Project Filelist for Free Source Music License

Free Source Music License (Version 0.2) Preamble Modern recording artists use rhythms and melodies that were written long ago. Snippets of ancient ballads may occur in hit singles. In recognition of this history, this license will allow others to use the sheet music of other musicians in their own artistic endeavours. TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION 0.This License applies to any musical work or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright and publishing rights holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Free Source Music License. The "Musical Work", below, refers to any work of music or musical composition, with or without words, and includes any compilation thereof, and a "work based on the Musical Work" means either the Musical Work or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Musical Work or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) "Sheet Music" refers to the musical notation on which the Musical Work is based. Each licensee is addressed as "you". Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The acts of performing, broadcasting, and playing the Musical Work are not restricted, and the output from the Musical Work is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Musical Work (independent of having been made by performing, broadcasting, or playing the Musical Work). 1.You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Musical Work's Sheet Music as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Musical Work a copy of this License along with the Musical Work. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 2.You may modify your copy or copies of the Musical Work or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Musical Work, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, under the condition that you cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Musical Work or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Musical Work, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Musical Work, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Musical Work. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Musical Work with the Program (or with a work based on the Musical Work) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License. 3.You may copy and distribute the Musical Work (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in the form of a sound recording under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a)Accompany it with the complete corresponding Sheet Music (in physical or machine-readable), which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, b)Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete copy of the corresponding Sheet Music, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange. 4.You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Musical Work except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Musical Work is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance. 5.You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Musical Work or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Musical Work (or any work based on the Musical Work), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Musical Work or works based on it. 6.Each time you redistribute the Musical Work (or any work based on the Musical Work), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Musical Work subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License. 7.If the distribution and/or use of the Musical Work is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License. 8.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Musical Work into other free Musical Works whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission.
