Ltd. ACN 105 891 870 ("POV"), a company incorporated in the -state of Victoria, Australia, for the product known as the "Persistence of -Vision Raytracer(tm)", also referred to herein as "POV-Ray(tm)". In these -terms "Licensed Version" means the version of POV-Ray identified at the start -of these terms and all minor releases (ie releases of the form x.y.z) of that -version. - -The terms of this agreement are set out at: - http://www.povray.org/source-license.html -("Official Terms"). The Official Terms take precedence over this document to -the extent of any inconsistency. Except where POV has agreed with you in -writing to the contrary, the Official Terms are a complete statement of your -ability to modify the source code of the Licensed Version, to use any -modifications of the Licensed Version, and to distribute any modifications of -the Licensed Version. You may accept these terms by making any modification -to the Licensed Version, or by distributing any modification to the Licensed -Version. If you do not agree to be bound by these terms you must not make any -modifications to the source code of the Licensed Version and must not -distribute any modifications of the Licensed Version. - - 1. PERMITTED MODIFICATION AND USE - - 1.1. The source code of POV-Ray is provided to: promote the porting of - POV-Ray to hardware and operating systems which POV does not support; - promote experimentation and development of new features to the core - code which might eventually be incorporated into the official version; - and provide insight into the inner workings of the program for - educational purposes. - - 1.2. Except as expressly set out in this agreement, or permitted by another - agreement between you and POV, any use or modification of any POV-Ray - source code is expressly prohibited. - - 1.3. Subject to this clause 1.3 and the balance of this clause 1, you are - granted the privilege to modify and compile the source code of the - Licensed Version for your own personal use if such modification - fulfils one or more purposes set out in clause 1.1. Each output of - such a modification or compilation is called a "Modified Version" in - these terms and conditions. Nothing in these terms and conditions - gives you any rights or permissions to use, reproduce or modify any - part of the source code for any version of POV-Ray other than in a - modified version of POV-Ray. In particular, no portion of the source - code for the Licensed Version may, under any circumstances, be - incorporated into any other program (or separated out to form an - independent program) and all Modified Versions that you create must, - in substance, be modifications of the Licensed Version. - - 1.4. You may use any Modified Version that you alone have created only under - the conditions granted in the standard POV end-user license for the - Licensed Version from which the Modified Version was created. As at - July 2004, this licence may be found at: - http://www.povray.org/povlegal.doc. - Nothing in these terms permits any other person to use any Modified Version. - - 1.5. Neither the Licensed Version nor any Modified Version may be linked - into any other software package either at compile-time using (for - example) an object code linker nor at run-time as (for example) a DLL, - ActiveX control, OLE server, COM/DCOM server, or other remoting system - including, without limitation, any linkage that could blur the - end-user's perception of which program provides which functions. - - 1.6. To allow POV-Ray to communicate with outside programs, the official - versions of POV-Ray may include internal communication "hooks", often - called an Application Programming Interface, or API. Modification to - these APIs or other officially supported communication mechanisms (or - the addition of any new code or feature) for the purpose of avoidance - (or to assist others to avoid) the intent of this or any other POV - license is expressly prohibited. - - 2. CUSTOM VERSIONS - - 2.1. Strict conditions and restrictions are imposed if you wish to - distribute a modified version of POV-Ray, its documentation or other - parts of the package, including any translation of the documentation - into other languages or file formats. - - 2.2. For the purposes of these terms and conditions, a "Custom Version" - means a Modified Version which has all of the following characteristics: - - (a). it must have all of the functions of the Licensed Version with all - existing features, copyright notices, author attributions, all - Licence Agreements, etc., intact; - - (b). any reference to the software being an "Official Version" in any - files included in the Modified Version must be altered to clearly - state that it is not an official but an unofficial version; - - (c). when used by a user it must be clear to that user: - - (i). that the Modified Version is a version of POV-Ray that has - been modified, and does not appear to be another program - that happens to have POV-Ray or POV-Ray functionality - built-in; - - (ii). that the Modified Version is an unofficial version of - POV-Ray; - - (iii). who is the creator of the Modified Version; - - (d). the Modified Version must include accurate information in the - DISTRIBUTION_MESSAGE macros in the source file OPTOUT.H and must - prominently display this information. This information must at - least correctly identify who made the custom version. - - (e). It must display each copyright notice and credit screen which is - displayed by the Licensed Version and do so in a similar manner to - that of the Licensed Version. When each such notice or screen is - displayed, the Modified Version must indicate that the version is - a modified and unofficial version. In particular, if it is a - version of POV-Ray that contains splash screens or about boxes - (e.g. Windows, Macintosh) each splash screen and about box in the - Licensed Version must be present in the Modified Version and must - be rendered and presented in a similar manner; - - (f). if the Modified Version contains any feature that would cause a - POV-Ray scene source file that works on the Modified Version to - fail or otherwise work incorrectly on either the current official - version of POV-Ray, or on the Licensed Version, then the Modified - Version must check that the scene source file has a #version - directive that includes the 'unofficial' token, and must only - activate any variations from the Licensed Version (including, but - not limited to, new keywords) if that #version directive is - present. If that directive is not present, the Modified Version - must work in the same way as the Licensed Version. An example of a - correct 'unofficial' #version declaration is '#version unofficial - megapov 0.7 ;'. - - 2.3. It is the intent of POV to permit modifications to the Licensed Version - which are Custom Versions within the meaning of clause 2.2 and which - incorporate a means of being controlled by other software where that - other software has as its express primary purpose the ability to - control or co-ordinate POV-Ray (or other programs in general) remotely - for parallel or network rendering purposes. - - 3. CONDITIONS FOR DISTRIBUTION OF CUSTOM VERSIONS - - 3.1. You must not distribute any Modified Version to any person if that - Modified Version is not a Custom Version as defined by section 2.2. - - 3.2. You may distribute a Custom Version on the terms of the Distributor's - Licence Agreement for the Licensed Version as modified by this clause 3 - and with: - - (a). references to the Licensed Version read as references to the - Custom Version; and - - (b). references to the Software read as references to the Custom - Version; - - 3.3.

You may, at your option: - - (a). waive clause 4.5 of the standard distribution licence with respect - to distribution of the Custom Version; and - - (b). include as additional clauses, and without affecting any of the - existing provisions of the licence, limitation of liability - provisions in favour of yourself in the same terms as clauses 6 - and 7 of the standard distribution licence. - - 3.7. Where a Custom Version is distributed in accordance with the terms of - this agreement: - - (a). You must license each recipient of that Custom Version to use - those portions of the Custom Version in respect of which you hold - copyright on the terms of the standard POV end-user license for - the Licensed Version from which the Modified Version was created; - - (b). POV agrees to licence each recipient of that Custom Version to use - those portions of the Custom Version in respect of which POV holds - copyright on the terms of the standard POV end-user license for - the Licensed Version from which the Modified Version was created. - - 4.
