+BitTorrent Open Source License
+
+Version 1.0
+
+This BitTorrent Open Source License (the "License") applies to the BitTorrent client and related software products as
+well as any updates or maintenance releases of that software ("BitTorrent Products") that are distributed by
+BitTorrent, Inc. ("Licensor").  Any BitTorrent Product licensed pursuant to this License is a Licensed Product.
+Licensed Product, in its entirety, is protected by U.S. copyright law.  This License identifies the terms under which
+you may use, copy, distribute or modify Licensed Product. 
+
+Preamble
+
+This Preamble is intended to describe, in plain English, the nature and scope of this License.  However, this
+Preamble is not a part of this license.  The legal effect of this License is dependent only upon the terms of the
+License and not this Preamble.
+
+This License complies with the Open Source Definition and is derived from the Jabber Open Source License 1.0 (the
+"JOSL"), which has been approved by Open Source Initiative. Sections 4(c) and 4(f)(iii) from the JOSL have been
+dropped.
+
+This License provides that:
+
+1.      You may use, sell or give away the Licensed Product, alone or as a component of an aggregate software
+distribution containing programs from several different sources.  No royalty or other fee is required.
+
+2.      Both Source Code and executable versions of the Licensed Product, including Modifications made by previous
+Contributors, are available for your use.  (The terms "Licensed Product," "Modifications," "Contributors" and "Source
+Code" are defined in the License.)
+
+3.      You are allowed to make Modifications to the Licensed Product, and you can create Derivative Works from it.
+(The term "Derivative Works" is defined in the License.)
+
+4.      By accepting the Licensed Product under the provisions of this License, you agree that any Modifications you
+make to the Licensed Product and then distribute are governed by the provisions of this License.  In particular, you
+must make the Source Code of your Modifications available to others.
+
+5.      You may use the Licensed Product for any purpose, but the Licensor is not providing you any warranty
+whatsoever, nor is the Licensor accepting any liability in the event that the Licensed Product doesn't work properly
+or causes you any injury or damages.
+
+6.      If you sublicense the Licensed Product or Derivative Works, you may charge fees for warranty or support, or
+for accepting indemnity or liability obligations to your customers.  You cannot charge for the Source Code.
+
+7.      If you assert any patent claims against the Licensor relating to the Licensed Product, or if you breach any
+terms of the License, your rights to the Licensed Product under this License automatically terminate.
+
+You may use this License to distribute your own Derivative Works, in which case the provisions of this License will
+apply to your Derivative Works just as they do to the original Licensed Product.
+
+Alternatively, you may distribute your Derivative Works under any other OSI-approved Open Source license, or under a
+proprietary license of your choice.  If you use any license other than this License, however, you must continue to
+fulfill the requirements of this License (including the provisions relating to publishing the Source Code) for those
+portions of your Derivative Works that consist of the Licensed Product, including the files containing Modifications.
+
+New versions of this License may be published from time to time.  You may choose to  continue to use the license
+terms in this version of the License or those from the new version.  However, only the Licensor has the right to
+change the License terms as they apply to the Licensed Product. 
+
+This License relies on precise definitions for certain terms.  Those terms are defined when they are first used, and
+the definitions are repeated for your convenience in a Glossary at the end of the License.
+
+
+License Terms
+
+1.      Grant of License From Licensor.  Licensor hereby grants you a world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive
+license, subject to third party intellectual property claims, to do the following:
+
+a.       Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and distribute any Modifications created by such
+Contributor or portions thereof, in both Source Code or as an executable program, either on an unmodified basis or as
+part of Derivative Works.
+
+b.       Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by Contributor, to make, use, sell, offer for
+sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof, but solely to the extent that any
+such claim is necessary to enable you to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of
+Modifications or portions thereof or Derivative Works thereof.
