11. Patents.
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who 
authorizes use under this License of the 
Program or a work on which the Program is 
based. The work thus licensed is called the 
contributor's "contributor version".
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all 
patent claims owned or controlled by the 
contributor, whether already acquired or 
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by 
some manner, permitted by this License, of 
making, using, or selling its contributor 
version, but do not include claims that would 
be infringed only as a consequence of further 
modification of the contributor version. For 
purposes of this definition, "control" includes 
the right to grant patent sublicenses in a 
manner consistent with the requirements of 
this License.
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, 
worldwide, royalty-free patent license under 
the contributor's essential patent claims, to 
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and 
otherwise run, modify and propagate the 
contents of its contributor version.
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent 
license" is any express agreement or 
commitment, however denominated, not to 
enforce a patent (such as an express 
permission to practice a patent or covenant not 
to sue for patent infringement). To "grant" 
such a patent license to a party means to make 
such an agreement or commitment not to 
enforce a patent against the party.
If you convey a covered work, knowingly 
relying on a patent license, and the 
Corresponding Source of the work is not 
available for anyone to copy, free of charge 
and under the terms of this License, through a 
publicly available network server or other 
readily accessible means, then you must either 
(1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so 
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of 
the benefit of the patent license for this 
particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner 
consistent with the requirements of this 
License, to extend the patent license to 
downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" 
means you have actual knowledge that, but for 
the patent license, your conveying the covered 
work in a country, or your recipient's use of the 
covered work in a country, would infringe one 
or more identifiable patents in that country that 
you have reason to believe are valid.
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single 
transaction or arrangement, you convey, or 
propagate by procuring conveyance of, a 
covered work, and grant a patent license to 
some of the parties receiving the covered work 
authorizing them to use, propagate, modify or 
convey a specific copy of the covered work, 
then the patent license you grant is 
automatically extended to all recipients of the 
covered work and works based on it.
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does 
not include within the scope of its coverage, 
prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on 
the non-exercise of one or more of the rights 
that are specifically granted under this 
License. You may not convey a covered work 
if you are a party to an arrangement with a 
third party that is in the business of distributing 
software, under which you make payment to 
the third party based on the extent of your 
activity of conveying the work, and under 
which the third party grants, to any of the 
parties who would receive the covered work 
from you, a discriminatory patent license (a) in 
connection with copies of the covered work 
conveyed by you (or copies made from those 
copies), or (b) primarily for and in connection 
with specific products or compilations that 
contain the covered work, unless you entered 
into that arrangement, or that patent license 
was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as 
excluding or limiting any implied license or 
other defenses to infringement that may 
otherwise be available to you under applicable 
patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
