The Open Source Definition (开源定义)


Introduction(说明)

Open source doesn't just mean access to the source code. The distribution terms of open-source software must comply with the following criteria:

开放源代码并不仅仅意味着对源代码的访问权。开放源代码软件的发布条款必须满足以下条件:


1. Free Redistribution(自由地再发布)


The license shall not restrict any party from selling or giving away the software as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources. The license shall not require a royalty or other fee for such sale.

如果被发布的软件是由不同来源的程序组成的,许可证不得限制任何当事人或组织(party)销售或赠送作为被发布软件成分之一的开放源码软件。许可证不得从此项销售中索取使用费或其它任何费用。


Rationale: By constraining the license to require free redistribution, we eliminate the temptation to throw away many long-term gains in order to make a few short-term sales dollars. If we didn't do this, there would be lots of pressure for cooperators to defect.

2. Source Code(源代码)


The program must include source code, and must allow distribution in source code as well as compiled form. Where some form of a product is not distributed with source code, there must be a well-publicized means of obtaining the source code for no more than a reasonable reproduction cost preferably, downloading via the Internet without charge. The source code must be the preferred form in which a programmer would modify the program. Deliberately obfuscated source code is not allowed. Intermediate forms such as the output of a preprocessor or translat