+
+
+2. Grant of License to Modifications From Contributor. "Modifications" means any additions to or deletions from the
+substance or structure of (i) a file containing Licensed Product, or (ii) any new file that contains any part of
+Licensed Product. Hereinafter in this License, the term "Licensed Product" shall include all previous Modifications
+that you receive from any Contributor. By application of the provisions in Section 4(a) below, each person or entity
+who created or contributed to the creation of, and distributed, a Modification (a "Contributor") hereby grants you a
+world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license, subject to third party intellectual property claims, to do the
+following:
+
+   1. Use, reproduce, modify, display, perform, sublicense and distribute any Modifications created by such
+Contributor or portions thereof, in both Source Code or as an executable program, either on an unmodified basis or as
+part of Derivative Works.
+
+   2. Under claims of patents now or hereafter owned or controlled by Contributor, to make, use, sell, offer for
+sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of Modifications or portions thereof, but solely to the extent that any
+such claim is necessary to enable you to make, use, sell, offer for sale, have made, and/or otherwise dispose of
+Modifications or portions thereof or Derivative Works thereof. 
+
+
+3.      Exclusions From License Grant.  Nothing in this License shall be deemed to grant any rights to trademarks,
+copyrights, patents, trade secrets or any other intellectual property of Licensor or any Contributor except as
+expressly stated herein. No patent license is granted separate from the Licensed Product, for code that you delete
+from the Licensed Product, or for combinations of the Licensed Product with other software or hardware.  No right is
+granted to the trademarks of Licensor or any Contributor even if such marks are included in the Licensed Product.
+Nothing in this License shall be interpreted to prohibit Licensor from licensing under different terms from this
+License any code that Licensor otherwise would have a right to license.
+
+
+4.      Your Obligations Regarding Distribution. 
+
+a.       Application of This License to Your Modifications.  As an express condition for your use of the Licensed
+Product, you hereby agree that any Modifications that you create or to which you contribute, and which you
+distribute, are governed by the terms of this License including, without limitation, Section 2.  Any Modifications
+that you create or to which you contribute may be distributed only under the terms of this License or a future
+version of this License released under Section 7.  You must include a copy of this License with every copy of the
+Modifications you distribute.  You agree not to offer or impose any terms on any Source Code or executable version of
+the Licensed Product or Modifications that alter or restrict the applicable version of this License or the
+recipients' rights hereunder. However, you may include an additional document offering the additional rights
+described in Section 4(d).
+
+b.       Availability of Source Code.  You must make available, under the terms of this License, the Source Code of
+the Licensed Product and any Modifications that you distribute, either on the same media as you distribute any
+executable or other form of the Licensed Product, or via a mechanism generally accepted in the software development
+community for the electronic transfer of data (an "Electronic Distribution Mechanism").  The Source Code for any
+version of Licensed Product or Modifications that you distribute must remain available for at least twelve (12)
+months after the date it initially became available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent version of said
+Licensed Product or Modifications has been made available.  You are responsible for ensuring that the Source Code
+version remains available even if the Electronic Distribution Mechanism is maintained by a third party.
+
+c.       Intellectual Property Matters.  
+
+                                i.            Third Party Claims.  If you have knowledge that a license to a third
+party's intellectual property right is required to exercise the rights granted by this License, you must include a
+text file with the Source Code distribution titled "LEGAL" that describes the claim and the party making the claim in
+sufficient detail that a recipient will know whom to contact.  If you obtain such knowledge after you make any
+Modifications available as described in Section 4(b), you shall promptly modify the LEGAL file in all copies you make
+available thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups)
+reasonably calculated to inform those who received the Licensed Product from you that new knowledge has been
+obtained.
+
+                               ii.            Contributor APIs.  If your Modifications include an application
+programming interface ("API") and you have knowledge of patent licenses that are reasonably necessary to implement
+that API, you must also include this information in the LEGAL file.
+
+                              iii.            Representations.  You represent that, except as disclosed pursuant to
+4(c)(i) above, you believe that any Modifications you distribute are your original creations and that you have
+sufficient rights to grant the rights conveyed by this License.
