00015    TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION
00016 
00017    1. Definitions.
00018 
00019       "License" shall mean the terms and conditions for use, reproduction,
00020       and distribution as defined by Sections 1 through 9 of this document.
00021 
00022       "Licensor" shall mean the copyright owner or entity authorized by
00023       the copyright owner that is granting the License.
00024 
00025       "Legal Entity" shall mean the union of the acting entity and all
00026       other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
00027       control with that entity. For the purposes of this definition,
00028       "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
00029       direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
00030       otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the
00031       outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
00032 
00033       "You" (or "Your") shall mean an individual or Legal Entity
00034       exercising permissions granted by this License.
00035 
00036       "Source" form shall mean the preferred form for making modifications,
00037       including but not limited to software source code, documentation
00038       source, and configuration files.
00039 
00040       "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
00041       transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
00042       not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
00043       and conversions to other media types.
00044 
00045       "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
00046       Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
00047       copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
00048       (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
00049 
00050       "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
00051       form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
00052       editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
00053       represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
00054       of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
00055       separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
00056       the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
00057 
00058       "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
00059       the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
00060       to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
00061       submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
00062       or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
00063       the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
00064       means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
00065       to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
00066       communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
00067       and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
00068       Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
00069       excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
00070       designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
00071 
00072       "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
00073       on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
00074       subsequently incorporated within the Work.
00075 
00076    2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
00077       this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
00078       worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
00079       copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
00080       publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
00081       Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
00082 
00083    3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
00084       this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
00085       worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
00086       (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
00087       use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
00088       where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
00089       by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
00090       Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
00091       with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
00092       institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
00093       cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
00094       or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
00095       or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
00096       granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
00097       as of the date such litigation is filed.
00098 
00099    4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
00100       Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
00101       modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
00102       meet the following conditions:
00103 
00104       (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
00105           Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
00106 
00107       (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
00108           stating that You changed the files; and
00109 
00110       (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
00111           that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
00112           attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
00113           excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
00114           the Derivative Works; and
00115 
00116       (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
00117           distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
00118           include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
00119           within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
00120           pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
00121           of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
00122           as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
00123           documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
00124           within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
00125           wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
00126           of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
00127           do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
00128           notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
00129           or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
00130           that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
00131           as modifying the License.
00132 
00133       You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
00134       may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
00135       for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
00136       for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
00137       reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
00138       the conditions stated in this License.
00139 
00140    5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
00141       any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
00142       by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
00143       this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
00144       Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
00145       the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
00146       with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
00147 
00148    6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
00149       names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
00150       except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
00151       origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
00152 
00153    7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
00154       agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
00155       Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
00156       WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
00157       implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
00158       of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
00159       PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
00160       appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
00161       risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
00162 
00163    8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
00164       whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
00165       unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
00166       negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
00167       liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
00168       incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
00169       result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
00170       Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
00171       work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
00172       other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
00173       has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
00174 
00175    9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
00176       the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
00177       and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
00178       or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
00179       License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
00180       on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
00181       of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
00182       defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
00183       incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
00184       of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
00185 
00186    END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
00187 
00188    APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
00189 
00190       To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
00191       boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
