Bedrock Non-Commercial License v1.0
===================================
Version 1.0, December 2015
Summary
=======
This license allows the licensee to use Bedrock and its software modules
for non-commercial purposes such as self-study, research, personal
projects, or for evaluation purposes. If the licensee uses Bedrock
directly or indirectly to generate revenue, or to provide products or
services to more than 500 people (users), the licensee must immediately
obtain a non-profit or commercial license.
Examples
========
These are examples of cases that are allowed by this license:
* The licensee is an individual that creates Bedrock-dependent software for
personal use only.
* The licensee is an individual or group of students/researchers that uses
Bedrock to experiment with an idea for a non-commercial project.
* The licensee is a startup company that prototypes a Bedrock-dependent
product before they have cash flow and will be testing the prototype
software with less than 500 users. The service will not generate revenue
of any kind.
* The licensee is a for-profit organization that creates a product or
service that is used by less than 500 users and is built with or
integrates with Bedrock. The service must be exclusively provided for free
and no parent, subsidiary, agent, or affiliate organization may profit
from its use.
These cases require a non-profit or commercial license:
* The licensee is a non-profit that receives funding to create and/or run a
Bedrock-dependent service.
* The licensee is a startup company with Bedrock-dependent software that is
funded by another organization.
* The licensee is a startup company that is going into production with
Bedrock-dependent software.
* The licensee has more than 500 users using a Bedrock-dependent service
either directly or indirectly.