+
+d.       Required Notices.  You must duplicate this License in any documentation you provide along with the Source
+Code of any Modifications you create or to which you contribute, and which you distribute, wherever you describe
+recipients' rights relating to Licensed Product.  You must duplicate the notice contained in Exhibit A (the "Notice")
+in each file of the Source Code of any copy you distribute of the Licensed Product. If you created a Modification,
+you may add your name as a Contributor to the Notice.  If it is not possible to put the Notice in a particular Source
+Code file due to its structure, then you must include such Notice in a location (such as a relevant directory file)
+where a user would be likely to look for such a notice.  You may choose to offer, and charge a fee for, warranty,
+support, indemnity or liability obligations to one or more recipients of Licensed Product. However, you may do so
+only on your own behalf, and not on behalf of the Licensor or any Contributor.  You must make it clear that any such
+warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligation is offered by you alone, and you hereby agree to indemnify the
+Licensor and every Contributor for any liability incurred by the Licensor or such Contributor as a result of
+warranty, support, indemnity or liability terms you offer.
+
+e.        Distribution of Executable Versions.  You may distribute Licensed Product as an executable program under a
+license of your choice that may contain terms different from this License provided (i) you have satisfied the
+requirements of Sections 4(a) through 4(d) for that distribution, (ii) you include a conspicuous notice in the
+executable version, related documentation and collateral materials stating that the Source Code version of the
+Licensed Product is available under the terms of this License, including a description of how and where you have
+fulfilled the obligations of Section 4(b), and (iii) you make it clear that any terms that differ from this License
+are offered by you alone, not by Licensor or any Contributor.  You hereby agree to indemnify the Licensor and every
+Contributor for any liability incurred by Licensor or such Contributor as a result of any terms you offer. 
+
+f.       Distribution of Derivative Works.  You may create Derivative Works (e.g., combinations of some or all of the
+Licensed Product with other code) and distribute the Derivative Works as products under any other license you select,
+with the proviso that the requirements of this License are fulfilled for those portions of the Derivative Works that
+consist of the Licensed Product or any Modifications thereto. 
+
+
+5.      Inability to Comply Due to Statute or Regulation.  If it is impossible for you to comply with any of the
+terms of this License with respect to some or all of the Licensed Product due to statute, judicial order, or
+regulation, then you must (i) comply with the terms of this License to the maximum extent possible, (ii) cite the
+statute or regulation that prohibits you from adhering to the License, and (iii) describe the limitations and the
+code they affect. Such description must be included in the LEGAL file described in Section 4(d), and must be included
+with all distributions of the Source Code.  Except to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such
+description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of ordinary skill at computer programming to be able to
+understand it. 
+
+
+6.      Application of This License.  This License applies to code to which Licensor or Contributor has attached the
+Notice in Exhibit A, which is incorporated herein by this reference.
+
+
+7.      Versions of This License.
+
+a.       New Versions.  Licensor may publish from time to time revised and/or new versions of the License. 
+
+b.       Effect of New Versions.  Once Licensed Product has been published under a particular version of the License,
+you may always continue to use it under the terms of that version.  You may also choose to use such Licensed Product
+under the terms of any subsequent version of the License published by Licensor.  No one other than Licensor has the
+right to modify the terms applicable to Licensed Product created under this License.
+
+c.       Derivative Works of this License.  If you create or use a modified version of this License, which you may do
+only in order to apply it to software that is not already a Licensed Product under this License, you must rename your
+license so that it is not confusingly similar to this License, and must make it clear that your license contains
+terms that differ from this License.  In so naming your license, you may not use any trademark of Licensor or any
+Contributor.
+
+
+8.      Disclaimer of Warranty.  LICENSED PRODUCT IS PROVIDED UNDER THIS LICENSE ON AN AS IS BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE LICENSED PRODUCT IS FREE
+OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
+PERFORMANCE OF THE LICENSED PRODUCT IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD LICENSED PRODUCT PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY RESPECT, YOU (AND
+NOT THE LICENSOR OR ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.  THIS
+DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF LICENSED PRODUCT IS AUTHORIZED
+HEREUNDER EXCEPT UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
+
+
+9.      Termination. 
+
+a.       Automatic Termination Upon Breach.  This license and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
+automatically if you fail to comply with the terms herein and fail to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of
+becoming aware of the breach.  All sublicenses to the Licensed Product that are properly granted shall survive any
+termination of this license.  Provisions that, by their nature, must remain in effect beyond the termination of this
+License, shall survive.
