1NSS is available under the Mozilla Public License, version 2, a copy of which 2is below. 3 4Note on GPL Compatibility 5------------------------- 6 7The MPL 2, section 3.3, permits you to combine NSS with code under the GNU 8General Public License (GPL) version 2, or any later version of that 9license, to make a Larger Work, and distribute the result under the GPL. 10The only condition is that you must also make NSS, and any changes you 11have made to it, available to recipients under the terms of the MPL 2 also. 12 13Anyone who receives the combined code from you does not have to continue 14to dual licence in this way, and may, if they wish, distribute under the 15terms of either of the two licences - either the MPL alone or the GPL 16alone. However, we discourage people from distributing copies of NSS under 17the GPL alone, because it means that any improvements they make cannot be 18reincorporated into the main version of NSS. There is never a need to do 19this for license compatibility reasons. 20 21Note on LGPL Compatibility 22-------------------------- 23 24The above also applies to combining MPLed code in a single library with 25code under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) version 2.1, or 26any later version of that license. If the LGPLed code and the MPLed code 27are not in the same library, then the copyleft coverage of the two 28licences does not overlap, so no issues arise. 29 30 31Mozilla Public License Version 2.0 32================================== 33 341.

Distribution of Source Form 191 192All distribution of Covered Software in Source Code Form, including any 193Modifications that You create or to which You contribute, must be under 194the terms of this License. You must inform recipients that the Source 195Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this 196License, and how they can obtain a copy of this License. You may not 197attempt to alter or restrict the recipients' rights in the Source Code 198Form. 199 2003.2. Distribution of Executable Form 201 202If You distribute Covered Software in Executable Form then: 203 204(a) such Covered Software must also be made available in Source Code 205 Form, as described in Section 3.1, and You must inform recipients of 206 the Executable Form how they can obtain a copy of such Source Code 207 Form by reasonable means in a timely manner, at a charge no more 208 than the cost of distribution to the recipient; and 209 210(b) You may distribute such Executable Form under the terms of this 211 License, or sublicense it under different terms, provided that the 212 license for the Executable Form does not attempt to limit or alter 213 the recipients' rights in the Source Code Form under this License. 214 2153.3. Distribution of a Larger Work 216 217You may create and distribute a Larger Work under terms of Your choice, 218provided that You also comply with the requirements of this License for 219the Covered Software. If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered 220Software with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the 221Covered Software is not Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this 222License permits You to additionally distribute such Covered Software 223under the terms of such Secondary License(s), so that the recipient of 224the Larger Work may, at their option, further distribute the Covered 225Software under the terms of either this License or such Secondary 226License(s). 227 2283.4. Notices 229 230You may not remove or alter the substance of any license notices 231(including copyright notices, patent notices, disclaimers of warranty, 232or limitations of liability) contained within the Source Code Form of 233the Covered Software, except that You may alter any license notices to 234the extent required to remedy known factual inaccuracies. 235 2363.5. Application of Additional Terms 237 238You may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, 239indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Covered 240Software.

Such description must 257be placed in a text file included with all distributions of the Covered 258Software under this License. Except to the extent prohibited by statute 259or regulation, such description must be sufficiently detailed for a 260recipient of ordinary skill to be able to understand it. 261 2625. Termination 263-------------- 264 2655.1. The rights granted under this License will terminate automatically 266if You fail to comply with any of its terms. However, if You become 267compliant, then the rights granted under this License from a particular 268Contributor are reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until such 269Contributor explicitly and finally terminates Your grants, and (b) on an 270ongoing basis, if such Contributor fails to notify You of the 271non-compliance by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after You have 272come back into compliance. Moreover, Your grants from a particular 273Contributor are reinstated on an ongoing basis if such Contributor 274notifies You of the non-compliance by some reasonable means, this is the 275first time You have received notice of non-compliance with this License 276from such Contributor, and You become compliant prior to 30 days after 277Your receipt of the notice. 278 2795.2. If You initiate litigation against any entity by asserting a patent 280infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions, 281counter-claims, and cross-claims) alleging that a Contributor Version 282directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then the rights granted to 283You by any and all Contributors for the Covered Software under Section 2842.1 of this License shall terminate. 285 2865.3. In the event of termination under Sections 5.1 or 5.2 above, all 287end user license agreements (excluding distributors and resellers) which 288have been validly granted by You or Your distributors under this License 289prior to termination shall survive termination. 290 291************************************************************************ 292* * 293* 6.
