Microsoft Patent Promise for .NET Libraries and Runtime Components
|
||
|
|
||
|
Microsoft Corporation and its affiliates ("Microsoft") promise not to assert
|
||
|
any .NET Patents against you for making, using, selling, offering for sale,
|
||
|
importing, or distributing Covered Code, as part of either a .NET Runtime or
|
||
|
as part of any application designed to run on a .NET Runtime.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you file, maintain, or voluntarily participate in any claim in a lawsuit
|
||
|
alleging direct or contributory patent infringement by any Covered Code, or
|
||
|
inducement of patent infringement by any Covered Code, then your rights under
|
||
|
this promise will automatically terminate.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This promise is not an assurance that (i) any .NET Patents are valid or
|
||
|
enforceable, or (ii) Covered Code does not infringe patents or other
|
||
|
intellectual property rights of any third party. No rights except those
|
||
|
expressly stated in this promise are granted, waived, or received by
|
||
|
Microsoft, whether by implication, exhaustion, estoppel, or otherwise.
|
||
|
This is a personal promise directly from Microsoft to you, and you agree as a
|
||
|
condition of benefiting from it that no Microsoft rights are received from
|
||
|
suppliers, distributors, or otherwise from any other person in connection with
|
||
|
this promise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Definitions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Covered Code" means those Microsoft .NET libraries and runtime components as
|
||
|
made available by Microsoft at https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr and
|
||
|
https://github.com/dotnet/corefx.
|
||
|
|
||
|
".NET Patents" are those patent claims, both currently owned by Microsoft and
|
||
|
acquired in the future, that are necessarily infringed by Covered Code. .NET
|
||
|
Patents do not include any patent claims that are infringed by any Enabling
|
||
|
Technology, that are infringed only as a consequence of modification of
|
||
|
Covered Code, or that are infringed only by the combination of Covered Code
|
||
|
with third party code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
".NET Runtime" means any compliant implementation in software of (a) all of
|
||
|
the required parts of the mandatory provisions of Standard ECMA-335 – Common
|
||
|
Language Infrastructure (CLI); and (b) if implemented, any additional
|
||
|
functionality in Microsoft's .NET Framework, as described in Microsoft's API
|
||
|
documentation on its MSDN website. For example, .NET Runtimes include
|
||
|
Microsoft's .NET Framework and those portions of the Mono Project compliant
|
||
|
with (a) and (b).
|
||
|
|
||
|
"Enabling Technology" means underlying or enabling technology that may be
|
||
|
used, combined, or distributed in connection with Microsoft's .NET Framework
|
||
|
or other .NET Runtimes, such as hardware, operating systems, and applications
|
||
|
that run on .NET Framework or other .NET Runtimes.
