Affero General Public License History: The original Bacula code was Copyright Kern Sibbald and John Walker. After November 2004, it became Copyright Kern Sibbald, and finally, the copyright was transferred to the Free Software Foundation Europe on 15 November 2006. The license was changed from GPLv2 to AGPLv3 on 24 July 2010. Trademark: The name Bacula is a registered trademark of Kern Sibbald. "Fair use" of the trademark is permitted following standard customs that any prominent use (e.g. cover of a book) or the first use of the name Bacula will include a trademark symbol. If you fork the Bacula project and make any significant changes to the functionality of Bacula, to avoid confusion between your fork and Bacula, you must give your fork another name. You are not required to remove all references to Bacula in the source code or "fair uses" in the documentation. =================================== What follows is information from the authors of the code: License: To the best of our knowledge, all code used in Bacula, which is copyrighted by a third party, has licenses that are compatible with the OpenSSL license, and so given the exceptions that we have made to the AGPLv3 above, Bacula can be freely linked and distributed with the OpenSSL libraries, and in binary form with the Microsoft VSS libraries. Intellectual Property rights: Recipient understands that although each Contributor to Bacula grants the licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are provided by any Contributor that the Program does not infringe the patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity. Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual property rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is required to allow Recipient to distribute the Program, it is Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before distributing the Program. Copyrights: Each Contributor to Bacula represents that to its knowledge it has sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.
