Blocky Music: licence notice

Blocky Music © 2026 QwU World · https://qwu.world · it.qwuworld@gmail.com Last updated: 1 November 2026

Together, the terms in this notice make up the Blocky Music License (on Modrinth: LicenseRef-Blocky-Music-License). It is not a separate licence text. QwU World's own code is under the MIT License (LICENSE), QwU World's own assets are under CC BY-NC 4.0 (LICENSE-ASSETS.md), and the exceptions are listed below. In the mod jar (META-INF/neoforge.mods.toml) this is written as the SPDX expression MIT AND CC-BY-NC-4.0. That expression is a one-line summary for the whole jar and cannot list exceptions, so the exceptions below still apply. The build copies this file, LICENSE and LICENSE-ASSETS.md into the jar's META-INF/ folder.

In the lists below, code paths are relative to src/main/java/ru/gora/musicbattle/ and asset paths are relative to src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/ (assets/music_battle/ inside the jar). Files described as being "in the repository root" are in the source repository only, not in the jar.

Names and logos

"QwU World", "Blocky Music" and their logos are not covered by either licence. The licences give no right to use them. Please do not use them for your own releases, or in any way that suggests QwU World made or endorsed your work, without asking us first. The Blocky Music logo is src/main/resources/blocky_music_logo.png (blocky_music_logo.png in the jar, the mod's icon in the mod list), commissioned from an artist.

Music and player content

  • Blocky Music ships no music.
  • Beatmaps, songs and other audio, cover images, and osu! and Friday Night Funkin' files that a player creates, imports or shares belong to their owners. This includes beatmaps and songs published to a world or server. QwU World does not license them and grants no rights to them.
  • A player who imports or shares a beatmap or song is responsible for having the right to use and share it.

Other products named in the mod

Blocky Music can import beatmaps from Friday Night Funkin' JSON files and osu! .osu and .osz files. These names only identify the file formats. Blocky Music is not affiliated with or endorsed by The Funkin' Crew Inc. (Friday Night Funkin') or ppy Pty Ltd (osu!). "Friday Night Funkin'" is a trademark of The Funkin' Crew Inc. (source). ppy states that the "osu!" and "ppy" branding is protected by trademark law (source). The mod also names the Iris and Oculus shader mods, only to explain a compatibility limit.

Minecraft

> NOT AN OFFICIAL MINECRAFT PRODUCT. NOT APPROVED BY OR ASSOCIATED WITH MOJANG OR MICROSOFT

(Disclaimer wording from the Minecraft Usage Guidelines.)

QwU World, not Mojang or Microsoft, is responsible for Blocky Music. Contact: it.qwuworld@gmail.com.

Not included in Blocky Music

  • playerAnimator by KosmX: a required client-side mod that players install separately (Modrinth). It has its own MIT licence, "Copyright (c) 2022 KosmX" (source). It is not bundled in the Blocky Music jar and is not covered by QwU World's licences.
  • Minecraft and NeoForge are not included. Songs are played with the Ogg Vorbis decoder that ships with Minecraft. Converting a song to Ogg Vorbis, and making the 1.5x and 2x copies a battle plays, is done by the mod's own code in audio/ and audio/codec/; the parts of it that follow other people's work are credited below.
  • No other programs. Blocky Music does not include, download or run FFmpeg or any other program to convert audio.

Credits: public domain

The files named below are under MIT (LICENSE); that licence covers QwU World's own code in them. Parts of them follow the sources listed here. Their authors state that these sources are public domain, and each author's own statement is quoted. QwU World does not claim those parts as its own work. They are credited here:

