SIXX License

Copyright © 2023 XPUB

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble

The SIXX license is a free, copyleft license for rituals, games, books and consolations in any medium, both software and hardware.

For the purposes of this paper, licensing is understood as a responsibility towards an audience, towards each other and towards other people who might want to contribute to, use or amplify any work.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Basic Permissions.

All rights under this License are granted for the term of copyright and are irrevocable provided the stated conditions are met.

This License explicitly affirms your unlimited permission to use any software, publication, or any ritual or game-related medium. Any output from running a covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its content, constitutes a covered work.

This License acknowledges your rights of fair use or other equivalents as provided by copyright law.

You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey, without conditions, so long as your license otherwise remains in force.

You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.

Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed.

2. Terms for Attribution.

You may convey a work based on anything under the License, or the modifications to produce it from the licensed material in the form of source code under the following, provided that the work also meets all of these conditions:

    1. You must give prominent notice of the original intent of the product.
  • You must also follow the guidelines indicated in section 4a.

3. Terms for Commercial Use.

Any work under the License may only be used for commercial purposes, intended as used with the purpose of commercial advantage or monetary compensation, provided that it meets all the following conditions:

    1. Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability exactly as in the terms of sections 5 and 6 of this License;
    1. Requiring preservation of the initial specified spiritual and emotional purpose of the original product;
    1. Written notice must be given to the initial publisher of any following commercial use;
    1. Use of the license and any product under this license is specifically strictly forbidden to any person who falls under the umbrella of being one of Ada’s past romantic partners.

    • 1e. In case of usage by any of the prior specified parties, the publisher of the License has to be informed.

    • 2e. Permission for the usage of the License or anything covered by the license to anybody identifiable upon reasonable suspicion as a previous romantic partner of Ada may be granted by Ada alone.

    1. Identification of yourself as a party wishing to use the SIXX license for commercial use is necessary, through means of contacting any XPUB 2023 student or teacher.

4. Additional Permissions.

Additional permissions are terms that supplement the terms of this License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions. Additional permissions that apply to the entire Publication shall be treated as though they were included in this License to the extent that they are valid under applicable law.

The following conditions must therefore be additionally met:

4a. The true nature of the license for this document cannot be understood through reading alone but only by entering into harmony with the rights-holders of its production and distribution.

4b. To obtain the power to reproduce any document under the SIXX license, the product has to be held firmly in front of the body of the new rightsholder(s) (henceforth referred to as “the alchemical apprentice(s)” or simply “the apprentice(s)”), who should close their eyes. The alchemical apprentice(s) should whisper the statement of control silently to themselves seven times or until clarity of mind is achieved. Through the objects’ contact with the skin of the apprentice(s) during this incantation, they will begin to absorb its knowledge, in addition to the associated rights and intellectual property in the eyes of the effective national jurisdiction. When they start to feel an increased level of unity with the secrets of the publication, the alchemical apprentice(s) should conceal the publication within their garment to return it to their laboratory for further investigation. By this means the apprentice(s) shall have the glory of the whole world, and thereby all obscurity shall fly from them.

You, intended as License claimer, may place additional permissions on material added by you to a covered work for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for the material you add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of that material) supplement the terms of this License with additional terms.

5. Disclaimer of Warranty.

THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THIS PUBLICATION TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PUBLICATION “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PUBLICATION IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PUBLICATION PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

6. Limitation of Liability.

IN NO EVENT, UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING, WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS THE PUBLICATION AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PUBLICATION (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PUBLICATION TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PUBLICATIONS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

7. Interpretation of Sections 5 and 6.

If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms, reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the Publication unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a copy of the Publication in return for a fee.
