of enforcement
| |
| LDraw.org considers the following good rules of thumb to determine
| |
| if a new file is not a Derivative work. Anything else should be
| |
| considered a Derivative work and an attribution would be required.
| |
| If in doubt contact the current LDraw SteerCo.
| |
| | |
| What is not considered a Derivative work?
| |
| | |
| * Rendered images generated from the LDraw library. Rendering here
| |
| covers any conversion of a 3D model file into a 2D image.
| |
| | |
| * Model files containing references only (the source code for the
| |
| part may NOT be included in any form) to parts in the official
| |
| LDraw Parts Library at the time of their creation. Part files
| |
| which are marked as unofficial at the time of creation may be
| |
| included in full in the model file. If the sole or main purpose (as
| |
| determined by the LDraw SteerCo in consultation with the potentially
| |
| offending author and LDraw community at large) of the Model file
| |
| is to include large numbers of unofficial parts then it WILL be
| |
| considered a derivative work.
| |
| | |
| * Alternative libraries of parts which LDraw.org does not own or
| |
| enforce the copyright. If some or more of the parts in the library
| |
| are converted from the LDraw Parts Library then they must be
| |
| considered a Derivative work.