  • Reverb in client/LiveDjAudioEffects.java uses the filter structure and tuning values of Freeverb by Jezar at Dreampoint (June 2000). The Freeverb source headers say "This code is public domain" (read from a mirror; see also CCRMA).
  • Integer hash in client/ClientTrackEffects.java and client/ClientOsuManiaImporter.java: lowbias32 by Chris Wellons (source: "All information on this blog, unless otherwise noted, is hereby released into the public domain").
  • Ogg Vorbis decoder in audio/codec/VorbisDecoder.java, VorbisDecoderSetup.java, VorbisDecoderBits.java, VorbisDecoderMdct.java and OggPageReader.java: a Java port of stb_vorbis 1.22 by Sean Barrett (source, commit 1ee679ca2ef753a528db5ba6801e1067b40481b8, the last one to change the file; it is unchanged at commit 003501f6d7a8668ce8b6d875e34dd97ad0d5d5b5). stb_vorbis offers two licences ("This software is available under 2 licenses -- choose whichever you prefer"); this port relies on the second, "ALTERNATIVE B - Public Domain (www.unlicense.org): This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain." Where the port departs from stb_vorbis it follows the Vorbis I specification by the Xiph.Org Foundation, and the code says so at each place.
  • MP3 decoder in audio/codec/Mp3Decoder.java: its frame decoder is a Java port of minimp3 by Lieff (source, commit ea99364f61c14656440e8d77e9c233ccf3124633). minimp3.h says: "To the extent possible under law, the author(s) have dedicated all copyright and related and neighboring rights to this software to the public domain worldwide. This software is distributed without any warranty." (Creative Commons CC0 1.0.)

Third-party material

QwU World does not offer the material in this section under its licences.

NeoForge MDK template (MIT). build.gradle, settings.gradle, gradle.properties and src/main/resources/META-INF/neoforge.mods.toml are based on the NeoForge MDK template for Minecraft 1.21.1 (source). QwU World's MIT licence covers only QwU World's changes to these files. Of them, only META-INF/neoforge.mods.toml is in the jar. It has not been confirmed that this functional boilerplate is a "substantial portion" of the template, which is when MIT's notice condition applies; the template's notice is included here as a precaution, not as a statement that the law requires it. The template's licence (TEMPLATE_LICENSE.txt) reads:

Gradle wrapper (Apache License 2.0). gradlew, gradlew.bat, gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.jar and gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties are the Gradle wrapper, generated by Gradle: "Copyright © 2015 the original authors", Apache License 2.0 (SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 in gradlew), with the licence text in the jar's own META-INF/LICENSE. They are files of the source repository only, not of the mod jar. QwU World's MIT licence does not cover them. The Apache License 2.0 is reproduced in full below, under AAC and Apple Lossless decoding.

Nunito fonts (SIL Open Font License 1.1). font/nunito-semibold.ttf, font/nunito-bold.ttf and font/nunito-extrabold.ttf are built by tools/fonts/build-fonts.py from Nunito[wght].ttf in Google Fonts (github.com/google/fonts, ofl/nunito, SHA-256 pinned in the script). "Copyright 2014 The Nunito Project Authors (https://github.com/googlefonts/nunito)". They are Modified Versions under the OFL: the weights 600, 700 and 800 are instanced into static fonts, the character set is subset (Latin, Latin-1, Latin Extended-A, Cyrillic, punctuation), hinting and OpenType layout tables are removed, and simple outlines are added for ← ↑ → ↓ ★ ♥. Nunito has no Reserved Font Name. The fonts are distributed only inside the mod and its source repository, never sold by themselves, and remain under the OFL, whose full text is in font/license-ofl.txt next to them. That name is lowercase because Minecraft rejects a resource path containing an uppercase letter: while the file was called OFL.txt, every player's log carried Invalid path in pack: music_battle:font/OFL.txt, ignoring. Neither of QwU World's licences applies to them.

Lucide icons (ISC). The icon atlases textures/gui/workshop/icons_16.png, icons_32.png and icons_64.png are rasterised by tools/icons/build-icons.mjs from lucide-static 1.47.0 (npm, integrity pinned in the script): "Copyright (c) 2026 Lucide Icons and Contributors", ISC License. Lucide states that some of its icons derive from Feather, "Copyright (c) 2013-present Cole Bemis", MIT License; of the icons used here that applies to arrow-left, check, chevron-down, chevron-left, chevron-right, download, external-link, info, link, music, search, trash-2, triangle-alert (Feather's alert-triangle), upload and x. Both licence texts, as Lucide ships them, are in textures/gui/workshop/lucide-license.txt next to the atlases. The icons are recoloured to white and drawn tinted. Neither of QwU World's licences applies to them.