+
+b.       Termination Upon Assertion of Patent Infringement.  If you initiate litigation by asserting a patent
+infringement claim (excluding declaratory judgment actions) against Licensor or a Contributor (Licensor or
+Contributor against whom you file such an action is referred to herein as Respondent) alleging that Licensed Product
+directly or indirectly infringes any patent, then any and all rights granted by such Respondent to you under Sections
+1 or 2 of this License shall terminate prospectively upon sixty (60) days notice from Respondent (the "Notice
+Period") unless within that Notice Period you either agree in writing (i) to pay Respondent a mutually agreeable
+reasonably royalty for your past or future use of Licensed Product made by such Respondent, or (ii) withdraw your
+litigation claim with respect to Licensed Product against such Respondent.  If within said Notice Period a reasonable
+royalty and payment arrangement are not mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation claim is not
+withdrawn, the rights granted by Licensor to you under Sections 1 and 2 automatically terminate at the expiration of
+said Notice Period.
+
+c.       Reasonable Value of This License.  If you assert a patent infringement claim against Respondent alleging
+that Licensed Product directly or indirectly infringes any patent where such claim is resolved (such as by license or
+settlement) prior to the initiation of patent infringement litigation, then the reasonable value of the licenses
+granted by said Respondent under Sections 1 and 2 shall be taken into account in determining the amount or value of
+any payment or license.
+
+d.       No Retroactive Effect of Termination.  In the event of termination under Sections 9(a) or 9(b) above, all
+end user license agreements (excluding licenses to distributors and resellers) that have been validly granted by you
+or any distributor hereunder prior to termination shall survive termination.
+
+
+10.  Limitation of Liability.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
+CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE LICENSOR, ANY CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DISTRIBUTOR OF LICENSED PRODUCT, OR ANY SUPPLIER
+OF ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF
+ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR
+MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY
+RESULTING FROM SUCH PARTYS NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION.  SOME JURISDICTIONS DO
+NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY
+NOT APPLY TO YOU. 
+
+
+11.  Responsibility for Claims.  As between Licensor and Contributors, each party is responsible for claims and
+damages arising, directly or indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this License.  You agree to work with
+Licensor and Contributors to distribute such responsibility on an equitable basis.  Nothing herein is intended or
+shall be deemed to constitute any admission of liability.
+
+
+12.  U.S. Government End Users.  The Licensed Product is a commercial item, as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R.
+2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of commercial computer software and commercial computer software documentation, as such
+terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995).  Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through
+227.7202-4 (June 1995), all U.S. Government End Users acquire Licensed Product with only those rights set forth
+herein.
+
+
+13.  Miscellaneous.  This License represents the complete agreement concerning the subject matter hereof.  If any
+provision of this License is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary
+to make it enforceable.  This License shall be governed by California law provisions (except to the extent applicable
+law, if any, provides otherwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions.  You expressly agree that any litigation
+relating to this license shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts of the Northern District of
+California or the Superior Court of the County of Santa Clara, California (as appropriate), with venue lying in Santa
+Clara County, California, with the losing party responsible for costs including, without limitation, court costs and
+reasonable attorneys fees and expenses.  The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
+International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.  You and Licensor expressly waive any rights to a jury trial in
+any litigation concerning Licensed Product or this License.  Any law or regulation that provides that the language of
+a contract shall be construed against the drafter shall not apply to this License.
+
+
+14.  Definition of You in This License. You throughout this License, whether in upper or lower case, means an
+individual or a legal entity exercising rights under, and complying with all of the terms of, this License or a
+future version of this License issued under Section 7.  For legal entities, you includes any entity that controls, is
+controlled by, or is under common control with you.  For purposes of this definition, control means (i) the power,
+direct or indirect, to cause the direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii)
+ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
+
+
+15.  Glossary.  All defined terms in this License that are used in more than one Section of this License are repeated
+here, in alphabetical order, for the convenience of the reader.  The Section of this License in which each defined
+term is first used is shown in parentheses.
