License-wide duties

This license states no duties that apply to the work as a whole.

What applies by default

The statements above are the library's reading of this license: each is marked with the sentence it rests on, or as a library convention where the text is not explicit. The statements below are the ones the DALICC reasoner supplies for acts the license says nothing about, from the default rules of the dependency graph it reasons with. Each one names the legal source it rests on. None of it is in the record.

No default rule of that graph reaches this license: it speaks about every act the rules are about.

Further terms

These are the things the license says about itself beyond the acts it permits, forbids and requires: when it ends, how long there is to put a breach right, which law governs it, and so on. A term that comes from the DALICC vocabulary links to its definition.

Patent license ends if you sue
Yes. Not a ban on suing: a patent claim over the work ends the patent license, or the whole license, as the text provides.

Clauses

Warranty disclaimer

Covered Software is provided under this License on an “as is” basis, without warranty of any kind, either expressed, implied, or statutory, including, without limitation, warranties that the Covered Software is free of defects, merchantable, fit for a particular purpose or non-infringing. The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Covered Software is with You. Should any Covered Software prove defective in any respect, You (not any Contributor) assume the cost of any necessary servicing, repair, or correction. This disclaimer of warranty constitutes an essential part of this License. No use of any Covered Software is authorized under this License except under this disclaimer.

Limitation of liability

Under no circumstances and under no legal theory, whether tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise, shall any Contributor, or anyone who distributes Covered Software as permitted above, be liable to You for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any character including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, loss of goodwill, work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all other commercial damages or losses, even if such party shall have been informed of the possibility of such damages. This limitation of liability shall not apply to liability for death or personal injury resulting from such party’s negligence to the extent applicable law prohibits such limitation. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so this exclusion and limitation may not apply to You.

Review

Verdict
corrected during the review
Record changed since this review
yes (version 2, 2026-09-24)
Findings
8 recorded, 5 applied to the record, 0 proposed, 1 settled in a later version

The record models the Mozilla Public License 2.0 with a license-wide share-alike duty, source-code, attribution and notice duties and a prohibition on changing the license. That is the right shape for file-level copyleft. Commercial use was not permitted at all and the trademark reservation of section 2.3 was not modelled; both were added, together with the SPDX id.

7 findings

  • minor Rubric 1 spdx:licenseId applied

    Added MPL-2.0.

  • major Rubric 3 odrl:permission applied

    Section 2.1(a) grants a "world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license ... to use, reproduce, make available, modify, display, perform, distribute, and otherwise exploit its Contributions". "Otherwise exploit" with no field-of-use limit is a commercial grant, and section 3.2 contemplates charging for a distribution. The record did not permit cc:CommercialUse, which made a widely used permissive-leaning copyleft license look non-commercial. Added.

  • major Rubric 4 odrl:prohibition applied

    Section 2.3 ends: "This License does not grant any rights in the trademarks, service marks, or logos of any Contributor (except as may be necessary to comply with the notice requirements in Section 3.4)." Added the dalicc:promote prohibition that 332 other records carry for the same clause.

  • gap Rubric 8 vocabulary none

    Section 2.1(b) grants a patent license and section 5.2 terminates it on patent litigation. Section 3.3, which lets a Larger Work be distributed under other terms as long as the Covered Software files stay under this license, is the whole point of file-level copyleft and is expressed only as a blunt dalicc:ChangeLicense prohibition. Proposed: dalicc:patentGrant, dalicc:patentRetaliationTermination, dalicc:fileLevelCopyleft.

  • info Rubric 6 dalicc:WarrantyDisclaimer none

    Sections 6 and 7 are both recorded and quoted accurately.

  • major Rubric 10 record applied

    Standard-license addition of 2026-09-15, decision 9: the record was corrected against its new siblings and versioned. The review's finding on family consistency and consolidation decision 4: the record made no patent statement although section 2.1(b) grants a patent license and section 5.2 is a retaliation clause, and it hung cc:ShareAlike off the license although MPL 2.0 reciprocity is file level: 'You must inform recipients that the Source Code Form of the Covered Software is governed by the terms of this License' (3.1), while 3.2(b) lets a Larger Work go out 'under terms of Your choice'.

  • major Rubric 10 dalicc:compatibleWith applied

    Section 3.3 reads: "If the Larger Work is a combination of Covered Software with a work governed by one or more Secondary Licenses, and the Covered Software is not Incompatible With Secondary Licenses, this License permits You to additionally distribute such Covered Software under the terms of such Secondary License(s)", and Section 1.12 defines a Secondary License as "either the GNU General Public License, Version 2.0, the GNU Lesser General Public License, Version 2.1, the GNU Affero General Public License, Version 3.0, or any later versions of those licenses." dalicc:compatibleWith names GPL-2.0-only, GPL-2.0-or-later, GPL-3.0-only, GPL-3.0-or-later, LGPL-2.1-only, LGPL-2.1-or-later, LGPL-3.0-only, LGPL-3.0-or-later, AGPL-3.0, AGPL-3.0-or-later.

Settled in version 2 (1)

  • settled odrl:permission

    odrl:derive is permitted but cc:DerivativeWorks, the right to distribute the adaptation, is not, while dalicc:ModifiedWorks is. Every other copyleft record in the review group carries both.

Report an issue The review record as JSON The review checks the model against the license text. It is not legal advice.

History

This license model has 2 versions. Version 2 is the one served today; every earlier version keeps its own address, so a conclusion drawn from one of them can still be checked against it.

  1. Version 2 current2026-09-24 Giray Havur

    The content review of 2026-09-15 added 1 identification detail, 1 permission and 1 prohibition and recorded the review state. Later changes brought it in line with its family and its text in the verification of 2026-09-15, recorded which sentence of the text each statement rests on, named the license the record itself is published under and recorded the licenses a work under it may be released under.