osu-framework (MIT). client/ui/Motion.java follows osu-framework 2026.914.0 by ppy Pty Ltd (source): the easing curves of DefaultEasingFunction and the scroll model and constants of ScrollContainer. QwU World's MIT licence covers only QwU World's own code in that file. osu-framework's licence (LICENCE) reads:

libvorbis (BSD-3-Clause). The rest of the mod's audio code is QwU World's own, written from the Vorbis I specification, the FLAC specification (RFC 9639), ISO/IEC 14496-3 (MPEG-4 audio, for AAC), ISO/IEC 14496-12 (the ISO base media file format, for MP4), RFC 6716 and RFC 7845 (Opus), RFC 9559 (Matroska), ISO/IEC 13818-1 (MPEG transport streams, audio/codec/MpegTsDecoder.java), ISO/IEC 11172-3 (free-format MP3), the Opus project's specifications for Opus in ISO BMFF and in MPEG-2 transport streams, the IMA's "Recommended Practices for Enhancing Digital Audio Compatibility in Multimedia Systems" (1992, IMA ADPCM) and Microsoft's "Multimedia Standards Update" (1994, Microsoft ADPCM and RIFX; audio/codec/WavAdpcm.java, WavDecoder.java) and published methods, except for the code the entries after this one name (AAC, Apple Lossless, Opus) and two exceptions here. (The default Opus channel mappings for one to eight channels in MpegTsDecoder.java are that specification's table, the same numbers as libopus's vorbis_mappings in src/opus_multistream_encoder.c, which the libopus notice below covers.) First, the lowpass frequency for each encoding quality in audio/codec/VorbisEncoderLayout.java (lowpassForQuality) uses the twelve values of _psy_lowpass_44 in libvorbis's lib/modes/psych_44.h (commit 4ba8efed8797016a85e57bc3cc7975bb31d65db5 of libvorbis) by the Xiph.Org Foundation. Second, on Minecraft's timeline VorbisDecoder.queueMinecraft ends a song by libvorbis's own rule from vorbis_synthesis_blockin (lib/block.c): the granule position is counted from the first one a packet carries, by the distance between block centres, and at the end of the stream the samples counted past the page's granule position are cut. Minecraft decodes with JOrbis, a Java port of libvorbis that keeps this rule, and the mod has to follow it to stay in step with the game; its handful of lines follow the rule statement for statement. It has not been confirmed that twelve numbers, or a rule this short that the behaviour dictates, are protected at all; libvorbis's licence is reproduced here as a precaution, as its condition for redistribution in binary form asks, not as a statement that the law requires it. QwU World's MIT licence does not cover those values and those lines. The licence (COPYING in libvorbis 1.3.7) reads:

AAC and Apple Lossless decoding (Apache License 2.0). audio/codec/AlacDecoder.java is a Java port of Apple's reference Apple Lossless decoder: codec/ALACDecoder.cpp, ag_dec.c, dp_dec.c, matrix_dec.c, ALACBitUtilities.c and aglib.h of alac (commit c38887c5c5e64a4b31108733bd79ca9b2496d987), "Copyright (c) 2011 Apple Inc. All rights reserved." audio/codec/AacPs.java is a Java port of the floating-point parametric stereo decoder in Ittiam's libxaac (decoder/ixheaacd_ps_dec_flt.c of libxaac, commit 2fbadd57bca46693b7a077bcf1513131106d960c), and the constant tables in audio/codec/AacPsData.java and AacSbrData.java come from the same commit (decoder/ixheaacd_sbr_rom.c, encoder/ixheaace_sbr_rom.c, common/ixheaac_esbr_rom.c): "Copyright (C) 2018 The Android Open Source Project" and "Copyright (C) 2023 The Android Open Source Project", "Originally developed and contributed by Ittiam Systems Pvt. Ltd, Bangalore". The fine IID Huffman codes in AacSbrData.java and the scale factor band and TNS tables in audio/codec/AacTables.java come from PacketVideo's OpenCORE AAC decoder (ps_read_data.cpp, sfb.cpp, get_tns.cpp in the Android Open Source Project's platform/frameworks/base at tag android-4.0.4_r1, media/libstagefright/codecs/aacdec), "Copyright (C) 1998-2009 PacketVideo". The Huffman codebooks in audio/codec/AacHuffmanData.java come from VisualOn's AAC encoder (src/aac_rom.c at the same tag, media/libstagefright/codecs/aacenc), "Copyright 2003-2010, VisualOn, Inc.". The rest of the AAC, SBR and MP4 code is QwU World's own, written from ISO/IEC 14496-3 and ISO/IEC 14496-12. The ported files are changed from their sources: they are Java, every read is checked against the packet, and each file says where it departs from its source and why. QwU World's MIT licence does not cover those ports and tables. The licences give no right to patents other than the contributors' own (Apache License 2.0, section 3). libxaac's NOTICE file reads:

