COPYING
=======
Describes the terms under which Nuttx is distributed. A copy of the BSD-
style licensing is included in this file. In my words -- I believe that you
should free to use NuttX in any environment, private, private, commercial,
open, closed, etc. provided only that you respect the modest copyright
notices as described in license (below), respect Trademarks, and include a
copy of the BSD license. Please feel free to contact me if you have any
icensing concerns.
Tool Licenses
-------------
Tools under the nuttx/tools directory are not intended for binary
distribution. You may find other licensing on individual tools in that
directory. If you intend to redistribute these tools in binary form, please
respect the individual license of each tool as identified in the file header
of the tool source files.
Copyright Date Notation
-----------------------
Copyright information is provided in the header of each file. This
copyright information includes the name of the copyright holder and the
year(s) in which copyrighted additions to the file were made to the file.
A comma (',') is used to separate years in the list of years. A hyphen ('-')
is used as a more compact notation when additions were made over several
consecutive years. So for example, "2007, 2011" would mean that copyrighted
additions were made during the years of 2007 and 2011 whereas "2007-2011"
would indicate copyrighted additions in the years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010,
and 2011.
Copyright Line Continuation
---------------------------
Copy information which exceeds the usable line length may be broken and
continued on the following line, such as:

FAT Long File Names
===================
NOTE: If CONFIG_FAT_LFN is defined in your NuttX configuration file, then
there may be some legal, patent issues. The following was extracted from
the entry "File Allocation Table from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
"On December 3, 2003 Microsoft announced it would be offering licenses
for use of its FAT specification and 'associated intellectual property',
at the cost of a US$0.25 royalty per unit sold, with a $250,000 maximum
royalty per license agreement.
o "U.S. Patent 5,745,902 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5745902) -
Method and system for accessing a file using file names having
different file name formats. ...
o "U.S. Patent 5,579,517 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5579517) -
Common name space for long and short filenames. ...
o "U.S. Patent 5,758,352 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=5758352) -
Common name space for long and short filenames. ...
o "U.S. Patent 6,286,013 (http://www.google.com/patents?vid=6286013) -
Method and system for providing a common name space for long and
short file names in an operating system. ...
"Many technical commentators have concluded that these patents only cover
FAT implementations that include support for long filenames, and that
removable solid state media and consumer devices only using short names
would be unaffected. ..."
This Wikipedia entry has been updated with recent legal decisions in favor
of Microsoft. Refer to:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table#Patents
So you have been forewarned: Use the long filename at your own risk!

Apache NuttX is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF),
sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects
until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision
making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.
While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability
of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
Some of the incubating project's releases may not be fully compliant with ASF policy. For
example, releases may have incomplete or un-reviewed licensing conditions. What follows is
a list of known issues the project is currently aware of (note that this list, by definition,
is likely to be incomplete):
* Releases may have incomplete licensing conditions.
If you are planning to incorporate this work into your product/project, please be aware that
you will need to conduct a thorough licensing review to determine the overall implications of
including this work. For the current status of this project through the Apache Incubator
