straywild Discovery Server contributor terms

This project does not accept unsolicited contributions. These terms are retained for contributions previously accepted after their publication and for specific future work expressly invited in writing by the straywild owners. They are not a request or standing invitation for submissions and do not retroactively change ownership of earlier work or replace a separately signed agreement.

You retain copyright in your original contribution. By submitting it, you represent that you created it or otherwise have authority to grant these permissions, that you disclosed relevant third-party material, and that its submission does not knowingly violate another partys rights.

You license an accepted contribution under the GNU General Public License, version 3 or, at the recipients option, any later version (GPL-3.0-or-later).

You also grant each recipient a perpetual, worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free patent license under patent claims you can license that are necessarily infringed by your contribution alone or by its combination with this project as submitted. This does not cover unrelated later combinations.

Submitting a contribution does not create project ownership, employment, agency, partnership, fiduciary duties, or a right to compensation. A separate written agreement is required for any such arrangement.

Posting, uploading, linking, or emailing unsolicited material does not make it an accepted contribution, and unsolicited material will not be reviewed. For work expressly invited in writing, delivering the requested material after receiving notice of these terms records agreement to them. Maintainers must retain the written invitation and affirmative agreement in a durable record.
