5   Thank you for your interest in libGDX (the "Project"). In order to clarify the
6   intellectual property license granted with Contributions from any person or entity, Mario
7   Zechner and Nathan Sweet ("Project Owners") must have a Contributor License
8   Agreement (CLA) on file that has been signed by each Contributor,
9   indicating agreement to the license terms below. This license is for your
10   protection as a Contributor as well as the protection of Project Owners and
11   the Project's users; it does not change your rights to use your own Contributions
12   for any other purpose.
13
14   This version of the Agreement allows an entity (the "Corporation") to
15   submit Contributions to the Project, to authorize Contributions
16   submitted by its designated employees to the Project, and to grant
17   copyright and patent licenses thereto.

22   23. 8010 Graz, Styria, Austria.

42   You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your
43   present and future Contributions submitted to the Project. In
44   return, the Project Owners shall not use Your Contributions in a way that

47   for the license granted herein to the Project Owners and recipients of
48   software distributed by the Project Owners, You reserve all right, title,
49   and interest in and to Your Contributions.

51   1. Definitions.
52
53      "You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity
54      authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement
55      with the Project Owners. For legal entities, the entity making a
56      Contribution and all other entities that control, are controlled by,
57      or are under common control with that entity are considered to be a
58      single Contributor. For the purposes of this definition, "control"
59      means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or
60      management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or
61      (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding
62      shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
63
64      "Contribution" shall mean the code, documentation or other original
65      works of authorship expressly identified in Schedule B, as well as
66      any original work of authorship, including
67      any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally
68      submitted by You to the Project Owners for inclusion in, or
69      documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by the
70      Project Owners (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition,
71      "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written
72      communication sent to the Project Owners or its representatives,
73      including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing
74      lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems
75      that are managed by, or on behalf of, the Project Owners for the
76      purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding
77      communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated
78      in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."
79
80   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions
81      of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Project Owners and to
82      recipients of software distributed by the Project Owners a perpetual,
83      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
84      copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
85      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute
86      Your Contributions and such derivative works.
87
88   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
89      this Agreement, You hereby grant to the Project Owners and to recipients
90      of software distributed by the Project Owners a perpetual, worldwide,
91      non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable (except as
92      stated in this section) patent license to make, have made, use,
93      offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
94      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
95      by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s)
96      alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Work to
97      which such Contribution(s) were submitted. If any entity institutes
98      patent litigation against You or any other entity (including a
99      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that your
100      Contribution, or the Work to which you have contributed, constitutes
101      direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
102      granted to that entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or
103      Work shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
104
105   4. You represent that You are legally entitled to grant the above
106      license. You represent further that each employee of the
107      Corporation designated on Schedule A below (or in a subsequent
108      written modification to that Schedule) is authorized to submit
109      Contributions on behalf of the Corporation.
110
111   5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original
112      creation (see section 7 for submissions on behalf of others).
113
114   6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions,
115      except to the extent You desire to provide support. You may provide
116      support for free, for a fee, or not at all. Unless required by
117      applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your
118      Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS
119      OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without
120      limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT,
121      MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
122
123   7. Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation,
124      You may submit it to the Project Owners separately from any
125      Contribution, identifying the complete details of its source and
126      of any license or other restriction (including, but not limited
127      to, related patents, trademarks, and license agreements) of which
128      you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the work as
129      "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
130
131   8. It is your responsibility to notify the Project Owners when any change
132      is required to the list of designated employees authorized to submit
133      Contributions on behalf of the Corporation, or to the Corporation's
134      Point of Contact with the Project Owners.