Rounded-box distance formula. The rounded-rectangle distance in shaders/core/ui_sdf.fsh, shaders/core/ui_rounded_image.fsh and client/ui/SdfMath.java is the exact rounded-box distance function published by Inigo Quilez (article, "Rounded Box - exact"). It is a short mathematical formula, credited here and not claimed as QwU World's work; the article states no licence of its own.

Mojang. The material below is Minecraft's and is covered by the Minecraft EULA. Some entries are whole files, others are parts of files. None of it is QwU World's work or licensed by QwU World:

  • The six effect shader programs in shaders/core/ use Minecraft's own vertex shader by reference ("vertex": "minecraft:blit_screen"), and shaders/core/ui_rounded_image.json uses "vertex": "minecraft:position_tex_color" the same way. The game loads them from the player's own copy of Minecraft; they are not in the Blocky Music jar. (An earlier development build shipped a byte-identical copy of blit_screen as fx_blit.vsh; it has been removed.) shaders/core/ui_sdf.vsh is QwU World's own.
  • mixin/client/ChannelMixin.java is QwU World's code under MIT, except for one expression: the fallback buffer-size calculation, which repeats Minecraft's Channel.calculateBufferSize. That expression is not QwU World's and is not licensed by it.
  • Model boilerplate: models/item/rap_god_config_wand.json is identical to Minecraft 1.21.1's assets/minecraft/models/item/blaze_rod.json apart from a final newline, and models/item/smiley_ball_spawn_egg.json and models/item/test_rap_god_master.json have the same content as Minecraft's spawn-egg item models ("parent": "minecraft:item/template_spawn_egg"). These are standard format boilerplate and are not claimed as QwU World's work.

SampleFocus sound.

  • sounds/entity/smiley_damage.ogg is a sound from SampleFocus (its metadata says "Downloaded from Samplefocus.com"). QwU World decided on 17 September 2026 to keep it rather than replace it. Blocky Music uses it as part of the mod under the SampleFocus Standard License (https://samplefocus.com/license), which allows a sample to be used "as part of a new creative work", including games. It is not covered by QwU World's MIT or CC BY-NC 4.0 licences, and they give no right to it. Do not extract it from the mod, and do not redistribute it by itself or in substantially the same form.
  • tools/vorbis-decoder-support/smiley_damage.libvorbis.f32 is the same sound decoded to raw samples by libvorbis. It is in neither the jar nor the public source repository: QwU World keeps it only in its private working copy, where the native-vorbis-decoder check compares the mod's own decoder with it. It is the same sound in another form, so the same terms apply to it, and the tools/ row of the MIT licence does not cover it.

Not in the public source repository

The public repository at https://github.com/QwU-World/blocky-music leaves out two files on purpose: sounds/entity/smiley_damage.ogg, because the SampleFocus licence allows it inside the mod, not on its own, and tools/vorbis-decoder-support/smiley_damage.libvorbis.f32, the same sound decoded for a check. A build from that source runs without them.

Pending confirmation

Nothing is waiting for confirmation: every file in the jar and in the repository is accounted for above.

The MIT-licensed files listed in NOTICE.md are under the MIT License in LICENSE. NOTICE.md also lists what neither licence covers, and explains the name "Blocky Music License" used on Modrinth for these terms together.

What this licence covers

Paths are relative to the repository root. In the released jar the files under src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/ sit under assets/music_battle/; the repository-root copies are not in the jar.

