  31  MySQL Eventum Software Contributor Agreement (to include in your email
  32  to eventum-contributions@mysql.com):
  33  
  34  This MySQL Eventum Software Contributor Agreement is between you and
  35  MySQL AB ("MySQL").  In this Agreement, "You" shall mean the owner of
  36  the Contribution, as defined below, including any individual or any
  37  corporation or entity which has authorized the person accepting this
  38  Agreement to act on its behalf.  The purpose of this Agreement is to set
  39  forth the terms and conditions under which MySQL may use software that
  40  you wish to contribute to MySQL for the purpose of use within one or
  41  more MySQL software development projects, including but not limited to
  42  MySQL's Eventum project.
  43  
  44  By accepting this Agreement, You hereby agree to the following terms and
  45  conditions:
  46  
  47  1.  As used in this Agreement, the term "Contribution" shall mean any
  48  software, including source code and/or object code, documentation, or
  49  modifications to the foregoing, which You concurrently or subsequently
  50  make available or submit to MySQL in any form.  Contributions shall not
  51  include any software or documentation which has been explicitly marked
  52  to indicate that it is not a contribution to MySQL.
  53  
  54  2.  You hereby grant to MySQL, its successors, and assigns, the
  55  non-exclusive, transferable, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free right
  56  to use, modify, copy, sell, transmit, and distribute in any form the
  57  Contributions under the terms of any version of the GNU General Public
  58  License, or any version of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
  59  Without limitation, this grant is made with respect to any copyright,
  60  patent, or other intellectual property or moral rights You may have in
  61  or to the Contributions.  MySQL shall have no duty whatsoever to render
  62  an accounting to You for any use of a Contribution.
  63  
  64  3.  You represent that You are legally able and entitled under the laws
  65  of your jurisdiction to enter into this Agreement and to grant MySQL the
  66  rights described in this Agreement.
  67  
  68  4.  You represent that You are the original author, creator, or inventor
  69  of the Contributions.  If Your employer(s) have rights to intellectual
  70  property that You create, You represent that have received permission to
  71  provide each Contribution on behalf of that employer, or that Your
  72  employer has waived such rights for the Contributions.
  73  
  74  5.  You warrant that, to the best of your knowledge, the Contributions
  75  do not violate the legal or intellectual property rights of any other
  76  party.  Except as described in this Agreement, the Contributions are
  77  licensed on an "AS IS" basis and You do not make any warranty or
  78  representation of any kind with regard to the Contributions.
  79  
  80  6.  You agree to notify MySQL if any circumstance should arise which
  81  would make any of the foregoing representations inaccurate in any respect.
  82  
  83  7.  Except as granted to MySQL in this Agreement, You retain all right,
  84  title, and interest in and to the Contributions.
  85  
  86  8.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Delaware and
  87  applicable U.S. Federal law, without application of choice of law rules.
