    Copyright Assignment Agreement
 

	
 
    By checking the box below and submitting this form, you (``Assignor'') enter
 
    into this Agreement between Assignor and the Software Freedom Conservancy,
 
    Inc., a New York nonprofit corporation located in Brooklyn, New York, which
 
    has received recognition of exemption from federal income tax under Section
 
    501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and classification as a public
 
    charity (the ``Conservancy'').
 

	
 
    For good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
 
    acknowledged, Assignor hereby transfers to the Conservancy their entire
 
    right, title, and interest in the copyright in the works identified by the
 
    repositories, email addresses, names, and time periods listed above (the
 
    “Works”). To the extent that the Assignor is assigning future rights, and
 
    the rights in future works do not vest in Conservancy upon the Works’
 
    creation, Assignor agrees to assign, immediately following the creation, all
 
    rights to Conservancy and irrevocably appoint Conservancy as their
 
    attorney-in-fact to take any necessary steps to perfect Conservancy’s rights
 
    under this Agreement.
 

	
 
    The Conservancy will use its discretion for any relicensing of the Works
 
    under other free and open source software licenses. Decisions about
 
    relicensing made by Conservancy will apply to its assignees and successors.
 
    If you have any questions about Conservancy's relicensing philosophy, and
 
    what limitations it may have because it is a public charity, please contact
 
    us at copyright-assignment@sfconservancy.org .
 

	
 
    The Conservancy hereby grants Assignor a royalty-free non-exclusive license
 
    to use the interests assigned hereunder for any purpose. The Conservancy's
 
    rights shall otherwise continue unchanged.
 

	
 
    Assignor hereby grants to the Conservancy and to recipients of software
 
    distributed by the Conservancy a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive,
 
    no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable patent license to make, have made,
 
    use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Works, where
 
    such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by Assignor
 
    that are necessarily infringed by the Works alone or by combination of
 
    Assignor's contributions with the Works to which such contributions were
 
    submitted.
 

	
 
    Assignor hereby represents and warrants that the email addresses and user
 
    identities identified above are unique to the Assignor, that no one but the
 
    Assignor has made contributions using the email addresses and user
 
    identities identified above, that the Assignor is the sole copyright holder
 
    for the Works assigned hereunder, and that the Assignor has the right and
 
    power to enter into this contract. Assignor hereby indemnifies and holds
 
    harmless the Conservancy, its officers, employees, agents, successors, and
 
    assigns against any and all claims, actions or damages (including reasonable
 
    attorney's fees) asserted by or paid to any party on account of a breach or
 
    alleged breach of the foregoing warranty. Assignor makes no other express or
 
    implied warranty (including without limitation any warranty of
 
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE).""")