  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/textures/
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/models/
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/blockstates/
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/blockbench/
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/player_animations/ (made from blockbench/bm_player_animation.bbmodel by tools/convert_blockbench_player_animations.mjs)
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/sounds/ and src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/sounds.json (sounds/ holds no sound of QwU World's own today: its one file is the SampleFocus sound excluded below, so the folder is in the jar but not in the public source repository)
  • microphone.bbmodel in the repository root (a copy of blockbench/microphone.bbmodel)
  • texture.png in the repository root (a copy of textures/item/microphone.png, the texture used by the root microphone.bbmodel)
  • player anims.bbmodel in the repository root (an earlier Blockbench draft of the player animations, not used by the build; its six ref_ cubes are only the standard Minecraft player shape the animations are posed against)

Generated art is covered too, and its generator is the record of who made it: src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/textures/item/music_link.png is drawn by tools/make-music-link-texture.py in this repository out of the mod's own palette, so it is QwU World's own work. Change the drawing in that script and run it again rather than painting over the PNG.

Each of these is covered except the files listed in the next section.

What this licence does not cover

Excluded: third-party sound. QwU World does not hold the rights to this file, so it cannot license it. It stays in the mod by QwU World's decision of 17 September 2026: Blocky Music uses it as part of the mod under the SampleFocus Standard License (https://samplefocus.com/license), it is excluded from both of QwU World's licences, and it must not be extracted from the mod or redistributed on its own. Details are in NOTICE.md.

  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/sounds/entity/smiley_damage.ogg (sample from SampleFocus; in the jar, not in the public source repository)

Excluded: third-party fonts and icons. They keep their own licences; details and full texts are in NOTICE.md and next to the files.

  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/font/nunito-semibold.ttf, nunito-bold.ttf, nunito-extrabold.ttf and font/license-ofl.txt: Nunito, modified, SIL Open Font License 1.1 (The Nunito Project Authors)
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/textures/gui/workshop/icons_16.png, icons_32.png, icons_64.png and lucide-license.txt: Lucide icons, ISC (Lucide Contributors), partly also MIT (Feather, Cole Bemis)

Excluded: Minecraft model boilerplate. These files are identical to Minecraft's own item model files. They are standard format boilerplate and are not claimed as QwU World's work (see NOTICE.md).

  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/models/item/rap_god_config_wand.json (same as Minecraft's models/item/blaze_rod.json)
  • src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/models/item/smiley_ball_spawn_egg.json and src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/models/item/test_rap_god_master.json (same as Minecraft's spawn-egg item models)

Pending confirmation. Nothing is waiting for confirmation.

Also not covered:

  • Code. Files under src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/shaders/ and src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/lang/, and the font definitions src/main/resources/assets/music_battle/font/ui_*.json, are among the MIT-licensed files listed in NOTICE.md (LICENSE). Some shaders use Minecraft's own vertex shaders minecraft:blit_screen and minecraft:position_tex_color by reference; those files are Mojang's, are loaded from the player's game and are not included (see NOTICE.md).
  • Minecraft's own textures. Some model files name textures from Minecraft itself, for example minecraft:block/jukebox_side and minecraft:item/blaze_rod. The game loads those textures from the player's own copy of Minecraft. They are Mojang's, are not included in Blocky Music, and are not licensed here.
  • Names and logos. "QwU World", "Blocky Music" and their logos, among them the Blocky Music logo src/main/resources/blocky_music_logo.png. CC BY-NC 4.0 itself says: "Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public License" (Section 2(b)(2)).
  • Music, beatmaps and anything players make or import. Blocky Music ships no music. Beatmaps, songs, cover images and other audio that a player creates, imports or shares belong to their owners. Nothing QwU World licenses covers them.

How to attribute

If you share these assets or something you made from them, Section 3(a) of the licence asks you to do the following. This is a summary; the legal code below is what counts.

  1. Keep the following where QwU World supplied them with the material (Section 3(a)(1)(A)): the credit to the creator (QwU World), the copyright notice, a notice that refers to the licence, a notice that refers to the licence's disclaimer of warranties (Section 5), and a link to the material where reasonably practicable.
  2. Say whether you changed the material, and keep any earlier note of changes (Section 3(a)(1)(B)).
  3. Say the material is under CC BY-NC 4.0, and include the licence text or a link to it (Section 3(a)(1)(C)).

Section 3(a)(2) lets you do this "in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context", including by linking to a page that has the required information. For example:

> Speaker texture from Blocky Music (https://qwu.world/mods/minecraft/blocky-music), © 2026 QwU World, > licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/). Recoloured by your name.

