   Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement")
                      http://archipelproject.org/licenses/


   Thank you for your interest in Archipel Project ("Project"). In order to
   clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions from
   any person or entity, the Project must have a Contributor License Agreement
   ("CLA") on file that has been signed by each Contributor, indicating
   agreement to the license terms below. This license is for your protection as
   a Contributor as well as the protection of the Project and its users; it
   does not change your rights to use your own Contributions for any other
   purpose.

   This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to
   submit Contributions to the Project, to authorize Contributions submitted
   by its designated employees to the Project, and to grant copyright and
   patent licenses thereto.

   If you have not already done so, please complete and sign, then scan and
   email a pdf file of this Agreement to contact@archipelproject.org
   Please read this document carefully before signing and keep a copy for your
   records.

   You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present
   and future Contributions submitted to the Project. In return, the Project
   shall not use Your Contributions in a way that is contrary to the public
   benefit or inconsistent with its nonprofit status and bylaws in effect at
   the time of the Contribution. Except for the license granted herein to the
   Project and recipients of software distributed by the Project, You reserve
   all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.

   1. Definitions.

      "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
      authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with the
      Project. For legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and all
      other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
      control with that entity are considered to be a single Contributor. For
      the purposes of this definition, "control" means (i) the power, direct
      or indirect, to cause the direction or management of such entity, whether
      by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or
      more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such
      entity.

      "Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other original
      works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B, as well as any
      original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to
      an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to the Project
      for inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or
      managed by the Project (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,
      "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written
      communication sent to the Project or its representatives, including but
      not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code
      control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on
      behalf of, the Project for the purpose of discussing and improving the
      Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or
      otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."

   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions
      of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Project and to recipients of
      software distributed by the Project a perpetual, worldwide,
      non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to
      reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, publicly
      perform, sublicense, and distribute Your Contributions and such
      derivative works.

   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
      Agreement, You hereby grant to the Project and to recipients of software
      distributed by the Project a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive,
      no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as stated in this section)
      patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and
      otherwise transfer the Work, where such license applies only to those
      patent claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your
      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the
      Work to which such Contribution(s) were submitted. If any entity institutes
      patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a
      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your
      Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes
      direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
      granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or
      Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.

   4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above license.
      You represent further that each employee of the Corporation designated
      on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent written modification to that
      Schedule) is authorized to submit Contributions on behalf of the
      Corporation.

   5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation
      (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).

   6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except
      to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide support for
      free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by applicable law or
      agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS"
      BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of
      TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
      PURPOSE.

   7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You
      may submit it to the Project separately from any Contribution,
      identifying the complete details of its source and of any license or
      other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents,
      trademarks, and license agreements) of which you are personally aware,
      and conspicuously marking the work as "Submitted on behalf of a
      third-party: [named here]".

   8. It is your responsibility to notify the Project when any change is
      required to the list of designated employees authorized to submit
      Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the Corporation's
      Point of Contact with the Project.
