"distribution" have the same meaning here as under U.S. copyright
law.
A "contribution" is the original software, or any additions or
changes to the software.
A "contributor" is any person that distributes its contribution under
this license.
"Licensed patents" are a contributor's patent claims that read
directly on its contribution.
2. Grant of Rights
(A) Copyright Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including
the license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor
grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free copyright license
to reproduce its contribution, prepare derivative works of its
contribution, and distribute its contribution or any derivative works
that you create.
(B) Patent Grant- Subject to the terms of this license, including the
license conditions and limitations in section 3, each contributor
grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license under its
licensed patents to make, have made, use, sell, offer for sale,
import, and/or otherwise dispose of its contribution in the software
or derivative works of the contribution in the software.
3. Conditions and Limitations
(A) No Trademark License- This license does not grant you rights to
use any contributors' name, logo, or trademarks.
(B) If you bring a patent claim against any contributor over patents
that you claim are infringed by the software, your patent license
from such contributor to the software ends automatically.

all copyright, patent, trademark, and attribution notices that are
present in the software.
(D) If you distribute any portion of the software in source code
form, you may do so only under this license by including a complete
copy of this license with your distribution. If you distribute any
portion of the software in compiled or object code form, you may only
do so under a license that complies with this license.
(E) The software is licensed "as-is." You bear the risk of using
it. The contributors give no express warranties, guarantees or
conditions. You may have additional consumer rights under your local
laws which this license cannot change. To the extent permitted under
your local laws, the contributors exclude the implied warranties of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and
non-infringement.
