Contributor Grant. The “contributor” assigns to the “OSGeo” the worldwide copyright to the materials detailed in § II or, in countries where such an assignment is not possible,2 the “contributor” grants the “OSGeo” an exclusive license over the “contributions,” including, inter alia:
1. the right to reproduce the “contributions” in original or modified form;
2. the right to redistribute the “contributions” in original or modified form;
3. the right of making available the “contributions” in data networks, in particular via the Internet, as well as by providing downloads, in original or modified form;
4. the right to authorize third parties to make derivative works of the “contributions,” or to work on and commit changes or perform this conduct themselves. The moral or personal rights of the “contributor” remain unaffected by this agreement. The “contributor” is aware of the provisions, applicable in some countries, through which the law may provide that an employer is deemed to be the owner of the rights on materials developed by an employee in the course of his or her employment, unless the parties have agreed otherwise. The “contributor” therefore warrants, represents, and guarantees that the “contribution” covered by this grant is free of any of his or her employer’s exclusive exploitation rights. The “contributor” asserts the “contribution” contains only one or more of the following:
1. original work of the “contributor” created independently or,
2. work of the “contributor” created under a 'work for hire' status for a person, or legal entity, who has expressly granted the “contributor” the right both to make the “contribution” to the Geotools project and to grant this agreement to OSGeo over the “contribution” or,
3. work of a third party subject to the following conditions of due diligence:
1. the work was copied under a valid copyright grant or license,
2. if the copyright to the work was retained by the third party this is clearly stated in each file containing the work of the third party and,
3. if the work was acquired under license, each file containing work of the third party clearly states both the licensor and the original license terms and the terms of that license permit the eventual redistribution of the contribution as aggregated into the Geotools Project under the license terms already in use for that portion of the Geotools work. Related to the above legal assertion, the “contributor” asserts the legal terms covering the “contribution” are fully document...