Leave out the last sentence if you did not change anything. Creative Commons' own summary is on the deed, and its guidance is in Recommended practices for attribution.

NonCommercial has the meaning in Section 1(i) of the licence: "not primarily intended for or directed towards commercial advantage or monetary compensation". For commercial use, ask QwU World first: it.qwuworld@gmail.com.

Using Creative Commons Public Licenses

Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and
conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share
original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright
and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The
following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not
exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.

     Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are
     intended for use by those authorized to give the public
     permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by
     copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are
     irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms
     and conditions of the license they choose before applying it.
     Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before
     applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the
     material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any
     material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-
     licensed material, or material used under an exception or
     limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors:
    wiki.creativecommons.org/Considerations_for_licensors

     Considerations for the public: By using one of our public
     licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the
     licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If
     the licensor's permission is not necessary for any reason--for
     example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to
     copyright--then that use is not regulated by the license. Our
     licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain
     other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of
     the licensed material may still be restricted for other
     reasons, including because others have copyright or other
     rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests,
     such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
     Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to
     respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations
     for the public:

          6(a).

       4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The
          Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in
          all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created,
          and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The
          Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or
          authority to forbid You from making technical modifications
          necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including
          technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective
          Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License,
          simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)
          (4) never produces Adapted Material.

       5. Downstream recipients.

            a. Offer from the Licensor -- Licensed Material. Every
               recipient of the Licensed Material automatically
               receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the
               Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this
               Public License.

            b. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose
               any additional or different terms or conditions on, or
               apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the
               Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the
               Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed
               Material.

       6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or
          may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You
          are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected
          with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by,
          the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as
          provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).

  b. Other rights.

       1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not
          licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity,
          privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to
          the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to
          assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited
          extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed
          Rights, but not otherwise.

       2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this
          Public License.

       3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to
          collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed
          Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society
          under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory
          licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly
          reserves any right to collect such royalties, including when
          the Licensed Material is used other than for NonCommercial
          purposes.


Section 3 -- License Conditions.

Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the
following conditions.

  a. Attribution.

       1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified
          form), You must:

            a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor
               with the Licensed Material:

                 i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed
                    Material and any others designated to receive
                    attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by
                    the Licensor (including by pseudonym if
                    designated);

                ii. a copyright notice;

               iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;

                iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of
                    warranties;

                 v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the
                    extent reasonably practicable;

            b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and
               retain an indication of any previous modifications; and

            c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this
               Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or
               hyperlink to, this Public License.

       2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any
          reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in
          which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be
          reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or
          hyperlink to a resource that includes the required
          information.

       3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the
          information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent
          reasonably practicable.

       4. If You Share Adapted Material You produce, the Adapter's
          License You apply must not prevent recipients of the Adapted
          Material from complying with this Public License.


Section 4 -- Sui Generis Database Rights.

Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that
apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:

  a. for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right
     to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial
     portion of the contents of the database for NonCommercial purposes
     only;

  b. if You include all or a substantial portion of the database
     contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database
     Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database
     Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material; and

  c. You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share
     all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not
replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed
Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.


Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.

  a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE
     EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS
     AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF
     ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS,
     IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
     WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
     PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS,
     ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT
     KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT
     ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

  b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE
     TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
     NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
     INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES,
     COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR
     USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN
     ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
     DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR
     IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

  c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided
     above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent
     possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and
     waiver of all liability.


Section 6 -- Term and Termination.

  a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and
     Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with
     this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License
     terminate automatically.

  b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under
     Section 6(a), it reinstates:

       1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided
          it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the
          violation; or

       2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.

     For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any
     right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations
     of this Public License.

  c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the
     Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop
     distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so
     will not terminate this Public License.

  d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public
     License.


Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions.

  a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different
     terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.

  b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the
     Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and
     independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.


Section 8 -- Interpretation.

  a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and
     shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose
     conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully
     be made without permission under this Public License.

  b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is
     deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the
     minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision
     cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License
     without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and
     conditions.

  c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no
     failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the
     Licensor.

  d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted
     as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities
     that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal
     processes of any jurisdiction or authority.
