OSGi-Specification-2.0

OSGi Specification License, Version 2.0.

License Grant

OSGi Alliance (“OSGi”) hereby grants you a fully-paid, non-exclusive, non-transferable, 
worldwide, limited license (without the right to sublicense), under OSGi’s applicable 
intellectual property rights to view, download, and reproduce this OSGi Specification 
(“Specification”) which follows this License Agreement (“Agreement”). You are not 
authorized to create any derivative work of the Specification. However, to the extent that an 
implementation of the Specification would necessarily be a derivative work of the Specification, 
OSGi also grants you a perpetual, non-exclusive, worldwide, fully paid-up, royalty free, limited 
license (without the right to sublicense) under any applicable copyrights, to create and/or 
distribute an implementation of the Specification that: (i) fully implements the Specification 
including all its required interfaces and functionality; (ii) does not modify, subset, superset or 
otherwise extend the OSGi Name Space, or include any public or protected packages, classes, Java 
interfaces, fields or methods within the OSGi Name Space other than those required and authorized 
by the Specification. An implementation that does not satisfy limitations (i)-(ii) is not 
considered an implementation of the Specification, does not receive the benefits of this license, 
and must not be described as an implementation of the Specification. An implementation of the 
Specification must not claim to be a compliant implementation of the Specification unless it passes 
the OSGi Compliance Tests for the Specification in accordance with OSGi processes. “OSGi Name 
Space” shall mean the public class or interface declarations whose names begin with “org.osgi" 
or any recognized successors or replacements thereof.

OSGi Participants (as such term is defined in the OSGi Intellectual Property Rights Policy) have 
made non-assert and licensing commitments regarding patent claims necessary to implement the 
Specification, if any, under the OSGi Intellectual Property Rights Policy which is available for 
examination on the OSGi public web site (www.osgi.org).

Covenant Not to Assert

As a material condition to this license you hereby agree, to the extent that you have any patent 
claims which are necessarily infringed by an implementation of the Specification, not to assert any 
such patent claims against the creation, distribution or use of an implementation of the 
Specification.
